Yaninee is a small town situated on the Eyre Highway in central Eyre Peninsula, South Australia, 21 kilometres (13 mi) west of Wudinna. At the 2006 census, Yaninee and the surrounding area had a population of 120.[1]
Established in the late 19th century, Yaninee was once a thriving town servicing the local farming community. Some of the original farming families were the Bubners and the Scholzs. The General Store, now closed, was operated by Ray and Grace Wickes in the 1950s. The Lutheran church still stands.
