Too far north to be considered part of the Caribbean, Bermuda consists of more than 150 small islands and islets in the Atlantic. The ten largest ones are linked by causeways and bridges to create a mainland area of about 21 square miles.

Beach season is May through October, with daytime temperatures in the mid-80s and evening temperatures in the 70s . November through March, the temperature is mostly 60s and 70s. Too cool for the beach but great for tennis, golf, and put-putting around.

In fact, Bermuda boasts more golf courses per square mile than anywhere else in the world. If tennis is your game, you'll also find ample opportunities to play. And since it is an island nation, just about everything you'd want to do in, on, and underneath water, you can do here.

To protect the environment, car rentals are forbidden -- so mopeds are the preferred form of transportation and most visitors use them or taxis to navigate the pretty, narrow lanes.

Just about everyone does sightseeing in Hamilton, the capital, where Bermuda-shorts-clad officers direct traffic and cruise ships dock. You'll find evidence of Bermuda's British roots all around. Front Street's shops purvey china, porcelain, crystal, perfume, leather goods, watches, jewelry and more at duty-free prices. Specialty shops overflow with English and Scottish cashmeres and woolens. And if you've ever wanted a floor-length kilt -- or matching his and hers...  this is the place to find them.

Where should you stay? Choose from large or small hotels , cottages, or apartments. Many hotels offer a special coupon; check to see if there are extra goodies awaiting you. The Harmony Club is Bermuda's only all-inclusive resort. Since I like big, well-established places with lots of amenities, I'm a fan of Fairmont Hotels' Hamilton and Southampton Princess resorts, which have catered to honeymooners for years.

Bermuda a quiet, conservative and peaceful island.  There are no casinos and there's little nightlife to speak of. Consequently, that makes dining out the focal point of an evening. Fodor's lists and reviews a number of local restaurants; if you're visiting at a peak period, make reservations before you leave home. While there are some bars and clubs scattered around the parishes, more of the "action" takes place in hotel lounges, which IMHO can be dreary places with lousy music. Better to get into bed early and make your own fun.

If you're considering a Bermuda wedding and honeymoon, you'll want to know all the details before you arrive...  including the fact that your marriage announcement must be published in two local newspapers before the wedding takes place.
