No
Hatta is Dubai's only exclave and I know of no
other.
I've heard of some Dubai territory called Hadjarain (or possibly
Najarain), could this be the same as Hatta?
And is Hatta the same as Jebel Hatta?
Madha is a wholly Omani enclave within UAE. But the shape of Madha
shown in my
posted map is incorrect.
As with other more 'correct'
maps, the NE corner of Madha is closest
to the Khorfakkan-Fujairah road-
and this was verified by my
photographs where you can see the border post
just approx 10m from
the road.
If I understand it right, Khor Fakkan is in the Emirate of Sharjah, and
in maps I've seen the boundary between Sharjah (Khor Fakkan area) and Emirate of
Fujeirah is between the Madha exclave and Indian Ocean. Did you see any
bordermarks at this boundary? (Not the Madha exclave!)
