celebrity summit cruise to bermuda: crystal cave

after walking around st. george on our second day in bermuda, we boarded a bus and went to crystal cave.  bermuda is known for its beauty above ground, but it is also known for its incredible caves below ground.

crystal cave was discovered in 1907 and features incredible stalactite and stalagmite formations among a 55-foot deep lake of truly crystal clear water.  walking through the cave, it was hard to fathom that the formations we were looking at started over 30 million years ago!  i have had the opportunity to tour other caves before, but crystal cave was something special.  i'm glad we had the chance to see it while we were in bermuda (despite the fact that we had to wait in line several hours to get in)!

here are some pictures from crystal cave . . .

celebrity summit cruise to bermuda: st. george

we were so happy that we had such great weather at horseshoe bay beach on our first day in bermuda.  unfortunately, the weather wasn't so great on our second day.  we woke up to overcast skies, but we didn't let that stop us from enjoying our time on the island, so we hopped on a water ferry and rode to st. george.

when we boarded the water ferry, we sat on the top open-air deck in hopes of getting some great views of the island on our ride to st. george.  within minutes of taking our seats, the skies opened up and it began to pour.  needless to say, we were all soaking wet for the rest of the day.

we huddled under the little overhang on the top deck of the water ferry during our ride to st. george.  luckily, the rain let up a bit when we got to st. george so that we could walk around the town.  one thing i love about the historic town of st. george is that it is so quaint.  you feel like you are stepping back in time.  despite the rain, we had a nice time walking around the town.

here are some photos from our ride on the water ferry and from st. george . . .

celebrity summit cruise to bermuda: horseshoe bay beach

when our cruise ship arrived in bermuda, we docked for three days at the royal naval dockyard.  on our first day in bermuda, we spent the day at horseshoe bay beach.

horseshoe bay beach was our absolute favorite spot last time we were in bermuda and it was a big reason we wanted to go back to bermuda again this year.  we had a gorgeous day with perfect weather.  the beautiful pink sand beach with crystal clear water is like something right out of a movie.  it was absolutely exquisite.  we spent the day there, swimming in the water and exploring the many rock formations around the beach.

here are some photos from our time at horseshoe bay beach . . .

we loved horseshoe bay beach so much that ryan and i went back again on our last day in bermuda while our parents went to the bermuda aquarium . . .
