Murminnie Beach is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located on the east coast of the Eyre Peninsula overlooking Spencer Gulf about 212 kilometres (132 miles) north-west of the state capital of Adelaide and about 36 kilometres (22 miles) south-west of the municipal seat of Whyalla. [2]

Its boundaries were created in December 2011. The name is derived from Murninnie Beach Shack Site whose site is located within the locality's boundaries. [2] [6] [7] [8]

As of 2015, Murminnie Beach consists of an area of land adjoining the coastline and containing a settlement consisting of several streets of low-rise dwellings. The majority of the locality is zoned for conservation purposes with the view of providing limited built development intended principally for recreational and tourism uses, which has a minimal impact and where provided, complements the environment of the locality. [2] [9]

Murminnie Beach is located within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Giles and the local government area of the City of Whyalla. [2] [3] [4]
