Andamooka is a town 600 km north of Adelaide in the Far North of South Australia on the lands of the Kuyani and Kokatha people. Andamooka is famous for high-quality crystal seam opal, opalised fossils, and stargazing. Andamooka recently featured in Vogue Magazine's "Best Country Towns in Australia to visit next" 'For a real taste of the outback, Andamooka has what you need. The town's observatory has your star-gazing needs taken care of, but you can also go 'opal noodling', essentially fossicking for the gems in a town that was once a hub for the opal mining industry.'

  • Andamooka ist ein Ort, der etwa 600 km nördlich von Adelaide im Outback von South Australia liegt. Opal wurde in diesem Gebiet um 1930 gefunden und dadurch entstand eine Stadt von Opalsuchern. Das Andamooka Opal Fields Post Office wurde ab dem 13. Januar 1947 errichtet und 1990 in Andamooka umbenannt. (de)
  • Andamooka – miejscowość w Australii Południowej, znajdująca się około 600 km na północ od Adelaide, kilkanaście kilometrów na zachód od jeziora Torrens. Pierwsza nazwa miejscowości brzmiała "Andamoka" i najprawdopodobniej wywodzi się od pochodzącego z lokalnych języków australijskich słowa "jantamoka" (co znaczy "szerokie" – a dotyczy dużego oczka wodnego, tzw. "waterhole" odkrytego w 1858) lub "jandarimoka" (duży, okrągły obiekt – kometa lub meteoryt). Nie wiadomo dokładnie, kiedy przybyli tam pierwsi europejscy osadnicy, przypuszcza się, że nastąpiło to około 1857. (pl)
