The Sea Festival was launched in 2016 as a celebration of Bahrain’s historical ties to the sea. Basically, the event aims to educate visitors and tourists about the Kingdom’s ‘sea legacy’ by carrying out sea-related activities and traditions, Bahrain News Agency (BNA) reported.
During this year’s festival, everyone can expect to enjoy:
- Boat rides
- Handicrafts
- Pearl merchants
- Outdoor cinema

- Water sports activities
- Interactive play area for kids
- Traditional music performances
- On-stage Sea World Performance (Cirque De La Mer)
