Google Sightseeing takes you on tour of the world as seen from satellite, using the free Google Earth program, or Google Maps in your web browser. Each weekday your guides James and Alex present new weird and wonderful sights as suggested by readers.
Out in the Atlantic Ocean is a small patch of high-res photos where you’ll find the island of Bermuda, an internally self-governing island overseas territory of the United Kingdom. Reader Patrick pointed out a Cruise Liner docked to the East of the island and Bill Beaty noticed a “wave-radiating aperture” for all you physicists.

Note also at the airport an airplane is JUST finishing crossing the threshold about to land. A Rare moment to be caught indeed!
Ironically, I was looking at this a few weeks back as I was just in Bermuda for vacation. The town that the ocean liner is in is Hamilton, Bermuda although the biggest ships land over at Dock Yard (here: Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth). It’s a really nice island with spectacular views.
I’m quite surprised by the level of detail around some parts of Bermuda. Its quite relaxing to zoom in and scroll around. I spent an hour determined to find a shark or whale but without success! lol
The western shots were taken post Hurricane Fabian Sept. 2003 In the southwest corner right on the water in the shape of a boomerang is the demolished Sonesta Beach Hotel.(Coutesy of Hurricane Fabian)
Is the Bimini Road visable?
Not sure what im doing cos this is my first post, so i hope it works!!!

how about this for a whale? roughly 100 ft long, but probably just light and shadow in the water…… Placemark: Google Maps / Google Earth
