G-Day we found this cache a long time ago as steve & ra and are a updating as a team thanks Black Flag.
Went to check on this one. Yep, sadly it appears to have been washed away on a king tide, even though it survived the recent cyclone. Who knows, it might wash up somewhere in the future!
Back to Basics seems to be a no go. GZ has flotsam and jetsam even past where the sign is, and there's at least a metre's worth of sand erosion as well. The few trees about have well exposed root systems, assuming that's about where the cache was. We had a good ferret around, but no luck, even with 12 of 12 satellites available. 
Now don't go there and prove us wrong! 
It was a lovely walk up the beach with the beaglies though on our usual route, just a bit further than usual

How wonderful a regular run of the mill cache, no mongrel nanos, if ever I find the bloke who brought them to Darwin.
Good spot and on the way back Mrs Beagle got to see a male yoga practitioner bending and stretching in the morning sunrise, well the sign did say nudist beach I suppose.
Good spot good cache.

Rated: for Overall Experience
Found it just on dark and I also forgot the aeroguard (slap slap slap) so wrote a very quick log and dropped off a geocoin. TFTC
A nice evening stroll/mad dash, (although I'm still nursing blisters). Left a Neopet, (an Uni I think, for the geo-kids who may know/care), thanks for the cache, it's a nice spot for a stroll, when one keeps their eyes forward.
Found by all of the gibbo003 team and TrewCrew for a FTF on a late afternoon sprint to the cache. Finished a 12 hour shift and thought it would be a great idea to go for a long hike. We found the cache at 19:15 signed the log in the dark and took the coin. TrewCrew left a fluffy thing. Thanks NTSTROM for the nice and easy find not so sure about the long walk.
