Hurricane Humberto is expected to produce dangerous surf for Bermuda and the U.S. East Coast this week while Tropical Storm Imelda is strengthening near the Bahamas, forecasters said.

Humberto remained a powerful Category 4 storm in the Atlantic early on Monday and a Tropical Storm Watch was in effect for Bermuda, the National Hurricane Center in Miami said.

At 2 a.m. EDT, Humberto was located about 400 miles (645 kilometers) south-southwest of Bermuda moving northwest at 14 mph (22 kph) with maximum sustained winds of 140 mph (220 kph), the center reported.

The Ministry of Tourism & Transport, Culture & Sport marked World Tourism Day by highlighting recent achievements in strengthening Bermuda’s tourism industry and reaffirming its commitment to sustainable growth and opportunity for Bermudians.

A Government spokesperson said, “The Ministry of Tourism & Transport, Culture & Sport joins the global community in celebrating World Tourism Day on Saturday, September 27, a moment to reflect on the progress made in Bermuda’s tourism sector and to reaffirm the Government’s commitment to its continued growth and sustainability.

“Over the past year, the Ministry has achieved significant milestones in strengthening Bermuda’s position as a premier destination. The Government has advanced a series of initiatives to modernise legislation, support local entrepreneurs, attract new investment and create opportunities for Bermudians in this vital sector of the economy.”

Minister of Tourism & Transport, Culture & Sport Owen Darrell shared, “Tourism is not only a pillar of Bermuda’s economy but also a reflection of the island’s culture, heritage and unique beauty. Over the past year, the Government has deliberately promoted investment incentives across attractions, restaurants and local operators, ensuring that benefits are accessible not only to large-scale developers but also to home-grown entrepreneurs. This balanced approach is strengthening the foundation of Bermuda’s tourism industry, expanding its offerings and creating meaningful opportunities for Bermudians.

“Among the most significant achievements has been the modernisation of the Tourism Investment Act, which now provides greater flexibility in responding to real-time conditions affecting tourism businesses. Two new Tourism Investment Orders have also been advanced, granting relief to a commercial charter yacht and a new local attraction, highlighting the Government’s commitment to empowering Bermudian entrepreneurs. At the same time, the development of The Loren has set in motion the revitalisation of the long-vacant Elbow Beach site, expanding hotel capacity and creating jobs across demolition, construction and operations. Together, these measures have sustained investor confidence and ensured that Bermuda remains a destination of choice, with projects that enhance visitor experiences while strengthening the local economy.”

“World Tourism Day serves as a reminder that tourism is ultimately about people,” Minister Darrell emphasised. “ It’s about workers, entrepreneurs, communities and the experiences shared with visitors from around the world. A new chapter in Bermuda’s tourism story is being written, one rooted in opportunity, sustainability and pride in the island’s identity.

United Kingdom couple Caroline and Joe Hart are enjoying a Bermuda vacation that was made possible through the Bermuda Golf Links Society’s initiative “to build on interpersonal relationships in our key target markets around the world.”

A spokesperson said, “UK Couple Caroline and Joe Hart are enjoying Bermuda thanks to their generous bidding in response to kind charitable donations led by Ms Laura Purroy of the St George’s Club Hotel, Bermuda and joined by several golf courses and restaurants on island.

“The initiative was spearheaded by Kim Swan under the Bermuda Golf Links Society platform designed to build on interpersonal relationships in our key target markets around the world.

“The event grew from our March 2024 Bermuda UK Golf Fam Trip which featured twenty four golf influencers from PGA organizations and Golf Clubs in England.”

Mr. Swan said, “Thankfully, St. George’s Club Hotel led the way and supported our initiative to promote Bermuda by supporting local events overseas in the United Kingdom. The 2024 Wollaton Park Golf Clubs Captains Charity was an easy choice because it was being organized by a dear friend of Bermuda frequent visitor Rosemary Lockwood who calls our beloved Bermuda her second home by even volunteering each year at the PGA Tour Butterfield Bermuda Championship.

