Since the late 1800's fossickers have been finding sapphires in the fields surrounding the town and now visitors can also try their luck. The region is
home to one of the richest sapphire fields in the southern hemisphere.
Sapphire lives up to its name with a host of gem cutters, jewellers and
fossicking parks located here. Other gems include the RSL, thrift
shop, cafes,
general store, service station and a range of accommodation providers.
Join a half day or full day tour to learn more about the town's opulent history and then go searching for treasure at '
Graves Hill' or 'Big Bessie'. If your
fossicking doesn't pay off, you can always pick up a sapphire of your own in one of the gift shops.
If you love a photo opportunity, then the 'Big Ring', 'Big Spanner' as
well as the 'Big Pick, Shovel and Sieve' can all be found in and around Sapphire.
