When to go
The best time to visit Bahrain goes from
mid-November to mid-March, in order to avoid the heat of the rest of the year.
Between December and February, the weather is generally mild and pleasant, but you must put into account some cool days, especially in January and February, a bit of cold at night, and even some rain.
In November, the weather is still hot, but not excessively so, in fact, highs are around 28 °C (82 °F), while in March, they are around 25/26 °C (77/79 °F).
What to pack
In
winter: bring light clothes for the day, a sweater and a jacket for the evening and for cool days, and a scarf for the wind.
In
summer: bring lightweight clothes, loose-fitting and made of natural fabric (cotton or linen), a desert turban, a sweatshirt and a scarf for air-conditioned places. When going to the reef, you can bring snorkeling equipment, including water shoes or rubber-soled shoes.
It's better for women to avoid shorts and miniskirts outside tourist resorts.
