Moonta Bay, Yorke Peninsula

Local Attractions

Moonta Heritage Trail 38

This 16km self-guided drive takes you on a grand tour of the town and the adjacent Moonta Mines with over 60 items of interest to see. In the 19th century Moonta Mines were at the centre of copper mining and production. Although time have passed, owners of the properties and residences have done pretty well to restore many buildings back to the previous conditions

Moonta Mines Heritage Walk

If you are interested in a closer tour of the Moonta Mines, then there are three heritage walks throughout the Moonta Mines area which enable you to get a greater appreciation of the copper mining environment and the conditions that early pioneers were faced with.

Moonta Bay Jetty Fishing

Moonta Bay Jetty is a magnet for swimmers during the day, and fishermen at dusk and dawn. Fish and chips on the beach following or preceding a walk along this majestic old jetty is a treat for young and old. While at the end of the day, watching the sun set from the seats alongside the beachfront or on the jetty itself is a treat for all. The majesty of the sun setting over the darkening horizon on a calm evening provide a kaleidoscope of colors and sight for the romantic in all of us.
