New tourism experiences for Bermuda

MORE than 20 home-grown ideas, out of a total 55 approved experiences, will receive investment funding from the #Bermuda #Tourism Authority for the first time in 2018. The 23 newly supported tourism experiences is the largest crop of successful new applicants since the process to find home-grown ideas began in 2014.

Newly supported experiences include Bermuda by Dune Buggy, a low-noise, electric vehicle tour experience that will travel via public roadway in the west end making stops at key sites. Meantime, a water transport mobile app known as WaterRide Transport also won cash investment for its innovative approach as a water shuttle. The Bermuda Triangle Beach Experience at Clearwater Beach is also on the list, the brainchild of the same Bermudian proprietors behind the Tobacco Bay Beach Experience.

Culinary experiences Sip & Savour Bermuda Food Tours and Wild Herbs N Plants of Bermuda were successful too and local performers will take centre stage in an expanded version of Made in Bermuda, a home-grown entertainment showcase.

About 70 percent of the investment for 2018 will go to experiences characterised as sports and adventure, while the remaining 30 percent is in the arts and culture realm. Bermuda’s success attracting younger, more experiential travellers over the past two years has raised the adventure-related demand.
