Weather

Rain is a non-factor here almost every month — the real story of the year is temperature, swinging from January's cooler stretch to July's peak heat. In January, expect highs around 24°C with rain on roughly 3 days of the month.

Things to Do

The Bahrain National Museum and the country's pearl-diving heritage sites reflect its history as a pearling center.

Local Cuisine

Try machboos, a spiced rice dish shared across the Gulf, often with fish here.
