Red Earth Opal Mine Tour

White Cliffs, New South Wales

Since the 1890s, people have flocked to White Cliffs in the hope of finding their fortune. With Red Earth, you can go more than 13.5m beneath the ground into a working opal mine within the historic diggings. See how miners are still searching for these glittering gems using modern equipment. You’ll even have a chance to dig at the mine face yourself and may be lucky enough to discover a piece of opal. Tours depart from the Red Earth Opal Gallery and Coffee House at 3pm.
