Gay Bermuda?

Heading to Bermuda in September, was wondering if there is any gay or gay friendly places to check out while there?

Unfortunately the island is still pretty homophobic. A bill was recently introduced to prevent discrimination based on orientation, and unfortunately it was shot down. There is GayBermuda.com for a listing of a few friendly places, but that site hasn't been updated in over a year so who knows if the places are still there!

We didn't find anything gay friendly about Bermuda. They are however money friendly. They like dollars of any orientation.

Any men (singles especially !) who are visiting Bermuda by ship.....I like to show off the island, the hidden Gay beach cove, and just enjoy a Dark and Stormy (the island's drink is dark rum and ginger beer).
Send me an email if you're heading to Bermuda or phone on arrival

No women?

Do you have any female friends who would show a lesbian couple around the island?

Hello Etoile. Wish I did have lesbian friends here but I don't. I also take your point about homophobia here; but not much different than other places, sadly. It does exist although I've never had a problem myself.
There is a quite a sizeable Gay community here but its not "out" as one might find in a large city. Any island is just a very small town.
