Cricket

 

Bermuda’s top sport, cricket is played throughout the Island, mainly in midsummer. There are approximately 30 regional teams and the most watched event - Cup Match - is a weekend-long festival that pits the St. George’s and Somerset cricket clubs against one another and sees huge annual turnout. It’s not to be missed!

Bermuda offers the finest golfing and has more courses per capita than anywhere else in the world. Tournaments are held frequently and October’s annual Bermuda Open at the Port Royal Golf Course is among the most publicized.
