Tailem Bend, Administrative center in Coorong District Council, Australia
Tailem Bend stands on the banks of the Murray River, positioned 85 kilometers southeast of Adelaide at an elevation of 22 meters.
The settlement emerged from a railway camp called Pine Camp in 1884, receiving its official proclamation as Tailem Bend in 1887.
The name originates from the Ngarrindjeri word thelim, referring to the sharp curve the Murray River forms at this location.
The town functions as a transportation hub where multiple highways intersect, with a ferry service crossing the Murray River to connect with Jervois.
The Bend Motorsport Park hosts national racing events, while Old Tailem Town Pioneer Village preserves 110 historical buildings from 1920 to 1960.
