Established in the early 19th century, the Royal Naval Dockyard served as a critical British naval base for over 150 years. Its role was central to protecting Atlantic trade routes, supporting naval operations across the Caribbean and North America, and reinforcing Bermuda’s strategic importance within the British Empire.

The Dockyard’s massive stone fortifications, limestone buildings, and maritime infrastructure remain largely intact today—preserved as a testament to Bermuda’s naval legacy and its connection to global powers across the UK, Europe, Africa, and the Americas.

St. George’s is not only a historic gem—it is a vital contributor to Bermuda’s economy. Tourism in the Old Town supports local restaurants, shops, tours, museums, and small businesses that reflect the creativity and resilience of the community. The town continues to evolve, balancing its heritage with modern development to meet the needs of today’s global traveler.

Boutique accommodations, waterfront dining, cultural festivals, and investments in preservation and tourism development all ensure that St. George’s remains an active and thriving part of Bermuda’s modern identity.

Over the past few months (October–December 2025) Bermuda has seen a worrying number of road crashes, including serious single-vehicle incidents, collisions involving motorcycles, and tragic fatalities. Recent coverage documents single-vehicle crashes where cars left the road and ended up in ditches or the water, multiple motorcycle collisions, a minibus crash, and other incidents that injured or, in some cases, killed road users. These events underline how fragile life on our roads can be and why planning your transport matters. 

The Bermuda Taxi Owners & Operators Association thanks the public for choosing regulated, professional transportation services. By making responsible travel choices, you help protect drivers, passengers, families, and our wider community.
We wish all Bermudians and visitors a safe, joyful, and memorable holiday season, and we look forward to serving you with professionalism, care, and island hospitality throughout the celebrations.
