A nice hint, this, and an honest one. Not a lot filmed here. The Admirable Crichton, some 2nd unit shots in A Touch of Mink, video footage in Life as a House, Bermuda Affair, Chapter Two ...

Another aerial view: look for this angle from the plane window.

In the foreground is Gibb's Hill lighthouse, Southampton, Bermuda and to the right the Southampton Princess Hotel where the cast stayed.
Taken from the lighthouse and showing the hotel, now known as the Fairmont Southampton. SJ

Hmm, couldn't find anything like this in Bermuda. Australia? Or possibly Marley Beach.
- Capture 5
- 'Now' required
Bisset and Nolte offload their scuba gear on the beach after some shipwreck exploring.
- Capture 6
- 'Now' required
Not sure where this bridge is but those look like remaining piers for the Bermuda railway which closed in 1948.
- Capture 7
- 'Now' required
Nolte and Bisset on the same bridge.

"By the way, the movie The Deep used this lighthouse in their story" found on the internet under Bermuda-Atrractions.com, with reference to St David's lighthouse.
But this is St David's right in the east of Bermuda: a similar colour scheme but it just doesn't match. SJ
- Capture 9
- 'Now' required
Nolte and Bisset pay a visit to Shaw in his lighthouse.
- Capture 10
- 22 Dec 2013
Known as The Causeway which connects the main island to St David's and the airport in the east.
Taken from St David's looking west. There has been some rebuilding. SJ

A long shot of the lighthouse: I'm thinking a set built in the northeast.
This is not a match but proof that we have the wrong lighthouse. And yet there are only two in Bermuda.
- Capture 12
- 'Now' required
Nolte and Bisset return from their visit to Shaw.
- Capture 13
- 'Now' required
Now being pursued.
- Capture 14
- 'Now' required
The pursuit continues.
- Capture 15
- 'Now' required
Evading the pursuers at an eye-catching junction. Maybe the Pembroke Pass in the Langton Hill area.
- Capture 16
- 'Now' required
Kidnapped by Gossett's henchmen at the junction.
- Capture 17
- 'Now' required
Nolte, Wallach, Bisset and Shaw. This may be the public dock on Mangrove Bay, Somerset Village, Sandys, demolished in 2006.
- Capture 18
- 'Now' required
And this could be the sports ground, the Wellington Oval, just south of Coney Island.
- Capture 19
- 'Now' required
The lighthouse again, now under siege.
- Capture 20
- 'Now' required
The jetty, with pilons of the old railway to the left. Could this be looking northeast from Coney Island Park?
- Capture 21
- 09 Nov 2013
And this doesn't even look like the set seen in earlier shots. A model?
Another shot to disprove St David's.
- Capture 22
- 'Now' required
Watching the model go up in flames.

Some helpful hints in the closing credits. The Peter Island Yacht Club is in the British Virgin Islands contributing to the underwater wreck scenes.
The Southampton Princess Hotel in Bermuda now. SJ
