Gambling on Bermuda cruise

[paradise825]

Looking at the cruise to Bermuda. The ship is docked in port for 3 days. Does the ship casino open while in port, especially since Bermuda had no casinos.

No gambling while ship is docked in Bermuda. If you're a gambler it sucks but it is what it is.

Last I read Bermuda allows the ship's casino to open between 9 PM and 5 AM while docked in port. I do not have personal knowledge of this, but have read it, and the restriction is enough that I have avoided booking a Bermuda cruise. I'd rather visit ports like Grand Turk where they allow the ship's casino to remain open while docked. My thinking is we get enough government intrusion into our lives at home, so why be subjected to more than necessary while on vacation, especially when we have a choice.
