Bermuda in May?

[catty]

Have not decided if I want to go on the Breakaway to Bermuda from New York or to the Eastern Caribbean from Miami. What is the water temperature in Bermuda at that time of year? And what is your opinion of the Breakaway? Thanks?

We always go in April or May...not water people...golfers and the weather is perfect. Went once in Sept....hot and humid!

Went a few times in May, the weather is warm perfect in the day cooler in the evenings and the water is freezing!

Thank you! I love the water so I guess I'll go Eastern Caribbean in May...:)

I went to Bermuda last May. Weather was awesome, and we were in the water a lot. We found the ocean water to be just fine for swimming.

Maybe it's because I'm used to the cold northern Atlantic, but I've had no issue snorkeling in Bermuda in May. 75* water is typically warmer than anything we get in Mass, even in August. I guess it's all relevant.
