Bermuda

Day 3
A free day today.  The group could take a walking tour through the streets of Hamilton - one of the smallest but busiest port cities in the world. Take in many historic points of interest, including the Bermuda Cathedral, a weighty neo-Gothic building that is one of the city's dominant landmarks.  The Bermuda Historical Society Museum, which contains models of the ill-fated Sea Venture; and the Bermuda National Gallery, containing works by Thomas Gainsborough, Joshua Reynolds and Winslow Homer.

The team will play its first series of volleyball games today against a local team.

Day 4
Perhaps visit Fort Hamilton today. A substantial hilltop fort with a bird's-eye view of Hamilton Harbour. It is one of a series of fortifications erected in the mid-19th century during a period of rising tensions between Britain and the USA. The ramparts are mounted with 10-inch rifled muzzleloader guns capable of firing 400-pound cannonballs through iron-hulled vessels. These devastating weapons were fortunately, never required.

There will be a complimentary cruise today from 12:00pm to 3:00pm.
Lunch is provided and there will be entertainment on board.

Day 5
Perhaps visit the South Shore Park. This one and a half mile long coastal reserve protects some of Bermuda's finest beaches. A coastal trail runs through the park, linking a series of coves and bays divided by outcrops of craggy rocks. There are 12 beaches in total, ranging from medium-sized half-moon bays like Horseshoe Bay to postage stamp sized inlets like Peel Rock Cove.

The team will play its second series of volleyball games today.

Day 6
A free day today. Perhaps visit the town of St. George, Bermuda's first capital and still one of the most fascinating sightseeing areas. Wednesday is a good day to visit St. George because the Old State House and the Old Rectory are open to the public and the Bermuda Biological Station gives guided tours of its facilities. While in St. George why not visit St. Peter's Church, this thatch and wood structure was one of the oldest Anglican churches in the Western Hemisphere. The present structure dating from the early 1700's is a fine building with open timber beams, marble memorials honouring early governors and a mahogany altar that's the oldest piece of Bermudian furniture on the Island.

Day 7
Today might be a good day to visit the Royal Naval Dockyard. The fort is built of limestone blocks in the Georgian style, and was first used by the British navy as a base to launch their raid on Washington DC in 1814. It later served as a North Atlantic base during both World Wars but was abandoned as a costly outpost in 1951. The dockyard has now been renovated and includes the Bermuda Maritime Museum, located in the forts former keep, a movie theatre, a craft market and the Bermuda Snorkel Park.
