Devil's Hole Aquarium Bermuda
Incidentally the name "Devil's Hole" derives from the eerie sound of the sea water entering and leaving the hole, and the locals called it moaning of the devils. The sea water that enters through the channels and caverns keep the water here fresh.
This Aquarium was actually created by a businessman named Trott in 1830. In order to stop the locals from fishing in the water area here, he built a wall around it. That led to suspicion among people who started asking questions about what was happening inside. So Trott later opened it to the public. However, being an astute businessman, he charged an admission fee.
There is a gift shop and a restaurant called Angel Wings Café within the complex.
From Devil's Hole Aquarium, it's possible to take a road to the Flatts village and to North Shore road. However, you can also go to the South Road in the direction of Tucker's Town that has two great Bermuda golf courses. By the way, Tucker's Town is not actually a town but a collection of exclusive communities and luxury resorts set in hills and sheltered coastal bays.
The admission fee at Devil's Hole Aquarium is $5 for adult and $3 for child under 12.
