When to go to Bahrain?
Bahrain has an arid climate, typical of countries in the Persian gulf, that can be divided into two main seasons : a mild winter and a particularly hot summer. During the year, the amount of sunshine remains consistent and rainfall is rare, even in winter. To get the most out of a trip to Bahrain , it is important to know the best times to stay there.
Winter is particularly mild. It extends from October to April, even if the months running from December to February are the coolest, with maximum temperatures between 20° et 23° C and minimum temperatures which can drop to 14°C. With this cooler atmosphere, these three months are the most widely recommended for visiting the country. If you wish, however, to get the most out of the beaches, March, April, May, October and November remain the most appropriate months for swimming. Indeed, the daytime temperatures are higher, from a maximum of 25°C in March to 34°C in May, while the water temperature at 20°C in March can climb up to 30°C in the month of October.
We advise against the period running from June to September, which represents summer. During these few months, temperatures can in fact reach 39°C during the day without ever dropping below 29°C at night. The heat is hard to tolerate, the air is stifling, sometimes even suffocating with the moisture which comes from the sea.
Bahrain is a destination which is worth the journey if one takes care to really choose the right time to go. The months from June to September are not recommended because of the extreme heat, but the rest of the year remains enjoyable depending on what you wish to do : you can visit glamorous places, museums, or even engage in the multiple water-based activities on offer in the country.
