North Moonta is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located at the northern end of the Yorke Peninsula on the north side of the town of Moonta.[2]

North Moonta was originally a private subdivision. The boundaries of the modern locality were established in January 1999. On 14 August 2014, it received additional territory from Warburto and Cross Roads as part of a boundary realignment of the local area.[5]

The south end of the locality includes a residential-zoned area to the west of the main Moonta-Wallaroo Road, bounded by Haylock Road, and an industrial-zoned area to the east of the main road. It also includes a "rural living" area to the west of the residential area, bounded by Haylock Road, Muddy Lane and Binney Road. The remaining two-thirds of the locality is zoned for primary production.[2]

It includes the former Moonta Hospital in Majors Road, which closed in December 2013.[6][7] The former hospital operators, Moonta Health & Aged Care Services, continue to operate the adjacent Parkview Aged Hostel.[8]

The Moonta Lifestyle Village in Barbary Court and the Copper Coast Lifestyle Village in James Place are also located at North Moonta.[9]

North Moonta is located within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Goyder and the local government area of the District Council of the Copper Coast.[4][3][5]
