Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers an unparalleled view of the iconic King Fahd Causeway, the Manama skyline, and the vibrant Al Khobar coastline during this short hop.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏙️

Manama Skyline

Aerial view of the Bahrain World Trade Center and Financial Harbour towers immediately after takeoff.

🌉

King Fahd Causeway

The massive 25-kilometer bridge system connecting Bahrain to Saudi Arabia is best viewed from this side.

🏖️

Al Khobar Corniche

Detailed views of the Saudi coastal parks, high-rise buildings, and the Khobar Water Tower.

🏛️

Ithra Landmark

The unique pebble-shaped architecture of the King Abdulaziz Center for World Culture visible near Dhahran.

Since the flight is extremely short (under 45 mins), be ready with your camera immediately after takeoff. Sit in front of the wing for an unobstructed view of the Causeway. Night flights offer a spectacular 'string of pearls' effect as the bridge lights illuminate the sea.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🏝️

Amwaj Islands

Sprawling man-made luxury islands and lagoons visible north of Muharraq during the initial climb.

🛶

Tarout Island

One of the oldest inhabited sites in the region, featuring a historic castle and unique circular urban layout.

🚢

King Abdulaziz Port

Massive shipping containers and industrial maritime activity at the primary gateway to the Eastern Province.

Morning flights provide the best natural lighting for the turquoise waters of the Persian Gulf. Look for the distinct color changes in the shallows which indicate coral reefs and sandbars. On the final approach to DMM, watch for the vast desert expanse stretching toward the horizon.
