Amwaj Islands launches Bahrain's newest marina

Amwaj Marina will be the waterway access to Amwaj Islands and the Kingdom's newest marina.

The circular 60,000 square meter marina is located on the western seafront of Amwaj Islands and will be operational from today. It will have the capacity to rent out 145 berths and will be able to host up to four super yachts in deepwater berths. It will aim to offer the highest marina standards in the region.

Martin Kay, CEO of Amwaj Islands, said:

"This development is considered to be one of the most important developments within Amwaj Islands. It will be the seafront entrance to Amwaj Islands and another unique attraction in itself. Boat owners will be able to moor in the marina and spend the day taking in a variety of other attractions located within a short distance of the marina, including the theme park, the retail centre, hotels, the beaches and Amwaj Beach Club - taken together, some of the finest recreation facilities in Bahrain!"

"Amwaj Marina will be the destination marina for boat owners across Bahrain because of its efficient and convenient services designed to provide a smooth, trouble-free marina experience. It will also boast a host of entertainment services for the whole family including water sports, sailing lessons, beach club facilities, and in due course it will feature cafes, and swimming facilities," said Peter Jennings, Marina Manager of Amwaj Islands.

Amwaj Marina is a five star facility that upholds the highest marina standards in the region with advanced security systems, the latest equipment, and efficient services.
Additionally, the marina will host boating activities and lessons through the Sail Laser Academy, and in the future, it will offer a variety of water sports including windsurfing, kayaking and pedalo.

"We are excited to be launching the 60,000 square meter marina after almost two years of planning and development to make way not only for a world class marina, but a marina that will serve as the waterway to Amwaj Islands, providing boat owners with access to attractions and residential communities by way of the sea. This will make for a unique experience, not only for the residents of Amwaj, but also for visitors to the Islands," said Martin Kay, CEO of Amwaj Islands.
