This is a fascinating pair because these 2 cities are EXACT opposite ends of planet earth

If you make a hole 12,500 km in Bermuda ground you come out in Perth

From Perth also you can go a straight line through any city you want and continuing that straight narrow path you will ultimately run into Bermuda, as any such path will great circle route to the antipode. If you want to go over the North Pole from Perth you’ll get the Equator first then stay on same longitude through Eastern Siberia till south down opposite end of the world (Maritime Canada).

South Pole first you’ll get a South America routing up the Caribbean to Bermuda.

As most flight paths go, it’s Perth to Sydney to LAX to JFK to Bermuda

But you can also do Perth to Mumbai to Dubai to Paris to Bermuda

Or Perth in a great circle U shape that goes straight to Capetown South Africa and up the south Atlantic in towards Bermuda

You can do Perth straight to Osama bin Laden’s hiding place and that course will continue northwest till somewhere up in Sweden then bearing change west and southwest to Bermuda
All roughly equal distances
(Sounds more easy to believe when you piece together if you want to go from the North Pole surface path directly to the South Pole, you much cover all lines of latitude but can choose any longitude you want and stick to it, hence you can choose a path that can potentially run any spot on Earth.). That Also must hence hold true for all other pairs of opposite points on the sphere.

Both are middle latitude cities
Hamilton is humid subtropical
Perth is hot Mediterranean

Bermuda is cooler than Perth December thru April but mostly the high temp not the low temp

But in June-Sept then it’s Perth’s turn to be winter and it’s then much colder/drier than Bermuda all the way to November.

It will always be daytime in at least Perth or Bermuda no matter what

No poll? Perth, btw. Bermuda is borderline tropical Af, it fits much better than Cfa in my opinion.

I hate sticky, tropical summers... but Bermuda has got better winters tho. I also prefer Perth's sunshine hours.

Perth for cooler winters, but Bermuda has better summers with more rain. Both are pretty nice. Perth is a B and Bermuda is a B-.
