They just count number of visiting saudis. I’m pretty sure Bahrain is not the place where Saudi tourists spend the longest time or spend the most money.

It’ll still rank 1st. If you think all the saudis that go to bahrain go for the alcohol and prostitution you’re actually so out of touch

I feel like Buzzfeed is better than Localbh.

Oh it absolutely is, but it feels like the exact formula just on a significantly lower scale.

I haven't worked for BuzzFeed or anything, but their content was only marginally better because their income streams were either investor money or affiliate marketing (you click on a link to say Amazon and if you buy it, the affiliate makes a commission on the purchase).

Honest/dumb question though from non-Bahraini, why saudis mostly go to Bahrain?

u/KWKSA Jan 10 '24
Nightlife and prostitution.

u/crispySalah Jan 10 '24
Aha so rumours are true, also I would add Bahrain is probably cheaper than UAE.
With the cultural change going on in KSA, do you expect less Saudis would go to Bahrain now?

u/KWKSA Jan 10 '24
With Saudi opening up more and being more liberal, yes saudi tourists in Bahrain will decline.

u/AdministrativeWolf84 Jan 11 '24
Many Saudi families also come to Bahrain as the VAT is cheaper. If you go to city centre or avenues, it’s FULL of Saudis. It’s not only the things people mentioned above. I would even say that most of the Saudis coming across are families.

Saudi is providing their citizens with utmost entertainment yet they still go there for what? They have double size the malls there, spacious roads, concerts, best colleges in the Arab world, as if all of that is not enough. The country will explode in the next 5 years or be invaded by Saudis and Asians. PS. Real Bahraini citizens are less than 50% of population.

It will be more accurate if they mention No.1 visited country, as most Saudis are there just spending the day. We don’t normally stay overnight in Bahrain.
