Why Bermuda? The Unmistakable Allure of the Pink-Sand Isles

Bermuda is not your typical Caribbean island. In fact, it’s not in the Caribbean at all. This semi-tropical archipelago sits gracefully in the Atlantic Ocean, a proud British Overseas Territory with a culture all its own. This unique position gives it a distinct character—a refined blend of British civility and spirited island life.

What truly sets a Bermuda cruise apart is the gift of time. Unlike itineraries that hop from port to port, most Royal Caribbean sailings to Bermuda feature an overnight or multi-night stay at the Royal Naval Dockyard. This isn't a fleeting, few-hour visit. It's a deep, immersive experience. You have the freedom to explore at your own pace, from sun-drenched mornings on the beach to romantic dinners ashore, followed by a late-night stroll back to the comfort of your ship. You can live like a local, not just a visitor.

• Pristine Pink-Sand Beaches: The iconic, blush-colored sands of beaches like Horseshoe Bay and Warwick Long Bay are a natural wonder, created by crushed coral and shells.
• Rich History & Culture: Explore the UNESCO World Heritage site of St. George's, the oldest continuously inhabited English town in the New World, or wander the vibrant, shop-lined streets of Hamilton.
• World-Class Recreation: Bermuda boasts more golf courses per square mile than anywhere else in the world, alongside legendary snorkeling, shipwreck diving, and sailing opportunities.
• Effortless Sophistication: From the quintessential Bermuda shorts paired with a blazer to the ritual of afternoon tea, the island exudes an air of relaxed elegance.

The beauty of a Royal Caribbean cruise is the power of choice. Your days at sea are a blank canvas.

A Floating Oasis: Life Aboard Your Royal Caribbean Ship

Imagine a world-class resort that gently carries you across the azure sea to paradise. That's the reality onboard a Royal Caribbean ship. Every detail is crafted for your comfort, entertainment, and delight. Let’s explore what awaits you.

Staterooms: Your Private Sanctuary at Sea

After a day of sun and exploration, your stateroom is your personal haven. Royal Caribbean offers a range of accommodations to suit every preference and budget.

• Interior Staterooms: The most affordable option, perfect for travelers who plan to spend most of their time enjoying the ship's amenities. Many newer ships feature innovative "virtual balconies" with real-time ocean views.
• Ocean View Staterooms: A picture window offers breathtaking views of the sea, allowing you to watch the world go by from the comfort of your room.
• Balcony Staterooms: The most popular choice, and for good reason. A private balcony invites you to enjoy morning coffee, pre-dinner cocktails, or simply the serene sound of the waves. It’s your own slice of oceanfront real estate.
• Suites: For the ultimate in luxury, a suite offers expansive living space, premium amenities, and often includes perks like priority boarding and dedicated concierge service.

A Culinary Voyage: Dining for Every Palate

Forget what you think you know about cruise food. Royal Caribbean has revolutionized onboard dining, offering a dizzying array of complimentary and specialty options that rival the best restaurants on land.

Your cruise fare includes access to a wealth of delicious choices. The multi-level Main Dining Room offers a rotating menu of exquisite multi-course meals each evening, served with classic elegance. For a more casual affair, the Windjammer Café presents a sprawling buffet of international cuisines for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Add in cafés for pizza, pastries, and sandwiches, and you'll never go hungry.

For a truly memorable meal, consider one of the specialty restaurants. Indulge in a perfectly seared filet at Chops Grille, the signature steakhouse. Savor the rustic, family-style flavors of Italy at Giovanni's Table, or embark on a whimsical culinary adventure at Wonderland. These elevated experiences are worth the small upcharge and can transform a great vacation into an unforgettable one. Our team can help you pre-book dining packages to ensure you get the best value.

Thrills and Chills: Daytime Activities & Relaxation

A day at sea is a day of endless possibilities. For the thrill-seekers, many ships feature signature Royal Caribbean attractions like the FlowRider® surf simulator, a towering rock-climbing wall, and even ice-skating rinks. The pool deck is the vibrant heart of the ship, with multiple pools, whirlpools, and live music creating a festive atmosphere.

For those seeking tranquility, the adults-only Solarium offers a peaceful, glass-canopied retreat with its own pool and comfortable loungers. The Vitality Spa is a sanctuary of serenity, offering a full menu of massages, facials, and wellness treatments. Or perhaps your idea of bliss is simply finding a quiet corner in the library with a good book and an ocean view.

Dazzling Nights: Entertainment After Dark

When the sun sets, the ship comes alive with world-class entertainment. Take in a full-scale Broadway-style production in the main theater, be mesmerized by the high-diving and acrobatic feats at the AquaTheater on select ships, or laugh out loud at a comedy club. The vibrant Casino Royale offers slots and table games for those feeling lucky, while numerous bars and lounges provide the perfect ambiance for every mood, from lively pubs with live guitarists to sophisticated cocktail bars.

