Crime levels in Bermuda are low, as compared to those in the United Kingdom. To remain safe, travel only in well-lit areas and avoid travelling alone if possible. Do not leave valuable items unattended in public areas.

Petty crime, such as pick-pocketing or bag-snatching, can also occur. Travellers should avoid carrying unnecessary valuables with them. Avoid demonstrations or large gatherings, as they are good opportunities for pick-pocketing.

Underground in Hamilton Parish, near the Castle Harbour, is what is known as Crystal Cave. 500 meters long and 62 meters deep, the cave was formed at a time when sea level was much lower. As sea levels rose several of the cave formations were submerged under water. The caves were discovered in 1905 when two 12-year-old-boys were searching for a lost cricket ball.

As you approach the area you’ll be surrounded by the tall palm trees and greenery. Once you enter the cave, you’ll see clear pools of water of every shape and size. In fact, the water is so clear that you can see crystal constructions 15 meters underwater.

It’s important to ensure you bring everything you may need for your trip. Be sure to include these key items:

• Light Clothing – It can be very hot and humid in Bermuda. You will be most comfortable in light, flowy clothing.
• Sun Cream – Lounging on the seaside or exploring the outdoors is a must in Bermuda. Ensure to lather up in sun cream first to preventing burning.
• Swimsuit – Bermuda has plenty of seasides and pools so bring a swimsuit to enjoy the water.
• Formal Attire – There are many restaurants that require nice clothes. Bring a nice kit, not just your swimsuit!
