Think white sand and palm trees, from the luxuriously developed to the wild and remote, this place ticks the boxes for a paradise island with all mod cons. It’s no surprise that Bermuda regularly tops lists of the best places in the world to live and all within a short flight of East Coast USA and a direct flight to London.
