Bahrain is the smallest country in the Persian Gulf, but it’s packed with culture, adventure and beauty. It’s also the Middle East’s only island nation, making it a unique destination in this part of the world. Whether you’re relaxing on sandy beaches or visiting grand mosques, there’s so much to discover.

Fly to Bahrain with British Airways for a holiday unlike any other. The capital, Manama, mixes office blocks and shopping malls with historic buildings and crowded souks, but away from the city, the 33 islands scattered across Bahrain’s archipelago are home to rare wildlife. While much of the country is covered by desert sands, you can relax, cycle and picnic in green spaces like Prince Khalifa Bin Salman Park, or head to the beach to swim. Then there’s Bahrain’s national museum and many forts, which show off the country’s thousands of years of history. Book your flight to Bahrain today.

Bahrain flight FAQs

How long is a flight to Bahrain?

A flight from London to Bahrain Interational Airport takes six hours and 35 minutes.

Which airports does British Airways fly to Bahrain from?

We fly to Bahrain from London Heathrow.

What’s the cheapest month to fly to Bahrain?

The easiest way to find the cheapest flights to Bahrain is by using our low fare finder. Prices may be higher between December to March as the temperatures are cooler, so if you can handle the heat, visiting at another time of the year might save you some cash.

When’s the best time to visit Bahrain?

Bahrain’s desert climate means it’s warm year-round, with December to March offering a break from the hottest temperatures. Formula 1 fans should visit during the spring to catch their favourite drivers competing for trophies in the Bahrain Grand Prix. It’s also worth noting that restaurants and shops often close for Eid and Ramadan, so if you’re not visiting for these holy events, you may prefer to visit at a different time.

Is Bahrain cheap to visit?

You can adapt your trip to Bahrain to fit your budget with a little forward planning. Like other Middle Eastern countries, there are lots of large shopping malls and high-end restaurants on offer, but you don’t have to spend a huge amount to have a great time. Take advantage of some of the free cultural activities, like entry to the Busaad Art Gallery and Siyadi House, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Is it easy to get around Bahrain?

You can reach Bahrain’s capital, Manama, in around 20 minutes by taxi, and 30 minutes by bus. The island nation is the smallest country in the Persian Gulf, so it doesn’t take long to reach any of the sights via public transport, or by car if you choose to hire one.

Why visit Bahrain?

These days Bahrain is known for its Formula 1 events, but there’s much more to be uncovered. Here you can dive for pearls, buy 24-carat gold jewellery in the bustling souks and visit ancient sites. Bahrain was once home to one of the oldest civilisations in the Middle East, meaning there’s 6,000 years of history hidden beneath its modern surface. Then you can take in the Islamic architecture, soak up the warm weather and explore the art scene, before indulging in a meal at one of the country’s excellent restaurants.
