Moolap

Moolap, 5 km south-east of Geelong, is a locality which has agricultural and industrial uses and low density residential development. Its postcode area includes Point Henry, Geelong's first place for maritime cargo movements, but later the site of the Alcoa aluminium refinery (closed in 2014 leaving a contaminated site) and the Cheetham salt harvesting works.

Moolap is derived from an Aboriginal word for Point Henry, moo-laa, thought to mean men gathering to go fishing.
