Welcome to Coober Pedy
The Coober Pedy Retail Business and Tourism Associa-
tion welcomes you to our unique cosmopolitan town. We
trust your stay will be both memorable and enjoyable and
that the information provided will be of assistance. I have
lived in Coober Pedy since 1970 and have a great admi-
ration for the town and also the people that reside here.
Coober Pedy is unique, the deserts and surrounding lands
are nothing that you will see anywhere else. Our town is
worth more than a one day visit. I invite travelers to stay
an extra day or two, we will show you what there is to do!
