Health and Safety
In Bermuda the sun shines usually at about 10 UV Index in the afternoon. It's usually best to take a hat, sunscreen, and some water if your in the sun. Don't forget to seek shade. It's better to go in the morning so that you don't get burnt because the UV Index is lower.
PS. Don't forget to put on sunscreen every 1 hour.

Pilot Darrell's Square
Made in 1749, James Darrell was one of the most respected black pilots of Bermuda. But he was a slave. In 1789, he was one of the three slave pilots who was chosen for the work that led to the discovery of Narrows Channel in Bermuda and the Murray's Anchorage.
Slave pilots James Darrell, Jacob Pictar, and Tom Bean were chosen to work with Lieutenant Thomas Hurd, when he surveyed the waters around Bermuda in 1790.In May 1795, James Darrell piloted Admiral George Murray’s ship, the 74 gun HMS Resolution, into Murray’s Anchorage and the Admiral was so impressed with his skill that he recommended that Darrell be granted his freedom.
James Darrell received his freedom on March 1, 1796. Shortly thereafter he purchased a house on what is now Pilot Darrell’s Square. Pilot Darrell House was renovated in 1992 and is owned by his descendants.
