Hi. We will be in Bermuda for 3 days in August on a Carnival cruise and are trying to come up with a game plan. Never having been there before, we are seeking advice on our plans. Would really appreciate some input. Thanks in Advance.
Tuesday - get off ship at 10. Take Ferry to St. George Island. Walk around the downtown area, see St. Peters Church, visit Unfinished Church, have lunch at Wahoo's, spend the afternoon at Tobacco Bay Beach. We've seen enough forts so was not planning to do any forts unless there is one that is highly recommended. Any other places we should see here? We will return to the ship for dinner then take a Nighttime Bermuda Triangle History Shipwreck Glass Bottom Boat excursion.
Wednesday - We are planning on getting off ship early, taking a ferry to Hamilton City, get on a bus to see Crystal and Fantasy Caves, enjoy a Rum Swizzle at the Swizzle Inn, walk to the Blue Hole Park. Then head back to Hamilton City to shop. Plan to eat dinner at Pickled Onion on Front Street, hoping to catch the Harbor Nights Festival from the upstairs balcony and then walk around and shop (and eat) at the Festival. Take ferry back to the ship
Thursday - Our back on board time is 4pm so we were planning to take the bus to Horseshoe Bay for a little while, maybe walk to Gibbs Lighthouse?, bus back and drop off at Glass Beach. If time permits, we would visit the Commissioners House and National Museum before returning to ship.
Does this itinerary sound reasonable and doable? Are there other things that we should consider seeing? Any advice would be welcomed and appreciated. TIA
Lynn
