Bermuda Aquarium, Museum and Zoo is to undergo restoration work

Work to repair hurricane damage at the Bermuda Aquarium, Museum and Zoo from the past few years is due to begin on September 5 and will last about a month.

During that time, all major exhibits will remain open but the lawn area next to the children’s playground will be closed off to the public.

The work includes the restoration of the property’s foreshore area.

At times, equipment and vehicles may be moved to the lawn from the main road which may cause temporary delayed access to exhibits in the zoo.

A BAMZ spokesperson said: “BAMZ would like to thank our visitors for their patience as we repair and prevent further erosion to our northern coast.”