“It was great being partially involved in the months of preparation for the Marie Currie charity golf tournament in 2024, organized by Rosemary Lockwood, the immediate past Lady Captain of Wollaton Park Golf Club in England, which attracted 120 golfers, featured a spectacular Bermuda themed silent auction prize in aid of cancer, and a Dark N’ Stormy putting competition.”

Bermudian cuisine is a fusion of British, Portuguese, Caribbean, and West African traditions, with a strong focus on local seafood. Signature dishes are often seasoned with Gosling's Black Seal Rum and Outerbridge's Sherry Peppers Sauce, adding a distinct island kick.

Bermuda fish chowder: The national dish is a rich, spicy, and dark-broth soup made from fish stock, vegetables, and bacon fat. It is traditionally finished with a splash of Gosling's Black Seal Rum and Outerbridge's Sherry Peppers Sauce.
Codfish and potatoes: A classic Sunday breakfast, this hearty dish consists of steamed salt cod served with boiled potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, and onions. Many locals add a Portuguese-influenced tomato-onion sauce and sometimes avocado or banana.
Fish sandwich: A staple of Bermudian cuisine, this sandwich features a fried fillet of local fish (often wahoo or rockfish) on toasted raisin bread with tartar sauce, lettuce, and coleslaw. The sweet and savory combination is a local favorite.
Cassava pie: A traditional Christmas dish, this savory-sweet pie is made with a grated cassava crust and filled with chicken.
Mussel pie: A unique and flavorful pie featuring local mussels.
Spiny lobster: A seasonal delicacy available from September to March. Unlike Maine lobsters, spiny lobsters have most of their meat in their tail and are often served thermidor-style, broiled, or stuffed.
Shark hash: A flavorful dish made from minced shark meat.
Fish cakes: These are similar to codfish and potato fish cakes found in other places, but with a unique Bermudian spin.

Beverages and desserts
Rum Swizzle: Often referred to as Bermuda's national cocktail, this drink is a mixture of rum, fruit juices, and liqueurs. It is famously served at the Swizzle Inn, one of Bermuda's oldest pubs.
Dark 'n' Stormy: The island's signature drink, made with Gosling's Black Seal Rum and ginger beer.
Rum cake: A rich, buttery cake drenched in local rum.

There are many a Jim Henson-related exhibition around the country, and odds are, they have some little bit of Michael Frith in them, from his sketches to puppets he designed. But now, he’s going to get an exhibition all his own. You just have to be in Bermuda to see it!

The Art of Michael K Frith: From Pencil to Puppet is an upcoming exhibition of Frith’s work that will be coming to the Bermuda National Gallery on October 17, and will be on display through April 2026. The gallery will feature art from his entire career, particularly during his time working for Jim Henson and Dr. Seuss. There will also be some actual puppets of characters he’s designed, on loan from the Center for Puppetry Arts.

In addition to the gallery, Frith will participate in a special event with Henson archivist Karen Falk on October 18. So, if you happen to be island-hopping in the Atlantic Ocean, be sure to drop by!

When you hear the word Bermuda, the first thing that usually springs to mind is the infamous triangle myth rather than the island itself. However I wanted to find out what this legendary isle is all about, like why do so many celebrities vacation there? And are the beaches really pink?

Sounds intriguing, tell me more...
The Bermuda Triangle's a section of the North Atlantic Ocean where ships and planes have mysteriously vanished without a trace over the years. The Bermuda Tourism Authority has cleverly played on the mystery and last year launched a ‘lost yet found’ campaign, inviting tourists to 'lose themselves in the local culture' and experience what the island has to offer. While planes getting lost in the triangle are still unsolved, Bermuda has a pretty good explanation for ships lost on its borders, and it’s all because of its coral reef. In the 1600's, government-sanctioned local privateers would trick ships into sailing straight into the reef and steal their loot as they sank.

