Bermuda - Touring the Other Parishes

The remaining six parishes on Bermuda form a chain that runs east to west. To tour them you will need to rent a moped or a bicycle, or take advantage of the bus and ferry system. Following is a round-up, parish-by-parish, of the most interesting attractions. Be prepared to exercise a little flexibility during your tour. Who knows what you’ll find around the next bend or down that tiny side road? The island is not a big one, and there’s plenty of time for side trips.

It’s not feasible to tour all six parishes in a single day. So I’ve divided
the tour into three sections, each planned for a day of exploring. If you decide to use public transport, be prepared to do a little walking. There’s nothing too far off the beaten path and most of the tour stops are just a pleasant stroll away from the bus routes. As you’ll be making frequent stops, it is highly recommended that you buy one of the three- or seven day passes. A pass is convenient and will save you a great deal of money. Don’t worry too much about schedules.

The beauties of the Bermudian Public Transport System are its convenience, frequency and the short distances between stops. You can jump off the bus just about anywhere, secure in the knowledge that there will be another bus along in 30 minutes or less. If you decide you’d like to do the tour by moped or bicycle, the following directions will work just as well for you.
