There are a couple of caveats but nothing too restricting. It’s not yet been announced when this law becomes effective, but that will surely follow soon. The Cruise Ship (Casinos) Act 2013 permits cruise ships that are docked in Bermuda to open the shipboard casinos between the hours of 9pm and 5am, whereas previously casinos had to remain closed for the duration of the visit. Gamblers rejoice! It’s just been announced that the port of Bermuda will now allow cruise ships to open their casinos overnight whilst in port, following legislation that was passed this week.
