Five Things to Love about Bermuda

 

On July 13 Alesia and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary in style on the beautiful island of Bermuda. We were there for a week, Saturday to Saturday, July 12-19. 

Earlier this year the airline Bermudair began a once a week direct flight from Charleston to Bermuda’s capital Hamilton. The direct flight takes only two hours covering the nearly 900 mile distance. 

Bermuda is known for having beautiful beaches, turquoise water and pink sand. I took this photograph at Horseshoe Bay. Keep reading to see more pink sand we found at Warwick Long Bay beach. 

Snorkeling at the many beaches and bays is also popular. We were definitely down for snorkeling having done some during our several Caribbean Island vacations years ago. Our last Caribbean trip was the British Virgin Islands in 2017. 

I had not used my GoPro Black 8 model since then and needed to review how to use it. I did experience some malfunctions the first time or two in Bermuda but kept at it and have many nice captures, video and stills like the image above. 

Alesia is a great swimmer and was very comfortable out there. I felt better wearing an inflatable “floaty” for my safety.
