"In Spanish Point, it's important to respect the local customs and traditions. Avoid wearing revealing clothing, especially in religious or formal settings, as it is considered disrespectful. Bermudians value politeness, so always remember to say "please" and "thank you". Avoid discussing sensitive topics such as politics and religion unless you are very familiar with the person you are talking to. It's also considered rude to interrupt someone while they are speaking. Littering is a serious offense in Bermuda, so always dispose of your trash properly. Also, avoid touching or disturbing the local wildlife, including the coral reefs, as they are protected by law. When dining, remember that it's customary to wait until everyone has been served before starting to eat. Also, tipping is expected in restaurants, usually around 15-20% of the bill. Finally, remember that Bermudians drive on the left side of the road, so be careful when crossing the street or driving," said a member in Spanish Point, Bermuda.
