Wish I Were There - Hata UAE

Hatta Lake

Hatta Pools

Hajar Mountains, Hatta


With the winter season already under way the weather in the UAE is absolutely beautiful and so this time I am thinking about places to go that are a little closer to home that we can actually go visit at any given point. I have been hearing a lot of really great things about Hata which is quite close to us so this is where I am thinking our next local trip will be to.

Hata is a sheikhdom that is a part of the emirate of Dubai. It is located right next to the border with Oman in the Hajar mountains, and is well known for its natural springs. Form what I have been able to see form various tourist websites the landscapes there are quite stunning so I am really looking forward to going there, and then coming back to tell you all about it. In the meantime enjoy these wonderful images.
