Coober Pedy Views

13 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents2 acres · Coober Pedy, SA
Coober Pedy Views is located on the fringe of Coober Pedy and offers a unique outback camping experience for guests who are more adventurous and prefer privacy and a secure location. New Driveway is completed.... In 2019 I was sitting in my Alfresco Area feeling that the beauty offered in front of my property should be shared to people I thought might appreciate a different aspect to Coober. Since that time I have probably had 600+ guests enjoy what Coober Pedy Views has to offer. Whilst it remains a rustic type setting, with campers needing to be SELF SUFFICIENT (NO PUBLIC AMMENITIES AVAILABLE) I can offer Power (subject to availability) to 6/8 sites. Digging anywhere on the property is forbidden, there are no Opals on CPVs evident when the 3 large garages were dug. Digging softens the ground making it dangerous for avalanches on the embankments and walls especially after rain that creates washouts as you can see on the front embankments and the ugliness makes me sad to see. Our Public Noodling Area is the only place in Coober safe to dig freely. Bookings can be made via Hipcamp.com and more information via WikiCamp.com

Riba's Underground Camping

6 sites · Tents8 acres · Coober Pedy, SA
Our Underground Camping is the first and oldest in the world. The temperature remains constant all year 'round. No matter what the temperature outside, underground remains close to 24 degrees. Summer or Winter, this is a unique and once in a lifetime opportunity. We also offer shaded powered and unshaded unpowered sites for campers and caravans, above ground. Being a few kilometers out of town not only assures a safe place to stay but, with no light pollution, you get a magnificent view of the stars! We have a nightly mine tour, as long as we get a minimum of 5 adults. Anyone purchasing a mine tour gets their unpowered camping for free! Other discounts apply to powered sites as well as our underground rooms. Yes! Along with our underground camping we maintain 5 underground rooms for travelers who just want to crash in bed and avoid setting up a camp. With well established trees we attract a lot of local bird life so popular with 'twitchers'. If reptiles are more your groove then we encourage and hand feed our bearded dragons. We're sure you will love your stay at Riba's.
