"It is important to be respectful of local customs and traditions when visiting Bermuda. It is considered rude to wear revealing clothing in public, so it is best to dress conservatively. It is also important to be aware of the local laws and regulations, and to avoid any activities that are illegal in Bermuda. Additionally, it is important to be respectful of the local culture and to avoid making any comments that could be seen as offensive or insensitive. Finally, it is important to be mindful of the local environment and to avoid littering or damaging the natural environment," explained one expat living in Bermuda.
