White Horse Pub & Restaurant
LUNCH TIME is your FREE TIME: 1.5 hours to recharge your battery. There are several restaurants in St. George for a lovely Bermuda lunch. If you are a fish lover you might want to try the authentic Bermuda Fish Sandwich (bermuda fish on raisin bread with tartar sauce). Absolutely delicious. That will go really nice with one of Bermuda's national drinks: the Bermuda Rum Swizzle or the Dark & Stormy. There's also shopping or a bit more exploring to do right there in King's Square (Town Hall or the State House) if you wish.
1 hour and 30 minutes

Royal Naval Dockyard
On the way back to the Dockyard, we continue with more commentary on Bermuda and more points of interest.
Driving along the Middle Road we pass the Warwick Academy: founded in 1662, is said to be the longest continually functioning private school in the Western Hemisphere. We then will pass 5 Star Island – situated in Little Sound, owned by the Engelhorn Family from Germany. Returning to the Dockyard (a different change of scenery) wraps up the completion of a great successful day.
