Bermuda has been highlighted as a destination by Men’s Journal which praised the island’s beauty and proximity to the United States.

The story, written by Mark Healy, details a three-day stay in Bermuda looking at the sites “sometimes overlooked between the marquee golf courses and the honeymoon coves”.

He hails the island as a mountain biking destination, writing: “Pick a point, east or west; no matter the route, you’ll be awash in Bermuda’s photogenic appeal: colourful stucco outcrops, amazing harbour views, and a string of postcard beaches (nearly all public) you can ramble through.

“Make your way from Horseshoe Bay up to Warwick Long Bay, one stunning beach after another, following a path in some spots and scrambling over rocks to get to others. And when you settle on your favourite, take a swim. You can be back at the hotel by midday for a nap or a gear change or lunch, which, if you’re smart, will include some fish chowder.”

Mr Healy also noted the food at Flame and Marcus’ and destinations like Bermuda’s caves and activities including rock climbing.
