Jumpin' In on May 24 - Bermuda Day
May 24 is the first day of the year that "real" Bermudians will go swimming. The water is considered too cold before May 24 which is a public holiday known as Bermuda Day. It is a great reason for a party. Usually 100 or so boats will "raft up" in the middle of St. George's Harbour. This is a huge conglomeration of ships, boats, barges, dinghies, canoes, inner tubes, jet skis, you name it. Basically a large floating island and you can run from boat to boat for hours. Everyone has a beer to offer if you are too far away from your own stash. Other than Cup Match, this is pretty much the second biggest party of the year.
