Bermuda

Bermuda rests 650 miles / 1046 kilometers east of North Carolina. A beautiful stretch of the Atlantic dazzles its 75 miles / 120 kilometers of dramatic coastline with sparkling turquoise waves. Approximately 180 islands, linked by bridges and divided into nine picturesque parishes make up Bermuda. All of the islands offer lush vegetation, unique wildlife and beautiful beaches . . . some of which boast pink sand, a feature found in only a few places worldwide. This tiny overseas territory of the UK offers visitors extraordinary weather, amazing scenery and plenty to do. Grace Bermuda with your presence on your honeymoon and you’ll know why they say Bermuda is an island paradise made for two.
