Houses are painted sherbert yellow, green and blue and the pinkish sand
on every beach is as soft as flour. If youre planning a winter getaway,
consider Bermuda, where the sweet floral scents and sounds of the sea
will whisk you a million miles away.
stay
With three restaurants, pools, tennis courts and spacious rooms all
steps away from one of the islands best beaches, Elbow
Beach is the place to stay. Order a Dark and Stormy and bask on the
beach to a soundtrack of crashing waves. Sushi fans will love the
fresh-from-the-ocean wahoo rolls at Seabreez. www.mandarinoriental.com/bermuda
do
Rent a moped and cruise the island at 25 miles-per-hour. Visit the
flamingos at the local
aquarium, stop and smell the hibiscus at the Botanical Gardens and
leap off the cliffs into crystal waters at Horseshoe
Bay. If youre as nosy as we are, youll want to ride over to Tuckers
Town where Ross Perot, Michael Bloomberg and Silvio Berlusconi have
holiday homes.
eat
The Lobster Pot
in town is a Bermudian institution where bibs are a must. Dont miss out
on the Guinea Chicks (Sept-March) and if youve never tried Wahoo, this
is the place to do it. www.lobsterpot.bm
drink
Chat up some locals (Bermudians are famously friendly) over a few Rum
Swizzles (made with Bermuda rum) at the local mainstay Rum Swizzle
Inn. www.swizzleinn.com
