There aren't really any 'must see' attractions in Bahrain IMHO, but there's plenty to see and do, depending on your preferences.

It's a compact, friendly and relatively free and relaxed place, by ME standards.

Not for the city area (Manama). The entire country is less than 300 sq mi ! Possibly if you wanted to go to see the Tree of Life.
Less than almost nil
KSA doesn't issue tourist visas, so unless you know someone who could invite/sponsor, you're out of luck.
The causeway is impressive from an engineering perspective, but the other end (Dammam, Khobar, etc) is pretty unremarkable.
You'll find plenty of Saudis to talk to in the bars in Bahrain

You need a sponsor over to Saudi. But, only interesting if you have a local who can safely take you through the markets of Khobar, etc.
