Bermuda's impeccable location keeps our island warmed by the Gulf Stream and the sun's rays, but free of the tropics' relentless heat. Our opinion? It is absolutely perfect.

Our extraordinarily pleasant climate rarely sees extremes of either hot or cold. Not even the Queen could resist the temperate conditions warming us year round.

  • The hottest part of our year: May through mid-October, when temperatures hover between 75°F / 23°C and 85°F / 29°C
  • During the winter months, temperatures average a balmy 70°F / 21°C
  • Summer months are somewhat drier, but rainfall is spread relatively equally throughout the year
  • Since rainstorms generate the island's only supply of fresh water, residents welcome the brief storms - however few and far between
  • Hurricanes are not as prevalent here as in the Caribbean, but they do occasionally visit our island once every seven years or so
