Tips for transportation
Shop carefully for your bus passes. If you are stopping more than 1 week, buy the one month pass. Always use passes and not money or single trip vouchers. It is a lot cheaper to buy what you need (or more), than to try to pay-per-trip. DON'T RENT SCOOTERS. Driving is bad. The chances of injury and treatment costs are NOT worth it. Stay at a place where bus or ferry is easily available.

More
May to October, the island is very crowded with cruise ship visitors. They overload the buses, the ferries and restaurants. The buses also run their air conditioning too low at this time of year. They are freezing!

---

More
There is virtually no electrical noise. LF bands are super. However, bring noise-cancelling headphones as most places are hard walled and tiled, so noise is carried easily and in echoes.

---

More
Bring a good folding umbrella for the sun and the frequent Bermuda showers.

More
SAVE WATER!!!! Ask a local why. Shower with a friend :-)
