The June Solstice, also known as the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, is the day when the sun reaches its highest position in the sky and is the day with the longest period of daylight. In Bermuda, an island located in the North Atlantic Ocean known for its subtropical climate, this typically occurs on June 21st but can happen between June 20th and June 22nd.
In many cultures, solstices have historically held significant meaning and were often associated with fertility, growth, and sunlight.

On this day in Bermuda, locals and visitors alike can enjoy various outdoor activities that take advantage of the extended daylight hours:
Traditionally there are no specific rituals or celebrations tied directly to the June Solstice in Bermuda; it's more about embracing outdoor living and enjoying nature’s bounty. However, as an island community with strong ties to nature, Bermudians recognize this day as a marker of summer’s beginning.
