You actually wont arrive until about Monday morning right? Weather predictions can change and most likely will. Dont worry too much about rain. On both of my cruises to Bermuda we had rain predicted and they ended up being fast passing showers that were no trouble at all.

Look at it this way. Bermuda has no natural water supply (springs, rivers) so all of the water used on the island is from the rain which is captured in cisterns. If it rains, just say it is refilling your glass! :)

For our cruise at the end of July, weather.com was reporting showers everyday in Bermuda! I was very nervous, but when we got there, the weather was absolutely perfect everyday, with sun and hot, but not oppressive temperatures. Don't worry- there's nothing you can do about the weather anyway, so just hope for the best and enjoy your cruise!

Weather, even in Bermuda, is difficult to predict, especially long range. We have been to Bermuda four times and have had warm, sunny weather twice. On the other two occasions, both in the month of October, we encountered a stalled front which brought us more rain than sunshine - although we had some of both, and the fringe effects of hurricane Wilma which gave us a day of rain and wind, closed the harbor and kept us in port an extra eight or nine hours. That said, we have thoroughly enjoyed each of our visits to the island and look forward to returning later this year.

Don't let the weather stop you know matter what. Out of our 5 cruises to Bermuda only 1 trip had rain, this past May. The whole time we were there it rained but it didn't stop us from having a good time. We still went snorkeling with Restless Native, went to Horseshoe Bay and sat in the sprinkles before it downpoured and hit many shops, bars and clubs. :D

Whatever the weather you have no control just have fun, most likely you'll have beautiful weather.
