was planning on doing this one tomorrow but saw the list of DNFs. Please replace or archive
Looked under all the big rocks with little rocks around but it seems to be missing. Can you please check on it. Thanks Wells Inc
No luck for me though perhaps I just couldn't search deeply enough due to a nearby fishermen and people on the beach. Nothing obvious though, but lots of possible hiding spots. Nice place to visit in any case, thanks.
And neither did I. Looks like the 153 crew and I were attempting the same caches, with the same results.

I did a lot of contortions and gymnastics but this is one of those caches where luck plays a big part in finding it. It certainly wasn't my lucky day.
This one required some closer looks to find.
TFTC, took nothing, left 10 NZ Cent coin.

[We had to, just had to, come and see the giant swimming pool with it's own island. Kids had a ball and it was a nice bike ride along he coast.]
Great hide, found quickly but to the muggles it must just look like all the other rubish lying around.

This was our first day of Geocaching ever and the second Cache we looked for. Therefore we were very happy when we found it. It was a lot of fun on such a nice day and we decided to look for the next Cache right away.
Thanks for putting the Cache there.

A lovely spring day to be out caching not to mention a great beach cache. The gang loves beach caches. [^] It didn't takes us long to locate this but we stayed for a while to enjoy the atmosphere.

Out touring with the rest of the bees. Stopped for lunch at the nearby picnic spot. Geokids enjoyed climbing all over the tree that has been turned into a playground. TFTC
Out cache finding with TheWonderStuff.
Mutter, mutter, not my most favourite type of hide. But found quickly so all smiles again.
Lovely place.

Great picnic spots all along the coast around here. Found in company of Blue Gonz. TFTC
Found during a relaxed day of caching. Decided that this lovely area had to be enjoyed for as long as possible, so we first enjoyed some fish and chips at one of the many great picnic spots, before moving on the this cache. When we saw the location we were discouraged, but was pleasently supprised when the cache was found in no time
Thanks for leading us to Redcliff!

Thought this one might prove difficult but the coords are spot on and the cache is in very good condition. TFTH
Had a very amusing time watching a friend find her first cache - head down, b*m up. All safe and dry. TNSL. Dropped TB. TFTC.
Quack! Had some lunch at this nice spot & then found the cache with Diesel48. Geomunchkins grabbed the marble & dice & left a ring & the Porpoise TB (it wanted a swim). Thanx =]
Had a nice lunch with geofamily Duck! at this location. A well protected area from the westerly winds that were blowing. After lunch went seearching and found the cache. Left bottle of bubbles and took nothing.

Mr Eventful remembers climbing these cliffs when he was just a boy...and he reckons the cliffs have shrunk!
Very windy today, and there were a handful of kite surfers making the most of it. Great to watch them!
Thanks for this cache - great spot.

What a great spot. Though geo-hound found the waves a tad threatening at high tide.
Took a police badge, left a smiley ball, then hightailed it out of there to check out the Australia Day market nearby.

Found the cache no problem. Cache is in great condition. Nice location. Took travel bug.Will place in cache later this week. TFTC.
Had to Drop of a TB and thought this cache was just the place, allthough I was hoping to take this TB out west it wasn't to be so the next best place is by the sea. TN left TB Matteo and Magnet Game.
Found at 7.00pm. Decided to leave the geo-hound and smaller geo-kiddies with Mr vinthe2nd for this one. Mr vinthe2nd gives up when he sees rocks. This was a nice easy find. Took balloon. Left badge. TFTC.
Surruptitiously claimed the cache in the vicinity of a few fishermen. They were too busy with other things to notice. Thanks for the cache Cookie16.
Found at 0943 after a walk down from above and checking out rocks I decided to search around the largest rock I coud find in the GZ. Shortly afterwards I had it.
Found after a bit of a search. Beautiful today and a few swimmers out enjoying the water. Took travel bug. Thanks Cookie16
Easy find after waiting for the Muggles to clear. We almost attempted this a few weeks ago but changed our minds when we found that it was high tide and a strong north-easterly wind was spraying the rocks. Much nicer today. This is paradise!
Left TB Bonefish "Bruce" who is happier by the sea.

Had fantastic reception on the GPS down to 3 meters. This made finding the cache easy, at zero meters to go I looked down and there it was. What a nice place to sit and fill the log out as well. TFTC
It's always nice up here by the bay
The weather couldn't have been more perfect either for a stroll along the rocks
Yes! that's right.....ROCKS!! [:o]
A strangely easy find though today [^]
I had some help from Bully the bulldozer travel bug
I left the Cache Critter Geocoin and took the Wildlife Muggles geocoin
Edit: No excuse for misspeling

What a beautiful beach. So much quieter than Suttons beach, which is where we normally head to when we come up her. TFTC
I found myself in Redcliffe with a bit of spare time before a late night hockey game.So took a quick detour to nab this gem.I didn't like the look of it at the start but lucky for mr the co-ords were spot on TFTC.
We knew something was wrong when we started wading out in the water.My geoson said "you didn't stuff the co-ordinates again" to which i replied "...maybe"( i hate that)!.Great location and thanks for showing us the area we will be back!
ps the water was cold....ha d.d.dudes

Found this one with Rastas today. We were nervous as we approached GZ. We've had some bad rock experiences in the past, however this one was an easy find! Yay! Co0ords seemed spot on.
Great spot to sit and watch the world go past for a while! No swaps, but picked up Geocoin. Thanks for the cache!

Found by Sunshine Toledo at 11:38am. Once I let the GPSr settle down it didn't take too long to find the cache. I have been to this area several times and it is always a pleasant visit. A friend has just bought a house right along the front here so we might be making a lot more visits to this area. TNLNSL TFTC
No luck with this one... We only had 10 minutes to look & it was no surprise that in that time we could not find it. We will have to return another day for this one.
I always hate rock but with a little luck the GPS settled in the right spot. It is not really a micro.

*FTF* at 3.15pm - after more than a week?!?
Decided I hate rocks, too. Found the coords about 8m out, try 27 12.381 153 07.013.
Just a word of warning - there's a lot of broken glass either on the rocks or in the gaps.
