Hindmarsh Valley Dam

About

The Hindmarsh Valley Dam is a decommissioned off-stream earth-filled embankment dam, located in Hindmarsh Valley, approximately 11 kilometres (7 mi) north of the municipal seat in Victor Harbor, in South Australia. The dam was completed in 1917 and its resultant reservoir, the Hindmarsh Valley Reservoir, supplied potable water for Victor Harbor and environs. The reservoir has been used for recreational purposes since 2019; and for recycled water storage.
