Is Bermuda island a volcano?
Bermuda is a basically a volcanic sea mountain that formed from the mid-Atlantic ridge about 100 million years ago. Its volcano is extinct and most Bermudians don't seem to be worried about the possibility of the volcano erupting in their lifetime.
How do people in Bermuda interact with their environment?
Because of the water, nice temperature, and land, sports are a part of almost every Bermudians life. Water sports are the most popular, aside from cricket. Land sports are also pretty popular. Because of the lack-of-other-things-to-do issue, sports are the next resort. Bermuda doesn't have any amusement parks, or major things for people who don't like history to do, so it makes recreation a very popular thing.
How was water street named in Bermuda?
My bet would be because its by the water and in St. Georges. Knowing Bermuda and how streets are named things don't always have to make sense. There are a few main streets that are important like middle and south shore but after that it really doesn't matter. You'll find a lot of bermudians like myself dont even know many of the road names, even in town! It's somewhat sad but many times ppl use land marks to understand where things are.
Words from Bermuda?
In stead of saying "man" as in 'hey, man' or 'whats up, man?' You say 'bye' 'hey, bye' or 'whats up, bye?' also some rare words are 'peasin' (as in 'get peasin, bye') means hurry up, and knighted means you've got a bad attitude ( 'ya real knighted this mornin') Another old word is 'do' which comes from when men tip there hat to a lady and say 'how do you do' ( It was shortend to 'do') Bermudians also sometimes say wanilla instead of vanilla. There are many more which I can't be bothered to name so that's it.
What is the national flower of Bermuda?
Describing anything as "national" in Bermuda is a potentially explosive act. Bear in mind that Bermuda is not a nation, it is part of the UK (the UK government, those Bermudians who are independence minded, and the generally ignorant use semantic games to describe it otherwise, but Bermuda is not a protectorate (a foreign nation, or the sovereign territory of a people who are not British nationals, but which is under British administration), but a colony (in the current parlance, an overseas territory). The national flag is the Union Jack, not the Red Ensign with the Bermudian coat of arms, the national anthem is God Save The Queen, and all political authority is ultimately delegated from London, even if it pretends otherwise.That being said, the national (or territorial, if you prefer...or colonial) flower is the Bermudiana, a type of Iris endemic to the archipelago. This may have recently been discovered to occur naturally in Ireland (blue-eyed grass), as well, so may be revised to native to Bermuda, rather than endemic (being both native and unique to).

What are some names of local eating fish in Bermuda?
The (locally caught, as opposed to imported) fish most commonly eaten by Bermudians are mostly species associated with the reefline, or inshore areas. Some deep sea fish are caught and eaten, as well. Most fish consumed in Bermuda is probably imported, whether sold fresh or in a tin. I will ignore those. The species which were considered most desirable for consumption have been overfished for decades. The most common way to catch them was by submerging wooden-, or pipe-framed, wire mesh-covered cages (called "fish pots") in shallow areas, and returning for them after they had time to gather fish. The cages were baited to lure fish in, and the entry passages tapered inwards, allowing fish to swim in, but not easily to escape. This method of fishing was so effective that it was banned about twenty years ago. It is hoped that over-fished species are being restored. Some of the types of fish that had been very popular, but are now rarely encountered on a table, include groupers, and hinds. Other fish that have traditionally been popular include grey snappers. Jacks, pompano, hogfish, wahoo, dolphins (increasingly called mahi-mahi, so as not to alarm those thinking they are mammals) and others are popular, as well. Grey mullets are reputed not to be easy to catch, as they will not take a line, but St. David's Islanders traditionally caught them in nets for their roe. St. David's Islanders also caught and ate Atlantic bream, which are traditionally avoided by other Bermudians, who consider them unclean. Sharks of several types may be caught, and are traditionally prepared as a spiced hash. Deep water fish include those species caught primarily for sport, which may be eaten. Marlin are very popular with anglers, though I am not certain they are often eaten...especially as most anglers in Bermuda operate on a catch-and-release basis, provided they are not taking part in a tournament that requires returning the catch for measurement and weighing. Tuna are very common in the deep Atlantic around Bermuda, and tuna fishing boats from Asia and the Philipines have long operated in the area (they are required to be licensed by the Bermudian government, which controls an area within a radius of 200 miles from the island). Swordfish is also popular in Bermuda.
