When to go to Bermuda

In Bermuda, there are seemingly only two seasons: Spring and Summer. Spring runs from December to March, while summer is from April to November. This means there are no autumn showers or cold, grey winters. Temperatures in spring can reach 20°C and in the summer, they can easily reach 30°C.

Peak season is May through to October, reaching its peak in July and August when prices will be highest. June, July, and August are the hottest and most humid months and see an increase in rainfall. While September and October are often favoured as the least humid months. Average Sea temperatures throughout the year are around 23°C. Generally, November through to March offers great deals on hotels and airfare as this is considered off-peak, or slow season and sees fewer tourists and visitors than peak season.

Bermuda culture & holiday FAQ

Bermuda Carnival, formerly known as ‘Bermuda Heroes Weekend’, is an annual event held on the third weekend in June in Bermuda and it is one of the newest, but fastest growing carnivals around the world. There is a series of musical events in Hamilton area across the weekend that pulls in crowds for all over the island.

Throughout the year, and especially on Boxing Day, you will see Bermuda’s iconic ‘Gombey’ troupes parading and dancing down the streets. This tradition dates to at least the early 1800s and is a dazzling blend of African, Native American, Caribbean, and British cultures. This tradition features bright costumes and intriguing masks on both the dancers and the drummers. Steelpan, Bagpipe and Calypso music are also played, and this occurs during the summer nights mainly in Hamilton’s Harbour, as well as on Boxing Day, New Year’s Day, and Bermuda Day, in May.

In Bermuda, there is a mix of British, American, African, Portuguese, and West Indian influences on cuisine. Overall, it is a very healthy island diet – and fast food is barely yet to touch the shores of Bermuda, aside from a KFC. But, with delicious delicacies, mouth-watering seafood, and tasty drink, you wouldn’t want any fast food anyway. From snowballs which are crushed ice and syrup with fruit flavours, to keep you cool in the hot temperatures, to Bermuda’s own spin on fish chowder with sherry peppers and a dash of black seal rum, there will be something that not only surprises you but dances on your tastebuds! There are some traditional Bermudian meals on the menu too, including a common breakfast of codfish and potatoes with either hard-boiled eggs or in tomato sauce (Portuguese way), and Pawpaw casserole and for pudding, a common dessert is Horton’s rum cake.

There is also British pub food, at places such as the Frog & Onion Pub in the Dockyard, and the Hog Penny pub on Front Street in Hamilton – both feature the popular ‘bangers and mash’, and Sunday roasts. While New York super chef Marcus Samuelsson has opened a restaurant in the former ballroom of the Hamilton Princess & Beach Club on Hamilton Harbour, which features original art pieces by Andy Warhol and Nelson Mandela, and serves classic American favourites including buttermilk fried chicken, steaks, and burgers.

For the history buffs, in Southampton, the Waterlot Inn is a slice of history that dates back to the early 20th Century and has seen notable guests including Eleanor Roosevelt, Mark Twain and others. It’s by the dock in Jew’s Bay and serves steak and wine among other things.

For other cuisine, such as Italian, head to Little Venice in Hamilton, which was Bermuda’s first Italian restaurant and does fine dining Italian style. Ee highly recommend the filled pasta!

Fancy a mouth-watering drink, look no further than Bermuda’s very own signature drink known as the Rum swizzle, found mainly in the Swizzle Inn. This delicious drink includes coconut rum, pineapple juice and orange juice and is stirred with a swizzle stick. Other popular drinks include the ‘Dark ‘n’ Stormy, Devils Isle Coffee and common juices. The English style pubs offer beer too, and the Dockyard Brewing Co. in the Frog & Onion pub is the island's only microbrewery, so definitely check it out if you have the chance!

Baritt’s Bermuda Stone Ginger Beer has been the island’s favourite soft drink since 1874! Enjoy it on its own, or mix it with your choice of rum, beer, or other spirits.

Of course, Bermuda wouldn’t be without its rum, including Gold and Black rum!

There are several rugby clubs on the island, as well as a national cricket team. There are match days during the summer with an atmosphere like bank holiday weekends. Somerset team on the west of Bermuda and St George’s from the east have been rivals since 1902 and always makes for a good game! Celebrations usually include festivals and parties afterward!
