Dynamic waterfront destination takes shape

BAHRAIN Marina, one of Bahrain's iconic waterfront destinations along Manama's eastern shoreline, has seen remarkable progress since it broke ground less than three years ago and is reported to be on track for full delivery by the end of this year.

A flagship project by Bahrain Marina Development Company (BMDC), the mixed-use development is situated in a prominent location on Manama Corniche, with unique positioning looking out over the Diplomatic Area to the East and the waters of the Arabian Gulf to the West.

Spanning over 250,000 sq m, the BD200-million ($530 million) development integrates freehold luxury residences, a five-star hotel, a yacht marina, 3,200-sq-m marine club, dining, upscale retail and entertainment options, green spaces and leisure facilities.

The visionary project aims to create a dynamic urban waterfront district and a premier lifestyle destination for Bahrain and the region. It is designed to enhance the corniche area and unlock its full potential as a landmark lifestyle attraction that celebrates Bahrain Marina's heritage, commercial activities, and leisure offer.

International architectural and master-planning firm Benoy was the lead architect for the project, contributing to the urban resort vision.

The construction of Phase One of the project started in August 2023 and has now exceeded 75 per cent completion, with Bahrain Marina Residence (BMR) tower 45 per cent complete.
