Travel Tips from people who've been to Hamilton
The marina is the place to go when you have had enough of the resort pools and restaurants. It is a 10 to 15 minute walk from most resort accommodation and when you arrive you are greeted by the complete range of craft from small runabouts to luxury launches which travel the world. For those interested in doing their own thing you can hire powered runabouts to to go fishing or just look around the harbour and island bays, or perhaps hire a sail boat for a day or two.There are charter boats which will take you to the coral reefs, fishing etc. There are a number of shops around the marina including the General Store for grocery items, clothing shops, ice cream parlour, restaurants etc .

Hamilton, Home town, H-Town, H Block City, The H, some will refer to it as Hamiltron, or the tron aka city of the future, this is a nasty rumor, don't believe the hype.

To quote the Pouges..  'it's a dirty old town'

I live on the Eastside normally, formerly known as Irishtown...

You need to know anything specific, msg me, other than that important trivia to bear in mind : one end of town is a statue of farming family, other end is riff raff from the rocky horror picture show.  It is the perfect 'bell curve' town for surveys, product testing, and social experimentation.
