The short answer
When to go to Hatta
The best window is November to March, when daytime temperatures are manageable and the activity season is open; Gulf News reported the Wadi Hub reopening each September for winter. May to August is very hot and makes outdoor sightseeing tiring, though Hatta is cooler than Dubai city. Older travellers should visit early in the day, carry water and avoid hot-season travel.
