Red Ochre Cove

Extracted from the Wikipedia article Moana, South Australia.

Ochre Point lies between Moana and Maslin Beach. Ochre Cove, or Red Ochre Cove, lies just south of the point. There is a large deposit of red ochre near the cove, which was used as a source by the traditional owners, the Kaurna people. The cove was known as Potartang, also spelt Putatang, or Mulgali (the latter the Ngarrindjeri word for ochre), is a site of significance and part of the Tjilbruke Dreaming Trail.
