4. Bahrain Bay Area

Just as you’re coming back from Muharraq, there’s an exit to Bahrain Bay’s bridge which takes you through a gorgeous drive behind all the highway traffic. You get to drive along a gorgeous sunset on the widest most emptiest bridge, as you approach Financial Harbour and Harbour Heights! Best part is, this drive helps you beat the traffic lights on the main highway.

3. Muharraq area

If you take the exit to Muharraq on the right, before Busaiteen, the road presents you with a gorgeous view of the entire skyline of Manama. Whether you’re there in the day or night, the view of the city is stunning.

2. King Faisal Highway

The main highway of Bahrain is probably the best drive to enjoy if you’re a fan of tall buildings. The highway leading to Muharraq features iconic buildings like the Bab Al Bahrain Souq, Financial Harbor to your left, and Bahrain’s World Trade Center to your right. This gorgeous highway is a lot of residents’ daily commute, and everyone LOVES the views, *minus the traffic at peak hour.

1. Drive to the King Fahd Causeway

A road trip to Saudi Arabia is always a good idea, but if you just want to go there for the views, King Fahd Causeway actually allows you to turn right back around before immigration! Head on over on a sunny day to enjoy some good music, and views of the Saudi-Bahrain border. Keep note to avoid going on weekends, because you’ll DEFINITELY get stuck in traffic.
