Bermuda Dockyard activities

Recommended Posts

We are on the August 5th Dawn Cruise and have a few questions

about activities at the Dockyard?

 

1) What snorkel excursion do you recommend?

2) We aren't interested in a charter fishing trip but would like to

fish in the Dockyard area. Are there locations where you can

rent a fishing rod and buy bait for a couple of hours of fishing?

Do you need a license to fish in Bermuda?

3) What other excursions/rentals do you recommend that we can

do at the Dockyard?

 

Thanks

I don't think fishing is allowed off the pier at the Dockyard. Have never seen any place to rent fishing equipment around that area. We rented a Boston Whaler at Somerset Watersports about three years ago and my grandsons were able to rent fishing equipment and they even gave them some bait. The fished off the bow of the boat and had a great time. The did not need a license or, at least, that is what the guy at the boat rental told us.

My nephew and his girlfriend rented a boat at H2O water sports in Somerset when we were in Bermuda last month - weather was not that great but they wanted to go fishing. They provided them with fishing equipment and squid for bait - no license required. They just did catch and release but had a wonderful time. They booked the boat for 4 hours, but came in afte 2 1/2 hours - getting rained on and choppy seas.

I too suggest Somerset, while we didn't fish we took a Boston Whaler out, under back and forth under the bridge and out to the wrecks. They have us two loafs of bread and the fish were practically jumping into the boat, who needs a rod and reel?

 

Took the bus there and back had a great time.

FWIW

We actually are doing a jet ski tour at KS Watersports. It's $155 for a two person jet ski for an 1.25 hour tour. Advantage is that it's right at the dockyard, so no cost for transportation there.
