Does anyone have any updates on visiting Bermuda? I understand that they only allow yachts in cases of emergency, but now I am reading that the EU is fast tracking its re-opening in hopes of saving the summer tourist season. I am wondering if Bermuda is doing the same. Thanks, Kevin Boothby

St George
May/June 2018
Called Bermuda radio when we were 60 miles out and they asked lots of questions to confirm they had the right boat. We had completed the pre-arrival form online and this made it much easier. The Bermuda Radio operators are excellent and you can tell they have been trained properly on the radio, their professionalism was even more noticeable after we arrived in the USA. When we arrived at St. George’s harbour, before we went through “The Cut” we radioed again and they gave permission for us to continue in and go to the customs dock.
They do not like you to anchor but to take your boat directly to customs. If you don’t radio in they will still pick you up if you have AIS and call you to assertion your intentions. They were very clear with all their instructions. The cost was $70 dollars at check-in. You can pay by credit card ( 2 persons 42ft boat) No charge to clear out and if there are no crew changes then you can dinghy over to clear out. NB After clearing out you only have 59 minutes to leave!
No recycling for cruisers but bins on the side of the quay are available. They recycle at home but only a small amount and it is sent to the USA for processing.
You can only get duty free fuel if you are buying 900+ litres! So it can be expensive. Other yachts were sailing around to Dockyard to refuel because it was cheaper.
Supermarket, bank etc all within walking distance. We did lock our dinghy when it was on the pontoon but many people didn’t.
There are lots of locals that hang around the quayside. We didn’t have any trouble with them. We came over to the quay for a few nights, ask and pay in the flash marina office next to the customs office. It cost $1 per ft, per night against the wall, no water or electricity, no showers but nice clean toilets open during the day only. There was a local man called Weldon who helped us tie upside too.
Buses are inexpensive and there is a very good Tourist information centre in St George’s.
We spent nearly 3 weeks here.
We used Ocean Sails in St. Georges for a mainsail repair in May 2016. Despite a lot to do with the ARC regatta, they were effective and forthcoming. The sail was repaired in two days.
Some information on St. George’ s Dinghy & Sports Club as of May 2014:
Laundry is $4/wash and $4/dry. The machines only take Bermuda dollar coins.
Showers are by token, which can be purchased at the bar on the upper level for $3. They last 5 minutes. Good water pressure with hot water.
Wifi is available, the range is fairly limited.
