• One-of-a-kind shops provide an eclectic variety of treasures
• Bermuda has the highest concentration of golf courses in the world for a country its size (several are award winning), so you are bound to find one that is just right

to Bermuda
Provides a Convenient & Fun Vacation
When I think about Bermuda with its signature pink sand beaches flanked by the shimmery blue waters of the Atlantic, it’s a vision strong enough to warrant planning my next getaway. Equally appealing is Bermuda’s culture, which extends far beyond its well-known beaches. The island’s British heritage is a strong influence, serving up everything from cricket games
to afternoon tea. In my mind, the opportunity to combine both European and elements that feel Caribbean into one vacation provides a winning combination that is hard to beat.
Celebrity Cruises understands this appeal, and couples Bermuda’s Europe-meets-Caribbean character with attentive onboard service, delicious cuisine, and comfortable yet luxurious accommodations. The fact they provide this refined luxury with a dose of sun together in a single trip to one of
the world’s most popular destinations, and do so from a port convenient to Central Pennsylvania, makes it even better. After all, who doesn’t like convenience?
The Celebrity Summit® departs locally from Cape Liberty, New Jersey, cruising directly to the Royal Naval Dockyard, the island’s main cruise port. The port, located on the West End of the island, serves as a hub for sightseeing, shopping, dining, entertainment, and an array of island experiences. Arriving cruise ships berth here at either King’s Wharf or Heritage Wharf.
You don’t have to venture far from the ship to begin sightseeing, as the Dockyard is home to the Bermuda Maritime Museum. Nearby, you’ll find many of the renowned beaches, including Horseshoe Bay and Warwick Long Bay. Be sure to climb up Gibbs Hill Lighthouse for panoramic views of the South Shore, and explore the village of Somerset, home to calm bays, candy-colored churches, and the most photogenic little drawbridge you’ll ever see.
Celebrity’s Bermuda cruises are popular for a variety of reasons – the beach, island culture and local departure convenience being among the obvious, but another is the fact that the ship stays in port for an extended period of time, affording passengers plenty of time to explore this 21-mile-long paradise, soak up the sun and see just about everything Bermuda has to offer.
