First Time in Bahrain

A singular country-archipelago, Bahrain is a fascinating mix of Arabian and Persian culture.

• A modern financial and cultural centre of the Arabian world and the heart of the kingdom, the capital Manama is a city looking towards the future. Charming streets with colourful open-air markets, or souq, and crafts workshops, modern skyscrapers and important museums with priceless treasures make up this distinct backdrop. You will find most of the country's sights right here, including the National Museum, the Al-Fateh Grand Mosque and Qal’at al-Bahrain Fort, built on top of five layers of buried cities.
• The former capital of the ancient civilisation of Dilmun, Muharrak stands out with its atmospheric old town and the impressive Bahrain pearling trail, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a testament to the country's centuries-old tradition in pearl diving. It is a 3.5 km trail that features 17 important commercial buildings, the residences of wealthy pearl merchants, shops and coastal diving facilities.

Trip ideas in Bahrain

The Bahrain archipelago and the inhospitable landscape of the Arabian desert hide unexpected surprises.

• A massive Prosopis cineraria (ghaf) tree, known as the "Tree of Life", has survived near Askar, in the middle of the desert, for 400 years. It is worth visiting this miracle of nature, as the source that nourishes it remains a mystery to this day.
• The best way to explore the underwater paradise of Bahrain is to take a mini-cruise to the more remote islands, like Jarada atoll. Warm turquoise-blue waters and surprising encounters with rare mammals make this an unforgettable experience.
• Sitrah Island off the eastern shore of Bahrain is the ideal destination for pearl diving. It is worth taking part in one of the safaris fishing for natural pearls, specially organised for tourists, and have a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Spring and autumn are the best seasons to enjoy Bahrain's natural beauty and the countless festivals, such as the multifarious "Spring of Culture". For car-racing fans, April is the month of the annual F1 Grand Prix in Bahrain. Book your tickets with Aegean Airlines and enjoy an endless entertainment experience in the kingdom of two seas.
