BERMUDA

1.6 million years ago, a volcano erupted, creating a 3,000 meter-high island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The ocean level went up and down several times, and only a tiny part of that mass still stands out of the waters.

Shaped like a whale, Bermuda is a major tourist destination for its pink sandy beaches, lush climate, the green waters of the Sargasso Sea, and the friendly attitude of the local population.

The British flag still flies over the island, and the fear of corruption and lack of supervision that may come with full independence is keeping all possible movements at bay. Crime is low, and despite some concerns, the island is safe to walk and ride day and night.

The less than 2-hour flight from the East Coast of the USA gives Bermuda proper criteria to become a great vacation hotspot.
