It’s Bermuda’s big day
We’re gazing down at Marley Beach on the southwest coast of Bermuda in honour of Bermuda Day, a public holiday celebrated near the end of May. The event was first established on this British island territory in 1902, to honour the late Queen Victoria’s birthday, but it has evolved into a celebration of the culture. Since 2018, it's been observed on the last Friday of May. Locals celebrate the end of winter on this day with a swim or boat ride. Today’s holiday also marks the date when islanders transition to a summer wardrobe at work. For the next several months, Bermuda shorts, which hit just above the knee, will be considered appropriate business attire for the island's most dapper gentlemen.
