Best Bermuda Island Cruises

Bermuda is a stunning island territory in the North Atlantic Ocean, about 600 miles off the coast of North Carolina. Most Bermuda cruises depart from East Coast U.S. ports like New York, Boston, Baltimore, or Cape Liberty, offering convenient access for U.S. travelers and scenic days at sea en route to paradise.

Avoya partners with leading cruise lines that specialize in Bermuda itineraries, including Norwegian Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, Carnival, and Princess Cruises. Whether you're looking for family-friendly fun or a premium adults-only experience, Avoya can help you find the right match.

Most Bermuda cruises dock at the Royal Naval Dockyard, offering easy access to the island's iconic attractions such as Horseshoe Bay Beach, Crystal Caves, Hamilton, St. George’s, and the Bermuda Railway Trail. Some cruise itineraries include multiple overnight stays, giving you more time to explore the pink sand beaches and British colonial charm.

The best time to cruise to Bermuda is between April and October, when the weather is warm, the beaches are at their best, and cruise availability is high. Summer months (June through August) are popular for families, while spring and fall often offer lower fares and smaller crowds. Avoya can help you find the perfect sailing based on your preferred travel dates.

For U.S. citizens on a closed-loop cruise (one that departs and returns to the same U.S. port), a passport is not required, but it’s highly recommended. You can cruise with a birth certificate and government-issued photo ID, but a passport simplifies the process and provides peace of mind in the event of an emergency. Avoya Advisors will help confirm what’s needed for your specific cruise.

Pack lightweight, breathable clothing, swimwear, reef-safe sunscreen, comfortable sandals or water shoes, and a hat or sunshade. If you’re planning to visit churches or take historic walking tours, bring a modest outfit and comfortable walking shoes. Evening attire may be required for some cruise lines, so check with your Avoya Vacation Planner for cruise-specific packing tips.
