Coober Pedy is best known for Opals and we called in to have a look at the town and the famous underground buildings. The weather is so hot in summer that a number of the residents choose to live in houses tunneled into the sides of hills - you can even stay in an underground motel and eat in an underground restaurant.
This is quite a remote location and fresh water is in short supply. Water pumps (that look like petrol bowsers) are located next to the visitor information centre. You can buy water at a very reasonable price (I think 20 cents for about 20 or 30 litres) and these are available 24 hours a day. There is plenty of room to pull in with the caravan and fill up the water tanks before staying at one of the caravan parks in town. NOTE: there are very few sites at caravan parks with water connection points and most of the amenities blocks charge for a shower. Again this is reasonable and will probably cost about 20 cents for a nice hot shower. Start saving coins before arriving in Coober Pedy, or grab some change at reception.
