If you want to go on a couple’s trip to Bermuda, you should plan ahead. Specifically, you should know some unique things to see and do while you are there. Here are some of the highlights.
1. The Railway Trail
The Bermuda Railway Trail is an abandoned railway trail that spreads throughout most of the island. The trail follows the original route of the Bermuda Railway that began operating in the early 1930s. Though this railway is now defunct, the trail still shows off the island’s stunning landscape.
Biking, hiking, or even walking along the trail is one of the most fun things to do in Bermuda. You will also see Bermuda’s colorful flowers, lush plants, and fragrant trees along the way. Following the trail is a powerful aesthetic experience.
2. Show Off Your Artistic Side
You should try new things when on vacation. Bermuda’s Studio 8 offers jewelry-making and glass-blowing classes. If you are more of a viewer than a doer, you can watch local glass artisans at work at Dockyard Glassworks. Here you can find glass-based jewelry pieces and speak with the artists who created them.
3. To the Lighthouse

On especially hot days, you can cool down with a guided tour of the Crystal Cave. Located 120 feet below ground, this subterranean cave is at least one million years old. The cave contains unique geological structures formed during the last Ice Age.
