Bermuda Cruise Questions

[cruisekitty22]

We want to use our FCC on a cruise to Bermuda. Neither one of us has been to Bermuda before.  This would be for 5 day cruise on the Encore from NY with an overnight in Bermuda in November 2020. How cold is Bermuda in November? I assume its too cold for the beach which is fine with us. Do the bars and casino  on the ship stay open all night when  we are docked in Bermuda?  Would we still be able to do the race cars if the ship is docked? This is a deal breaker for DH.

When we cruised to Bermuda in 2015 and 2017, the casino did open later in the evening.  Bars and restaurants will be serving during normal hours but a few may be closed while in port - you should always have options to eat and drink.  We typically did breakfast, went ashore for the entire day then came back for dinner on the ship most evenings.  I believe the temps during winter are mild (70s), should be fine to do everything except water sports.  We love Bermuda and would like to go sometime during the cooler months.  My birthday is in November so that's an idea. 😉 Enjoy!

Casinos opened at 9pm each night when we were in Bermuda.  Bars, restaurants and entertainment were all available.

When in November?  We were there in late October & it was quite nice temperature & weather-wise.

A good gage is what the Carolinas weather is like that time of year but google can also give you an estimate.

Could you go in October?    I've been to Bermuda in October and its lovely.   Still really warm but minimal crowds.

The race track is open late in the day on port days and not at all if weather is bad. They also base it on reservations  to decide hours of operation.

I went to Bermuda in November out of NYC. The weather in Bermuda was good or at least warm but going and coming were quite cold and most stayed inside. I went early November and beaches were still a possibility, I only dipped my feet in myself but the water was not freezing. 

 

The casino opened at 9 while we were docked in Bermuda on the Dawn. For some reason I really thought on the Breakaway a few years prior it had been 6 so I'm not sure if time is ship specific, the rules changed or I'm just remembering wrong.

You 're just remembering wrong. Ever since Bermuda has allowed ships to open their casinos the opening time has been 9 pm.

Go mid to late October
