EXPLORE off the grid
January is the perfect month to find your unique adventure in nature. Youʼll want to go off the beaten track. Here are four must-experience spots. Pack a lunch and bring your binoculars, a camera or just make sure your smart phone is charged!!
Cooper’s Island Nature Reserve
Cooper’s Island Nature Reserve features 12 acres of unspoiled beauty. The reserve is located at the eastern end of Bermuda in St. David’s. On its east is Cooper’s Island Road, which has a stretch of quiet beaches, while on its west sits beautiful Castle Harbour. Clearwater Beach and Turtle Beach, both public beaches, are located next to the reserve; there’s even a seasonal beach house with rentals. Nature trails will appear through a vast stretch of woodland area with introduced botanicals like Brazil pepper, casuarinas and allspice. Bermuda cedars, palmettos and olive woods are being re-introduced to the reserve.
Walsingham Jungle
Known to locals as Tom Moore’s Jungle, this nature preserve is comprised of 12 acres of forests, caves and secret swimming holes. It’s one of the island’s prettiest, most secluded nature walks, featuring networks of paths and arching trees. It’s also home to a mangrove forest and less trafficked subterranean caves. In fact, the best discovery might just be adjoining Blue Hole Park, with its dark blue pool of deep water. Entry to the park is free.
Hog Bay Park
Hog Bay Park is a quiet stretch of rural land featuring agricultural fields, woodlands and an old lime kiln. You won’t see any habitation, roads or hear any noise as you meander along the network of trails that go around the park. Bird watchers beware: bring your binoculars as the park is a mecca for resident and migrant birds. The trails lead to the coast line and offer panoramic views to the east and west. The entrance and car park is on Middle Road, Southampton. HITCH Bermuda’s UBER
Bermuda Forts are easy to find, in picturesque areas and you don’t have to be a history buff to enjoy them. Most have been restored, some are in parks, but all have gorgeous views.
Scaur Hill Fort & Park Somerset Road, Sandys
This fort was built to defend the Royal Naval Dockyard against the Americans during the war of 1812. Then in the 1940s, American guns defended the fort during WWII. While exploring, look for the deep gun pits and galleries which go deep into the hillside. The ramparts offer spectacular views of Ely’s Harbour and the Great Sound. Bus route 7 or 8 (operated between Dockyard and Hamilton)
Fort Hamilton Pembroke
Enjoy magnificent views over the City of Hamilton and its harbour. The upper levels and battlements have been landscaped with lawns, which make a fine place for a picnic. Entry is cross a wooden bridge over the deep dry moat and there are plenty of cannons and ramparts inside. If walking from Front Street head east and take a left towards King Street. Walk up the steep incline of Kings Street and turn right to Happy Valley Road. Fort Hamilton is on your right.
Alexandra Battery Ferry Reach, St. George’s
Located next to Frobisher’s Building Bay, where the Deliverance was built in 1610 to take shipwreck survivors on to Virginia. The Battery was completed in the 1860s and features a 9-inch muzzle loader at the southern end. A 30 minute walk from the St. George’s town square, just past Gates Fort.
Martello Tower Ferry Reach, St. George’s
The egg shaped fort was built in 1823 and features a moat, 9-11 foot thick walls of Bermuda stone, and a drawbridge. It is located on a hill at Ferry Reach Park, near Whale Bone Bay, a section of the Railway Trail and other coastal defence sites. Outside viewing only.
