Located on the southern tip of Muharraq Island, Bu Maher Fort (also known as Qal’at Bu Mahir) serves as the gateway to Bahrain’s pearling history. Originally constructed in 1840 on the foundations of a 16th-century Portuguese fortification, it played a vital role in protecting the pearling fleet and the city\\\'s freshwater supply. Today, the fort is a UNESCO World Heritage site and acts as the official starting point of the Bahrain Pearling Path. Visitors can access the site via a short, scenic boat ride from the Bahrain National Museum, where a dedicated visitor center offers insights into the maritime traditions that once drove the nation\\\'s economy
