Bahrain set to kick off Sea Festival on Nov 7

The Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) will hold the fourth edition of the annual Sea Festival at the Marassi Beach over a period of 10 days, starting from November 7 to 16.
 
First launched in 2016, the Sea Festival celebrates the kingdom’s historical ties to the sea seeking to educate modern-day visitors and tourists on the kingdom’s deeply-rooted past and revive the Kingdom’s sea legacy by showcasing several sea related traditions and activities.
 
BTEA continues its efforts to showcase the Kingdom of Bahrain as the ideal tourism destination for families which offers a unique experience to visitors of all ages. This year’s edition of the Sea Festival will include a number of attractions such as water sports activities, boat rides, traditional music performances, handicrafts and pearl merchants. There will also be plenty of entertainment during the Festival with an amazing on-stage Sea World Performance (Cirque De La Mer) alongside a museum, outdoor cinema and an interactive play area for kids. 
 
The Sea Festival comes in line with the BTEA’s overall strategy aimed at developing and strengthening the tourism sector under the slogan ‘Ours. Yours’, which contributes towards the Kingdom’s economy and 2030 Economic Vision. -TradeArabia News Service
