I only have time for one attraction in the City of Hamilton! The City Hall

No, I didn’t know that...

Bermuda is the oldest British Colony, has the most churches and golf courses per capita of any location in the world and Bermuda also has one of the highest concentrations of limestone caves in the world.

T US

DO While travelling to or from St. George’s, stop off and explore Crystal & Fantasy Caves. Feeling the heat? Let a nice ice cream cone come to the rescue at Bailey’s Ice Cream Parlour (cash only). There is a walkway between the caves and Bailey’s, perfect for a quick journey and suitable for the whole family. Great place to get a few nice photos too! Swizzle Inn is located across the road from Baileys.

Enjoy a guided tour down 83 steps and journey along a floating bridge gazing at some of the most incredible crystal formations in the world, overlooking deep, clear natural pools of azure turquoise water. Find something special at Fiddlesticks Gift Shop and sit off and treat yourself at Café Olé before you are on your way. The Story... In 1905, two young teenagers named Carl Gibbons and Edgar Hollis were engaged in a spirited game of cricket. One of the lads struck the ball with ferocity and it disappeared into a hole several yards away. This ball was a prized possession and no effort was spared at attempting to retrieve it. As one of the boys crawled down deeper and deeper, it became apparent that this was not your ordinary hole. What he found was beyond his or the Wilkinson family’s wildest dreams. It was an underground world of delicate splendor with magnificent crystal formations of every size and shape surrounding a clear lake 55 feet deep.

Open Daily. Guided half hour tours leave every 15 minutes. Entry is $22 one cave, $30 two caves. Children under 12 $10 ($12 both caves) (under 5 years free) Take bus #s 1, 3, 10 or 11 from Hamilton or St. George’s.

Alexandra Battery is a fortification built in the 1860s. Just below the fort, is Buildings Bay, well known for its colourful sea glass that washes ashore (please don’t take these precious treasures). Drew’s Bay is another east end hidden treasure. Snorkeling is good and a wonderful place for a family picnic. Fort St. Catherine contains cannons, guns, military exhibits and more, not to mention stunning panoramic views of the east end shoreline. Gates Bay, the gorgeous palm strewn beach alongside this historic fort and serviced by the operators of Tobacco Bay, is complete with sun loungers, snorkeling, cold beverages and quick snacks from the new Cannon Bar concession. The Beach House at Blackbeard’s Hideout, located at Achilles Bay, is in the shade of historic Fort St. Catherine, the most easterly point of the Bermuda islands. A perfect stop for a cold drink, lunch or a stunning sunset dinner.

This is near, where Sir George Somers and his men & women landed in 1609 after their ship Sea Venture was wrecked at a nearby reef. While they later continued their journey to Jamestown, two men were left behind. Later in 1612 the official settlement began in Bermuda. The Town St. George was the capital of Bermuda until 1815 when The City of Hamilton became the new capital.
