Go shopping in souks

Persian carpets, gleaming gold and Arabian spices – find all this and more in Bahrein. The Manama Souk is a maze of streets crammed with shops and stalls where vendors will try to tempt you to purchase their wares. In the Gold City, you’ll find all kinds of jewellery, however, the Al Aali Mall is an exceptional experience. This is a modern shopping centre with a surprise – the Al-Tawaweesh Souk. Part of the mall has been designed in the form of an Arabian souk. It looks like traditional Arabian streets, but with the comfort of air-conditioning.

Go pearl diving in the Gulf

Bahrein is an island that is connected to Saudi Arabia by bridge. As it’s surrounded by water, Bahrein is great for diving, with pearl diving being a major attraction. This tradition goes back centuries and was one of Bahrein’s main sources of income. Take a pearl diving course, learn about the history of this tradition and dive down to Bahrein’s largest pearl beds. Best of all, if you find a pearl, you can keep it!
