The Bermuda Coat Of Arms is a classically designed green and white shield. This official Coat Of Arms depicts the 1609 shipwreck of the Bermuda ship Sea Venture, displayed on an elaborately designed shield that is held by a red lion. A blue sea, white background and blue sky adorn the depiction of the ship sinking about a mile off the Bermuda coastline. The flag is proportionally designed with dimensions of 1:2, height to length.

In 1981, the order of the colored stripes changed, and then in 1988, the location of the bird in the middle of the flag was flipped in order to face the other direction.

The background is filled with a red color at the lower side of the black stripe and toward the fly side, and a green color above it toward the hoist side. The red color is meant to pay tribute to the tribulations of the native peoples as they endured years of slave trade and eventually won freedom from enslavement. The green background represents the fruitfulness of the nation, the abundant vegetation and growth. The yellow band recalls the plentiful sunshine they enjoy, while the black stripe shows the proud African legacy of the region. White stars represent the two entities, St. Kitts and Nevis.

The green stripe represents the beautiful native vegetation that grows on the island and those islands in it's vicinity. Green diamonds are centered in the gold stripe, depicting the three primary islands that make up the Grenadine group, or the group of islands which define St. Vincent's location.
