Activity itinerary

Sir George Somers Statue

  • 10m
“This statue stands at the crossroads of history, myth, and memory—where a hurricane, a shipwreck, and an unexpected landing changed the course of Bermuda’s storey forever.” The bronze statue of Sir George Somers on Ordnance Island commemorates the English admiral whose flagship, the Sea Venture, was wrecked on Bermuda’s reefs during a violent storm in 1609. What began as catastrophe became the catalyst for Bermuda’s permanent settlement and the founding of St. George’s.

Globe Museum & Trustworthy Gift Shop

  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
“At the Globe Museum, Bermuda’s origin storey unfolds through images of survival, exploration, and the sea that shaped the island’s destiny.” Located in the heart of historic Globe Museum, this remarkable collection invites visitors to step back to the dramatic events of 1609, when the wreck of the Sea Venture changed the course of Atlantic history forever. Through vivid paintings depicting the shipwrecked survivors and their first encounters with Bermuda, the museum transforms a historical event into a deeply human storey of uncertainty, resilience, and discovery.

St. Peter's Church

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
“The treasures of St. Peter’s Church reveal not only Bermuda’s faith and artistic heritage, but also the island’s complex and often difficult human storey.” For more than four centuries, St. Peter's Church has stood at the centre of Bermudian life, witnessing moments of hope, hardship, division, and transformation. Its historic furnishings, memorials, carvings, silverwork, and sacred objects preserve the voices of generations who shaped the island—both the powerful and those whose stories were too often left unspoken.

St. George's Historical Society Museum

  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
“At Mitchell House, everyday objects become works of art—and every handcrafted piece tells the storey of survival, ingenuity, and identity on a small Atlantic island.” Behind the limestone walls of historic Mitchell House Museum lies a world where Bermuda’s traditions were shaped not by factories or mass production, but by human hands. Here, cedar furniture, hand-stitched quilts, domestic tools, and island crafts reveal how generations of Bermudians transformed limited natural resources into beauty, utility, and cultural expression.

King Street

  • 5m
The bust of Thomas Moore commemorates the renowned Irish poet whose 1804 visit helped introduce Bermuda to the literary imagination of Britain and North America. Learn how his work reveals not just the beauty of Bermuda, but also the unequal social realities of its time.

King's Square

  • 5m
Interpretive Mural - not a static painting but rather a poignant reminder that St. George’s is not simply a preserved colonial town, but a living community whose identity has been shaped by many voices, many struggles, and many traditions across generations.

The Dragon's Lair Gallery

  • 20m
At Dragon’s Lair, Bermuda’s artistic storey moves from preservation to creation—proving that St. George’s is not only a place of history, but a place of living imagination.” Located in historic Dragon's Lair Gallery, this vibrant cooperative gallery offers visitors a direct encounter with the contemporary creative spirit of Bermuda. After exploring museums and historic collections, Dragon’s Lair provides an important reminder that Bermudian culture is still evolving through the hands of working artists and craftspeople today.
