Do they give free drinks in the stores like other islands? We went shopping on ST Marteen on cruise and I had drank about 8 free beers before lunch time, I was feeling pretty good. :otter:

Thanks for the tips, sounds like we are going to have a good time there. :buddies:
The only times I've gotten free drinks in the Caribbean was in St Croix (at the airport) and Cozumel. In Cozumel I tried some pomegranate tequila that was delicious. I ended up buying a small sampler package of it.

So we decided to try Norwegian Cruise Line for the first time. We are going out this fall on the brand new Breakaway ship. It sails out of New York and we are spending 3 days at Bermuda and 4 sea days.

Any recomendations of things to do in Bermuda? This will be out first time there and with 3 days we have a lot of time to experence different stuff on the island.

What to do in Bermuda:

1. Take LOTS of money, because no matter what you do, you will need it.
2. Take your golf clubs. Port Royal rocks, with ocean views unmatched.
3. Spend your money - Bermuda will thank you.
4. Horseshoe Bay Beach, Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, Sandy's Parrish
5. Worlds Smallest Drawbridge (the bridge is solid, but a 22" flap opens up to allow sailboats to transit)

Enjoy the 21 square miles of a really cool place, where my wife was born and raised, and where lots of her family still reside.

When we went shopping, every jewlery store we went into offered me free beer while the wife looked. St Thomas and St Marteen both did it.

No unfortunately there wont be any of that. You might get a glass of tea :lol:

Also it is unacceptable to be seen in a bathing suit other than when your at the beach. You will actually be denied boarding on the ferrys/busses if you arent covered up.

Etiquette -- Well-tailored Bermuda shorts are acceptable on almost any occasion, and many men wear them with jackets and ties. On formal occasions, they must be accompanied by navy blue or black knee socks. Aside from that, Bermudians are rather conservative in their attitude toward dress -- bikinis, for example, are banned more than 7.5m (25 ft.) from the water. Men are usually required to wear a jacket to dinner

I bet you will have fun just exploring the ship. I saw the Epic in Miami a few weeks ago before it sailed. It dwarfed all the other cruise ships in port, including a couple of Carnival boats.

I'm not sure bigger is better, especially since it will mean that many more people but you certainly won't be bored at all. I hope to get on either 1 of those in the near future for a week or so.
