The 10 Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Hamilton, Pembroke Parish

June 18, 2021 Agatha Simes

Bermuda’s capital hosts hordes of cruise visitors in its harbor area, where two-story pastel buildings line the seafront. On certain summer nights, waterfront streets are closed to traffic and vendors and entertainers take their place for boisterous Harbour Nights parties. Stock up on Bacardi at the rum giant’s HQ or explore the mysteries of the sea at Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute. Hamilton presents some excellent golfing and shopping opportunities and is easy to explore on foot.

Stopped by to see the Shepard Fairey exhibit [on through April] and enjoyed the balance of the galleries immensely. There was an exhibit of women artists from the island which was refreshing, as well as an interestingly organized assemblage of works by island artists as well as others in an unusual juxtaposition of periods and medium. Make it a point to spend a leisurely hour at the galleries.

While a bit small, there is still quote a lot to see at this place. The variety of fish species and view of Bermuda's underwater life is amazing. You can also learn a lot about Bermuda's history, both past and present. A good place to walk around leisurely and be entertained. If you are lucky you can catch the sea lions feeding and swimming, which is always fun.

Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute

Experience the wonders of the ocean without getting wet! Interactive exhibits for both young and old including The America's Cup exhibit, our new simulated dive into the Bermuda Triangle, our 'Living with the Ocean' exhibit which examines the human impact on the marine environment, one of the largest private shell collections in the world, the famous Teddy Tucker Shipwreck Gallery and so much more!

Reviewed By msjhaffey - Hook, United Kingdom

This gets a rare 5 stars because, quite simply, it is so fascinating. My wife and I expected an hour would be plenty, but it seized our attention and wouldn't let go. From the cedar root that was more than 7,000 years old through the excellent virtual reality session (at the America's Cup), the explanation of theories about the "Bermuda Triangle" and the treasure room, to name just a few. Information was presented in an interesting fashion and there were plenty of interactive exhibits. One of only two niggles is that s few of the interactive exhibits were not working. In general things were designed to appeal to a wide range of ages and did so very successfully. My second niggle is the prominence on the outside of the building given to bizarre explanations for the "Bermuda Triangle". The exhibit itself was far more down to earth. A huge amount of thought and planning must have gone into this exhibition. It has thoroughly succeeded. Well done! Top tip: I found the virtual reality exhibit breathtaking. I suspect there may be queues for it in the tourist season, so arrive early.

My wife and I have been to Bermuda many, many times Docksiders is the best neighborhood type sports bar in Bermuda hands down. Good food, great atmosphere and friendly bartenders. Kudos to Rory, Vashti, Tom and Ryan. They are all 5 stars in my book.
