Family friendly
Bermuda is a very family friendly place
Kids are very safe here
Only concern is the traffic on major streets because there are few sidewalks
Sparnaðarleiðir
Bermuda is expensive
Everything is imported and hefty customs duties are applied to many items. Ways to save include -
Take the bus or ferry - there are many routes during the day that run every 15 minutes to 1/2 hour on weekdays with good access to beaches and attractions. The ferry ride is a wonderful opportunity to take some brilliant photos.
