About Mosquito Hill
Mosquito Hill is a small rural locality in South Australia, situated on the Fleurieu Peninsula approximately 70 kilometres south of Adelaide in the Currency Creek and Lake Alexandrina region. Covering 38.7 square kilometres, it had a population of 137 residents at the 2021 Census across 48 dwellings — a lightly settled community surrounded by farmland, wetlands, and the scenic landscapes of the lower Murray Mouth area. It falls within the federal electorate of Mayo and the state electorate of Finniss.
The surrounding region is renowned for its natural beauty, with Lake Alexandrina, the Coorong, and the Murray Mouth nearby, as well as the vineyards and cellar doors of Currency Creek and Langhorne Creek wine regions. Goolwa, one of South Australia's most historically significant river towns, is the closest major service centre and offers shops, schools, cafes, and access to the Encounter Bay coastline. Mosquito Hill appeals to those seeking a semi-rural lifestyle within easy reach of both wine country and the rugged coastal scenery of the lower Fleurieu Peninsula.
Mosquito Hill falls under postcode 5214 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Finniss electorate.
