The Bermuda Islands, formerly known as Somers Island, are a self-governing British Overseas Territory located in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is the oldest British Overseas Territory, having been established a century or two before the English colonization of the United Kingdom and the enactment of the Act of Union 1707.
Only 20 of the islands in the archipelago are inhabited. Due to the frequent disappearances of ships in the waters surrounding them, it is known as the mysterious Bermuda Triangle, a world-renowned mystery. Bermuda enjoys a mild climate, with year-round spring-like weather, evergreen trees, and blooming flowers. Because it is hundreds of miles from the nearest landmass, the Bermuda Islands are surrounded by vast ocean, offering a picturesque scenery of blue skies, green waters, soaring seagulls, and fragrant flowers, primarily catering to high-income tourists.
