Island Style Living

Durrat Al Bahrain Travel Blog › entry 3 of 6 › view all entries

This is definately a work in progress. Realising that I've been in Bahrain for over a year now, working. Thought that it was about time to create some sort of blog on experiences here. Opinions expressed here are not as a traveller, but as someone who while has been working here has seen this place in a different light that tourists would.

Island Style Living

Durrat Al Bahrain. One of the first projects my company did when they first started in Bahrain. I unfortunately had no involvement with these Islands. I started after they finished them. Looking at the intricute shapes I wish that I had been involved. This place is advertised in the media as "Island Style Living", well I can only imagine what it is going to be like when it is completely finished. A paradise on a desert island. Most of the Housed or Villas are finished already, many celebraties like Jenson Button and Michael Jackson have already brought their own pieces of paradise here. The international hotel and the rest of the buildings are still under construction.

We build what is called rock bank around the island to prevent it washing away, the only areas that we leave are the certain areas where we specifically build a beach. Two of the photos here show this example of a rock bank.
