Why you should go: At the southeastern tip of Bermuda, there’s a place that feels alluringly wild and untouched. The twelve-acre wooded reserve known as Cooper’s Island—part of Bermuda’s National Parks system and once the home of a NASA space tracking station—offers jaw-dropping views of the Castle Harbour chain of islands. After strolling its serene walking paths, splash in the sea on Turtle Bay, a beach with shallow, azure water.
