Day: Daylight Saving Time (DST) typically ends in Bermuda on the first Sunday in November, when clocks are set back one hour at 2:00 AM to local standard time.
History: The practice of observing DST is rooted in efforts to make better use of daylight during the warmer months of the year. It has been adopted by many countries, including Bermuda, to extend evening daylight. The concept was popularized by Benjamin Franklin and was first implemented during World War I to conserve energy.
Traditions: In Bermuda, there are no specific traditions associated with the end of DST. However, it marks a transition period where locals and tourists alike prepare for the shorter days and longer nights typical of the winter season.
Activities: On the day DST ends, people in Bermuda may take advantage of the "extra" hour gained from setting clocks back. Some might use this time for additional rest, while others could engage in morning activities such as walking on the beach or enjoying a leisurely breakfast. The end of DST also serves as a reminder for residents to perform seasonal safety checks, such as replacing batteries in smoke detectors and ensuring that home heating systems are functioning properly.
