Wadi Half (Arabic: وادي حلف, romanized: Wādī Ḥalf) is a valley or dry river with ephemeral or intermittent flow, flowing almost exclusively during the rainy season. It is located in northern Oman, in the Omani enclave of Madha (Musandam Governorate); and in the eastern United Arab Emirates, specifically the emirates of Sharjah, and Fujairah.

It is a right tributary of Wadi Madha, to whose hydrographic basin of 106 km2 (41 sq mi) it belongs.
