To mark the Chinese New Year, Bahrain Rowing Centre is hosting its first dragon boat races. Boats are crewed by teams of 12 who row to the beat of a big drum. If you’ve not seen dragon boating, the boats look a bit like giant canoes or even Viking longboats, with dragon heads at the bow and tails at the stern. This sport looks like great fun, and it is. But it’s also hard work and very good for you. Registration is currently open for teams of 12 – cost BD120 – and once registered you train for free. Call 36 678-922.
