Things to do & top attractions in Bahrain
You’ll find the best of both worlds in Bahrain, whether you want to pamper yourself with sunbathing and stylish dining at one of the many skyscraper hotels and beach resorts, or explore the 5,000 years of well-preserved history. Read on for more.
- Bahrain Fort (Qal’at al-Bahrain)
A 10-minute drive from Manama is Bahrain Fort. With glorious views across the Gulf, this UNESCO World Heritage site is a crucial archeological plot within the Arabian Gulf. Once the capital of ancient Dilmun, and more recently inhabited by Greeks, Arabs, and the Portuguese, many historical figures have walked its paths — and now you can do the same.
- The Lost Paradise of Dilmun Water Park
You can literally dive into Bahrain’s history at this world-class water park. With a theme based on the ancient kingdom of Dilmun, this 77,000-sq. meter playground is perfect for a family day out. Set against the desert landscape, this trip caters to all ages with everything from toddler-friendly pools to super slides and relaxing cabanas, plus plenty of restaurants to enjoy.
- Showaiter Sweets
Halwa is one of the most famed desserts within the Middle East, and Showaiter Sweets is where you’ll find the very best. At this longstanding Bahraini confectionery shop, the Showaiter family have been perfecting their melt-in-the-mouth recipe for over 200 years. With a fudge-like texture, the dish primarily consists of starch, sugar, and oil, with fruits and spices like nuts, saffron, or cardamom added for flavour.
Experience new activities in Bahrain
- Manama Souq
To really soak up the atmosphere of Bahrain’s authentic past, amble through the narrow streets of Manama Souq. Take in this open-air trading center’s bustling sights and sounds, and haggle for everything from jewelry to hand-woven home decor. Even if you’re not in need of anything new, delve into the local food and drink culture, from traditional Bahraini breakfasts to shawarma wraps.
- Snorkeling and pearl diving
It’s worth heading to the northern tip of Muharraq Island just for the crystal clear waters and colorful fish, but there’s more. While beginners can snorkel in the shallows, certified divers can delve deeper for Bahrain’s famous pearls. The activity is steeped in local culture, and because you can collect up to 60 oysters, you may even emerge with a shimmering keepsake.
- Bahrain International Circuit
Located in the Sakhir desert and approximately 35 km south of Manama, Bahrain International Circuit is an iconic spot for motorsports fans. Holding the Middle East’s first-ever Formula 1 Grand Prix in 2004, it continues to host a wide range of local and regional sporting events. Whether you just wish to admire the acclaimed track, or participate in karting or off-road experiences, there’s plenty to do outside the racing season.
Culture and Traditions in Bahrain
While Bahrain has an Arabic culture, it’s known for its cosmopolitanism and large expat population. To experience local tradition, we recommend enjoying the café culture where the delicious coffee is often ground with cardamom and saffron. Another custom is to while away the hours wandering the many historic souq markets.
