St George's Island and Area Attractions

St George's Island is the site where Bermuda began. Bermuda was claimed for England after the English ship Sea Venture was shipwrecked here in 1609. In 1612 the first settlers arrived and began life in the town of St George, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Town of St George, its surrounding fortifications, and nearby St David's Island compose this interesting area located on the east end of Bermuda.
