There are ample delights up the sleeve of Bermuda that leave tourists short of breath. Read on for a brief look into the top three spots to explore on a trip to Bermuda.

Explore the capital of this territory-Hamilton.

Catch up the harbor that is rated as one of the finest in the Western world. The top places to visit in the capital city are the Bermuda Anglican Cathedral that has an impressive history and architecture, the Fort Hamilton, the Bermuda National Gallery and the serene Barrs Park. If you are lucky enough you might come across the Harbor Nights party during the summer months, every Wednesday as well.

St. George island is a must see in Bermuda. This is one spot that is permanently crowded with tourists of diverse backgrounds and of all ages or interests. Catch up with the World Heritage center at the island. Here you come across video tours of the island's history as well as a guided tour into the political and social development of the island.