Now the reef and shipwrecks are definitely among the island's highlights. You can even take an underwater tour of them with Island Tour Center ($95pp), including snorkelling above Montana and Constellation, two ships right next to each other with cement bags and Paddlewheels all available on show, plus there’s also the HMS Vixen whose bow is sticking out above the water!

The nostalgic charm of Bermuda
The tiny British Overseas Territory has many charming features

I had been working on charter yachts in the Caribbean and was soon to return to the UK when I first visited Bermuda in 1975, said Fiona Duncan in The Telegraph.

I found the tiny mid-Atlantic archipelago enchanting, with its "lush" lanes, pastel houses, old forts and exquisite pink-sand beaches. But it wasn't just the beauty of the place that made an impression on me; I also found the locals wonderfully friendly, and felt in some ways as if I were "coming home". Bermuda is a British Overseas Territory, and I was charmed by its Royal Mail letterboxes and red telephone kiosks, the familiar helmets worn by its policemen (albeit paired with Bermuda shorts) and its "gentle, suburban" air. And so it was with some trepidation that I returned for the first time this year, hoping to find the magic undimmed.

I needn't have worried. Bermuda may be better known nowadays as a centre for the reinsurance business than as a tourist destination, but it is still a "glorious" and "characterful" place. My tour this time began in the town of St George's, a Unesco World Heritage Site full of historic houses, with a beautiful church, St Peter's. I sampled lovely perfumes made on site at the Lili Bermuda perfumery in 18th-century Stewart Hall, and ate Bermuda fish chowder for lunch at the long-established Wahoo's Bistro. Next, I drove out to Smith's Parish to visit Verdmont, an elegantly furnished 18th-century house owned by the Bermuda National Trust.

Bermuda is a popular destination in the North Atlantic, known for its pink sand beaches, historical sites, and a blend of British and American culture.
Here are some reasons to visit Bermuda:
Pink Sand Beaches Bermuda is known for its distinctive pink sand beaches, such as Horseshoe Bay Beach, which get their color from a mix of crushed coral and shells. Other popular pink sand beaches include Warwick Long Bay and Jobson's Cove. These beaches offer opportunities for swimming, sunbathing, and exploring.
Diving and Snorkeling The island's crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs, along with numerous shipwrecks, make it a top destination for diving and snorkeling. Popular sites include Church Bay, To***co Bay, and the shipwrecks of the Constellation and Montana. Diving is best enjoyed between May and October when the sea is calm and water temperatures are moderate.
History and Culture Bermuda boasts a rich history and culture, showcased in locations like Historic St. George's, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the oldest continuously inhabited English town in the New World. Other highlights include the Royal Naval Dockyard, the National Museum of Bermuda, and the African Diaspora Heritage Trail, which explores the legacy of enslaved peoples. The island's cultural heritage is also celebrated through events and traditions like the Gombey dances, which feature vibrant costumes and rhythmic drumming.
Natural Wonders Bermuda features impressive natural attractions like the Crystal and Fantasy Caves, offering glimpses into clear, underground pools and intricate formations. You can also explore the Bermuda Railway Trail and Gibb's Hill Lighthouse, one of the oldest cast iron lighthouses in the world, providing panoramic views.
Outdoor Activities Beyond swimming and snorkeling, visitors can engage in activities such as golf on world-class courses, cliff jumping, jet skiing, paddleboarding, parasailing, and exploring the island by renting Twizy electric vehicles. Hiking and cycling are also popular, especially along the Bermuda Railway Trail.
Cuisine Bermudian cuisine is a blend of British, African, Caribbean, and Portuguese influences. Popular dishes include seafood chowder, fried fish sandwiches, and grilled spiny lobster. Be sure to try the national drink, the rum swizzle, at the Swizzle Inn, or a fish sandwich at Art Mel's Spicy Dicy.
