Bermuda shorts: Explore this beachy British bastion like a local
"There’s an instant shorthand when you mention Bermuda: shorts, golf and the Pink Palace. That’s fair enough in some ways as the island nation is a prime place to tee off, with seven top-flight courses in just 21 square miles, and the Hamilton Princess remains a plush crash pad.
