Overview Moama is a town belonging to the Riviera district of New South Wales, Australia. It is encompassed within the Murray River Council local government area. It is situated 638 km from Sydney and 3 km from Echuca (a town in Victoria). The latter is referred to as Moama’s twin because the two towns are located opposite each other from the banks of the Murray River. They are connected via a bridge.
Living in Moama Moama is the sister suburb of Echuca, and it is located on the northern side of the Murray River. The river serves as the border of the states of New South Wales and Victoria. Moama is a residential town that sees its local population swell during the holiday, especially the water ski race season (typically held in February). It has plenty of schools, a police station, a fire station, and its ambulance services. The town has recently experienced a surge in population since many Melbournians move to this suburb to escape from the city life. The liberal gambling laws in the state have caused the entertainment venues to bring in more tourists.
