COOBER PEDY
THE OPAL CAPITAL OF THE WORLD
Welcome to the desert town of Coober pedy in the outback of Australia. The name Coober Pedy comes from the Aboriginal words kupa piti,which mean “white man in a hole.” We hope you’ll come visit.
Explorers first found opals in  this area on February 1, 1915. In 1946, an Aboriginal woman named Tottie Bryant dug out a large and valuable opal. After that, a lot of people came to Coober Pedy to mine opals.
During the 1960s, many European immigrants came to work here, and coober Pedy quickly became a large modern town. Today, Coober Pody  is the world’s main source of high-quality opals and a unique tourist spot.
It’s so hot in Coober Pedy that a lot of people live underground! There are many underground homes, as well as underground hotels, museums, opal shops, art galleries, and , of course, opal mines.
We recommend that you visit these places when you come to Coober Pedy:
The Opal Mine and Museum is a unique underground museum about the history of the town. It includes a model underground home and a small opal mine. Some of the world’s finest opals are on display here.
The moon Plain is a large rocky area unlike anywhere else. It looks like the moon – or another planet! It was the set for many movies, including mad max Beyond Thunderdome; The adventures of Priscilla,
Queen of the Desert; and The Red Planet. It is about 15 kilometres northeast of Coober Pedy.
