Bermuda Holidays - Bermudan Trivia

Bermuda holidays are the perfect opportunity to find out more about this unique island paradise in the Atlantic Ocean. Here is a little taster of facts and trivia to get you started :
  • Bermuda shorts: Most people on Bermuda holidays will, at some point during their holiday on the island, take the plunge and slip on a pair of Bermuda shorts. They have become the national dress of the island, being sported by the country's athletes at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The shorts have become so popular that they are worn by people from all backgrounds on the island - men and women, white collar and blue collar. They can even be worn as formal wear, in darker colours rather than the more usual pastel. The shorts were developed from the hot-weather uniform of the British army.
