"No Bermuda museum is as glitzy, modern, and innovative as this 41,000-square-foot discovery center on the outskirts of the city of Hamilton. Dedicated to exploring Bermuda’s vast underwater world , the Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute (BUEI) features three floors of exhibits, many playfully interactive, making it perfect for families with young kids or anyone interested in learning more about the island’s diverse marine environment. BUEI has an enormous collection of gold doubloons, intact artifacts, and priceless treasures from the sea floor, in addition to one of the largest shell collections in the world. Make sure to test out Blue Echo, a small theater-like dive simulator that recreates a plunge to 12,000 feet." - David LaHuta
