Bermuda Craft Market

How to Plan the Perfect Trip to Bermuda

"I enjoyed the Royal Naval Dockyard Craft Market on Bermuda's West End, housed inside a former warehouse and barrel workshop constructed in 1831, where local artisans sell crafts, jewelry, and souvenirs like cigars, rum cake, prints and paintings, and rum swizzle mix." - Skye Sherman Skye Sherman Skye Sherman is a travel writer based in West Palm Beach, Florida.

"More than 60 artisans demonstrate how they create their crafts—and sell them, too—at this mazelike marketplace in the Old Cooperage of the historic dockyard. There are candles, stationery items and soaps. Some stalls offer antiques and nautical maps; others, old stamps and transportation tokens. Christmas keepsakes are perennially popular picks."

"If you’re searching for an authentic piece of Bermudiana to take home, look no further than the Bermuda Craft Market in the Royal Naval Dockyard. Housed inside an old stone cooperage where barrels were once stored for the British Navy, the bustling arts and crafts emporium is where you can peruse a massive collection of handmade goods, including jewelry, soaps, candles, Christmas ornaments, and ceramics. Most are sold by the artisans themselves, so it's also an opportunity to chat up a local. Into cigars? Pop by the table manned by Grant Kennedy, Bermuda’s only master cigar roller, who handrolls stogies with Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos." - David LaHuta