Island Time: Maximizing Your Days in Bermuda

Waking up to the sight of Bermuda from your stateroom is a moment you won't soon forget. Your ship will dock at the historic Royal Naval Dockyard, a destination in itself and the perfect launchpad for your island adventures.

Arrival at the Royal Naval Dockyard: Your Gateway to Adventure

Once a strategic outpost for the British Royal Navy, the Dockyard is now a bustling hub of shops, restaurants, museums, and activities. You can explore the National Museum of Bermuda, browse the colorful crafts at the Clocktower Mall, or even go for a swim at the nearby Snorkel Park Beach. The Dockyard is also the main transportation hub, with easy access to ferries and buses that can whisk you away to other parts of the island.

The Legendary Pink Sands of Horseshoe Bay

No trip to Bermuda is complete without a visit to Horseshoe Bay Beach. Consistently ranked among the best beaches in the world, its wide, crescent-shaped stretch of pale pink sand is a breathtaking sight. The turquoise water is calm and inviting, perfect for swimming. For a more secluded experience, follow the sandy path east to discover a series of smaller, hidden coves like Port Royal Cove, affectionately known as "Baby Beach" for its shallow, protected waters.

History and Charm in St. George's & Hamilton

A ferry ride from the Dockyard will transport you to two of Bermuda's most captivating towns.

• St. George's: Step back in time as you wander the narrow, cobblestone lanes of this UNESCO World Heritage site. Discover historic sites like St. Peter's Church, Their Majesties Chappell, the oldest Anglican church in continuous use outside the British Isles.
• Hamilton: The island's capital is a vibrant center of commerce and culture. Stroll along the iconic Front Street, with its rows of colorful colonial buildings housing upscale boutiques, galleries, and restaurants. It's the perfect place to shop for souvenirs and enjoy a waterfront lunch.

Beyond the Beaches: Unforgettable Excursions

Bermuda's beauty extends far beyond its coastline. Consider one of these unique shore excursions to make your visit truly special:

• Crystal & Fantasy Caves: Descend into a subterranean wonderland of stunning crystal formations and deep, clear underground lakes.
• Catamaran & Snorkel Tours: Sail the turquoise waters, stopping to snorkel over vibrant coral reefs and mysterious shipwrecks teeming with marine life.
• Scooter Rentals: For the truly adventurous, renting a scooter is the classic way to explore the island's winding roads and hidden gems at your own pace.
• Taste of Bermuda: Indulge in the island's culinary scene, making sure to sample a traditional fish chowder seasoned with sherry peppers and black rum, and wash it down with a classic Dark 'n' Stormy or a Rum Swizzle.

Frequently Asked Questions about Cruising to Bermuda

What is the best time of year to cruise to Bermuda?

The peak season for Bermuda cruises is from April to October when the weather is warmest and ideal for swimming and beach activities. The shoulder months of April, May, and October often offer a great balance of pleasant weather and fewer crowds. Hurricane season in the Atlantic typically runs from June to November, but modern cruise ships have advanced weather tracking and can adjust itineraries for safety if needed.

What should I pack for a Bermuda cruise?

Pack lightweight clothing like shorts, t-shirts, sundresses, and swimsuits for your time in port. Don't forget essentials like sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and comfortable walking shoes. For evenings on the ship, "smart casual" is appropriate for most dining venues (e.g., slacks and a collared shirt for men, a dress or nice top and pants for women). Some itineraries have "formal nights," so you may want to pack a suit or cocktail dress if you wish to participate.

Is a Royal Caribbean cruise good for families?

Absolutely. Royal Caribbean is renowned for its family-friendly atmosphere. The complimentary Adventure Ocean youth program offers supervised activities for children aged 3-17, divided into age-appropriate groups. With amenities like pools, mini-golf, rock-climbing walls, and family-friendly dining options, there is something to keep every member of the family entertained.

What's included in my Royal Caribbean cruise fare?

Your cruise fare is remarkably inclusive. It covers your stateroom accommodation, most meals and snacks (in the Main Dining Room, Windjammer Café, and other complimentary venues), select beverages (like tap water, basic coffee, tea, and some juices), and the vast majority of onboard entertainment and activities, including theater shows, live music, pools, and fitness center access.

Do I need a passport for a Bermuda cruise?

For "closed-loop" cruises (sailings that begin and end in the same U.S. port), U.S. citizens can technically travel with a government-issued photo ID and an original birth certificate. However, we strongly recommend that all travelers have a valid passport. In the unlikely event of an emergency that requires you to fly home from a foreign port, a passport is mandatory.
