Bermuda: Jungle Hike, Cave Swim & Pink Sand Snorkeling Tour

Summary

Swim blue caves hike Tom Moore’s jungle taste local flavors snorkel pink sand

You’ll hike through Bermuda’s wildest jungle with a local guide, swim in glowing caves, try cliff jumping if you dare, and taste real island flavors over lunch and homemade ice cream. Finish your day snorkeling off pink sands or just soaking up the peace—this is adventure without pressure.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing that hit me was the smell—damp earth and something sharp, like crushed leaves, as we ducked under the tangled canopy at Tom Moore’s Jungle. Our guide, Marcus, grinned when he saw my face (I guess I looked nervous) and promised we’d earn our ice cream. The light kept shifting through the branches while birds—kiskadees?—called out somewhere above. I’d never seen water that color before, not even in pictures: that Blue Lagoon is real. Cliff jumping looked easy until you’re up there staring down. My knees shook but Marcus just said “You got this!” so I did it. Still buzzing from that.

Caves always make me quiet. There’s this hush inside—the only sound was our footsteps crunching on old rock and someone’s laugh echoing weirdly off the walls. The swim was colder than I expected (goosebumps everywhere) but kind of magical with the headlamps making the water glow greenish-blue. We came out blinking into sunlight again, shoes muddy and everyone a bit giddy. Lunch after felt like a reward—fish sandwich on raisin bread (I didn’t expect to love that combo), and Li laughed when I tried to say “loquat” in Bermudian slang—definitely butchered it.

Afterwards we hit this little ice cream spot—tasted like summer if that makes sense—and then drove out to a stretch of pink sand I’d only ever seen on postcards. Some folks went straight for snorkeling around the reef; I just stood there for a minute letting my toes sink into cool sand while the wind whipped up salt spray. The coral was brighter than I thought it would be, fish darting everywhere. You can just wade in if you want; nobody rushes you here. Sometimes I still think about that view when things get noisy back home.
