By Delaina Dixon | January 6, 2025 | Travel
Listen up, DivaGals! Are you ready to ditch the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary? Well, dust off your designer shades and pack your most fabulous resort wear because Bermuda is the destination to be in 2025!
This isn’t just another island getaway; it’s a vibrant explosion of color, culture and pure, unadulterated glamour. Think pink sand beaches, turquoise waters that sparkle like diamonds, and a vibe that’s as chic as it is laid-back. From eco-adventures to culinary delights and historical happenings, Bermuda in 2025 is serving up a serious dose of fabulousness that you just can’t miss.
HOT TRAVEL TIP! The Bermuda Tourism Authority (BTA) is now offering its annual Pink Sale with savings of up to 40% and free-night stays at select properties. The sale is valid for bookings made by Jan. 31, 2025, and can be applied to any vacation planned in the new year!
Here are five more reasons to pack your bags and head to Bermuda in 2025!
1. Sun-Kissed, All Year Round!
Forget those winter blues, ladies! Bermuda’s weather is like a permanent vacation for your skin. Think sunshine and mild temps, perfect for showing off those killer outfits. Ditch the bulky coats and embrace light layers – ideal for power walking gorgeous trails, shopping the boutiques on Front Street, sipping cocktails (and mocktails!) by the beach or just escaping the snow for some quality time with your besties. It’s a sunshine haven 24/7, so take full advantage.
2. Hospitality with a Heart (and a Smile!)
Prepare to be treated like royalty, Divas! Bermuda’s hospitality is next level. From the gas station to the fanciest five-star hotel, like our fave, The Loren at Pink Beach (with a ocean view from your terrace!), you’ll feel like family. They’re all about warmth, charm, and celebrating their diverse culture. And every April, they throw a whole month-long party for Hospitality Month! This year’s theme, “Elevate Bermuda Together,” is all about bringing the community together to make your experience even more amazing—how fabulous is that?
3. The Fish Sandwich: A Bermuda Must-Have!
Okay, Divas, let’s talk food! Bermuda’s fish sandwich is legendary. Think crispy, golden-brown fish (snapper or grouper, if you’re luck y!) served on raisin bread (yes, raisin bread!) with all the fixings: hot sauce, tartar sauce, tomato, grilled onions and cheese. It’s a culinary adventure, and finding the best one is a delicious challenge. Hit up Mama Angie’s, Munchies by the Sea, The Swizzle Inn, and Woodys, which are local faves. Don’t forget a side of coleslaw and a refreshing ginger beer to complete the experience. Yum!
4. Eco-Chic Island Living!
Bermuda isn’t just beautiful; it’s smart too! Sustainability is their jam. We’re talking eco-friendly everything, from electric microcars (so cute!) to businesses about protecting our planet. Major props to the Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute (BUEI) and The Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) for their amazing work. And get this: most homes have their own rainwater collection systems – genius! Those iconic white roofs aren’t just for show; they filter the rain naturally. Talk about eco-fabulous!
5. History, Heritage & Style
For a truly unique experience, visit in late July/early August for Cup Match! It’s a two-day cricket match between rival teams to celebrate the island’s emancipation from enslavement, which happened on August 1. 1834. The entire island comes together for this amazing event. And if you’re feeling adventurous, join the Bacchanal Run, “The Non-Marathon,” a fun way to experience the community spirit and celebrate Bermuda’s rich history. While there, take the Long Story Short Walking Tour, led by Kristin White, who unveils the rich contributions of people of African descent to Bermuda’s history.
And check out Bermuda’s emerging fashion and luxury hub, blending local creativity with global influence. Known for its iconic Bermuda shorts and a unique blend of elegance and island style, the island is home to talented designers like Davidrose Studio, whose jewelry recently caught the eye of Beyoncé!
There you have it, Divas! Bermuda is calling. It’s time to pack your bags, grab your besties and prepare for a truly unforgettable getaway. You deserve it!
