About

Dig into history, sparkle with discovery, and go deep beneath Coober Pedy!

Get ready for a hands-on, underground adventure where history meets treasure-hunting fun! At Old Timers Mine, you’ll step into a time capsule from 1916 and uncover the fascinating world of opal mining in South Australia’s outback.

Explore winding tunnels carved by hand, peek into historic underground homes, and see the glimmer of real opals hidden in the rock. Little adventurers will love “noodling” for opal in the pits—who knows what treasures you might uncover? Plus, there’s a dazzling display of opal jewellery and cool fossils to spot along the way!

This isn’t just a museum—it’s an unforgettable journey where you walk (and dig!) in the footsteps of old-time miners. Whether you're hunting for gemstones or just soaking up the outback charm, Old Timers Mine is a sparkling stop for the whole family.

🎫 Start your opal adventure—book your underground discovery today!
