Hatta Dam, Water reservoir in Hatta region, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
The artificial lake formed by Hatta Dam reflects the Hajar Mountains, creating a water surface that extends across the desert landscape.
The construction of Hatta Dam in the late 1990s established a crucial water management system for agricultural development in the Dubai emirate.
The dam area functions as a gathering point where local residents participate in outdoor activities while maintaining traditional connections to the land.
Visitors can access kayaking facilities, designated picnic spots, and parking areas from sunrise to sunset throughout the entire year.
The dam supports a hydroelectric power station that generates electricity during peak demand periods through water storage and release systems.
