The history of Warwick — pronounced "warik" — is closely tied to the sea. Darrell's Island, visible from Harbour Road, was a quarantine area for arriving ships, the site of a prisoner tent camp during the Boer War and a refuelling station for trans-Atlantic vessels in World War II. It was also the site of Bermuda's first airport in 1937.
The past is also present in the many examples of traditional Bermudian architecture that grace this district. Across from the ferry landing are lovely homes with stepped white roofs, thick plastered walls of coral rock painted in cheery pastels, and whitewashed stone arches over doors and windows.
