Deliverance

Frommer's Review

Across from St. George's town square and over a bridge is Ordnance Island, where visitors can see a full-scale replica of Deliverance. The shipwrecked survivors of the Sea Venture built the pinnace (small sailing ship) in 1610 to carry them on to Virginia. The full-scale replica of Deliverance is still anchored full-time to Ordnance Island. It's one of the Disney-style adventure sights associated with the King's Square (St. George's main square). In midsummer, its caretakers are outfitted in 18th-century sailor's garb.

Adventure Enterprises owns Deliverance and also runs sightseeing and snorkeling adventures aboard its boat ARGO. Bermuda's only high-speed tour boat, ARGO (which fits neatly into small harbors) takes passengers along the barrier reef, the south-shore beaches, the historic forts, and the billionaires' mansions at Tucker's Town. Call for details, which change seasonally.
