Tucker's Point Championship Golf Course Clubhouse

Bermuda is world-renowned for its marvelous pink sand beaches, stunning turquoise-green waters and quaint villages that slip visitors into a state of relaxation from the moment they arrive. Conveniently located off the coast of the Carolina’s, a short 90 minute flight from the US is all that separates American tourists from a place that seems to be a world away. Much to the Bermuda vacationer’s delight, a rare opportunity has developed to purchase their own slice of paradise. Situated amongst 200 acres of Bermuda waterfront property, resort-community Tucker’s Point is offering world-class estate homes, town homes, villas and several waterfront residences with deeded fractional and whole ownership plans available. With prices ranging from $295,000 to $3.2 million, it is certain that this opportunity will not last. Here are the reasons why.

Ownership in the Tucker’s Point community includes membership to a championship golf course and clubhouse, lighted clay tennis courts, and a beautiful beach club featuring two pools and Oceanside dining at the foot of Bermuda’s largest private pink-sand beach. The community also features a full-service spa, fitness center, and water sports center. Comfort, privacy and quiet relaxation are what define Tucker’s Point and are also what you can experience from the moment you board an aircraft chartered with Magellan Jets to Bermuda. A 90 minute flight followed by a short luxury sedan ride to Tucker’s Point is the essential start to your vacation and perfectly complements what awaits you at your destination. When your vacation sadly comes to end, Magellan will have your luxury sedan ready to transport you to the private jet ready to wisp you back to the mainland. As with any major purchase, however, you may want to experience the luxuries Tucker’s Point has to offer before making a deposit. For this purpose, charter a plane to Bermuda with Magellan Jets, and direct your driver upon arrival to the Tucker’s Point Hotel.

Scubacraft SC3 moving on the surface.

The salty breeze over your face, the waves crashing against the hull and the roar of powerful outboards create the exhilarating feeling as you advance your speedboat's throttles to the max. On the other end of the spectrum, the crystal clear view of the Caribbean’s sandy bottom, the majestic presence of tropical schools of fish and the serenity of being completely immersed in the natural beauty of the underwater world awaits scuba divers who are eager for adventure.  How is it possible to combine these sensations into one unforgettable aquatic experience? Purchase the SC3 Sport Leisure Scubacraft and experience the latest and greatest personal watercraft available. The Scubacraft synergizes a personal watercraft and scuba diving vehicle that can skim the surface at 45 knots and submerge beneath it up to 30 meters. It is the ultimate addition to your private yacht’s array of fun machines and features the latest technology, safety specifications and performance characteristics.

Scubacraft SC3 moving underwater.

The inherent risks of operating a fast water craft that functions as a submersible vehicle are greatly reduced by the SC3 Sport Leisure Scubacraft. For instance, the “positive buoyancy” design allows it to slowly float back to the surface should a power loss occur. However, if you notice an interesting shipwreck you can manually activate a “park mode” that allows the vehicle to neutrally float in the water column. Users don external scuba gear and can always freely swim to the surface should an emergency occur. The SC3 also features a VHF radio, underwater communication system, GPS, lights, an electronic surface marker buoy and an emergency position indicating radio beacon transmitter for added safety. Priced at $166,000 the SC3 Sport Leisure Scubacraft’s carbon-fiber construction is made to last and will provide years of fun and adventure on, and beneath, the water.
