Bermuda Bays from Bermuda... |
Marine geologists say that 100 million years ago, this hook-shaped chain of little islands was part of the lip of a huge volcano, now long dormant. The submarine mount on which we’re perched rises 15,000 feet from the bottom of the sea. That part of Bermuda that is above the surface of the sea is surrounded by a wide platform of underwater coral reefs that protect us from stormy weather. This shallow platform gives our inshore seas colours that you won’t soon forget – stunning blues and greens that lap at the pink sand of our beaches.
