About Bahrain
Linking the East and West, Bahrain – which means “Two Seas” in Arabic – is set among several islands in the Arabian Gulf. Its strategic position has made it one of the region’s most significant commercial crossroads for over 4,000 years as a trading hub and route for the pearl-diving industry.
Bahrain is an archipelago of 33 islands located off the coast of Saudi Arabia. This location means there are essentially two seasons: hot summers and relatively mild winters. Discover the appeal of experiencing both times of year in this unique and distinctive destination.
