Clocktower Mall
Old storehouse is newly stocked with Bermudian gifts and souvenirs.
 Once upon a time, the icon of Royal Naval Dockyard was the old storehouse, with its twin 100-foot towers — one for a clock, one for a tidal indicator — and its walls 3 feet thick.
Clocktower Mall still serves as an icon of the old fort and as a storehouse of sorts, although updated a couple centuries and filled with arts and crafts, Bermuda tea towels and bun warmers, cedar oils, coconut cakes, Cuban cigars, dolls and puzzles, fragrances at duty-free prices, hand-painted wood carvings of tropical fish, ice cream and frozen yogurt, island teas and spices, ladies’ fashions, pink Bermuda cottages, sachets, shoes, sterling silver, snorkel gear, T-shirts, wind chimes, and such.
Modern Clocktower Mall reopened in 1990 with 10 shops. Today, with more than 24 shops, it brims with major department stores and interesting boutiques. The mall opens seven days a week, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. from April 1 to Dec. 31 (until 9 p.m. on Monday evenings during Destination Dockyard), and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. from Jan. 1 to March 31.
