Rain days are the days with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts them.
Weather read at Hamilton, 12 km from the airport (BDA): ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.
A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. It is flagged rather than scored down, and crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.
How busy it gets
Then and now
Bermuda's August days now average 28.2°C, 1.6°C warmer than in 1981–1990. 12 of 12 months are clearly warmer.

Being there
On arrival
- Paying — Visa, Mastercard and American Express are accepted almost everywhere, and US dollars are taken at par alongside Bermuda dollars. Most ATMs give only Bermuda dollars; carry cash for taxis, as many drivers prefer it or take nothing else.
- UPI, for visitors from India — Not accepted for paying here; bring a card that works abroad.
Getting around Bermuda
On buses, pay the exact fare in coins (no notes; drivers give no change): $3.50 for up to 3 zones, $5 for longer trips. Tokens and 1- to 7-day passes ($19 for one day) work on buses and ferries: buy them at the Hamilton bus or ferry terminal, the Dockyard and St. George's visitor centres or your hotel, or in the Shorelink app, and show the activated fare as you board.
- Apps — Rides: HITCH, Journi, Ride.bm. Maps: Google Maps, Apple Maps. There is no Uber; HITCH, Journi and Ride.bm book licensed taxis and, since June 2026, can pass a request no taxi takes to a licensed ride-share car (RS plates) at taxi rates, paid by card in the app.
The islands benefit from a bus service which connects all parts of the islands to Hamilton. The bus is the cheapest way to get around, and it can be a good idea to use it, but it has some negative sides. More on Wikivoyage

What Bermuda is like
Bermuda is a self-governing British overseas territory in the Atlantic Ocean north of the Caribbean, off the coast of North America. It is one of the last remnants of the British colonial empire in North America. More on Wikivoyage
- Worth seeing
- There is a surprisingly large number of excellent sightseeing places in this 21-square mile tiny island. More on Wikivoyage
- Worth doing
- Bermuda has many golf courses and driving ranges spread out along its length. More on Wikivoyage
- Getting in
- Visitors are granted entry for not more than 180 days and usually for only 21 days, provided you have a return or onward ticket out of Bermuda. Extensions of stay are possible from the Bermuda Department of Immigration. More on Wikivoyage
- Staying safe
- Violent crime is becoming increasingly problematic in Bermuda but is still very rare compared to other destinations in the Caribbean. Most crime is petty like robbery. More on Wikivoyage
- Staying healthy
- Bermuda can get very hot during the day, so a bottle of water is very handy for those venturing more than a short distance from their hotels. More on Wikivoyage
