Bermuda Great Reef - North Shore
The Bermuda Great Reef, off the North Shore, offers a solid reef dive for divers looking to explore the area's coral formations. It's not a site that screams for attention, but we found it reliably delivers a decent showing of common Caribbean reef fish and hard corals. Expect a relaxed dive suitable for newer divers or those wanting a calm afternoon in the water. We'd suggest pairing it with another North Shore spot for a full day out.
