Far too many times this cache has been muggled or not replaced correctly. we have decided to archive it. if someone else wants this great area please enjoy.
I am found some thing but I am not sure this is right? Because there is no log book or nothing show this one is belong to this activity
Muggle central today. Love the town here first time here and sadly just a quick passing through today. Tftc.
I went out looking for this geocache in the evening it was a amazing night. Unfortunately once we found it there was no log book inside. Needs replacing please.
We spent quite a bit of time searching for this one but unfortunately had to walk away empty handed. Hopefully next time.
Thanks anyways Krafty Charlie

Disappointed. Construction works still underway. Wondering if it's still there?
Great view tho.

Signed back in to the gc website. Backlogging a majority of finds over the last year. Started my own account and it's time to sync it out. To avoid confusion I wont change the date logged. Send me an email (via profile link) or a message in the message centre (also via profile link) if you have any concerns.

Luck was with us. Working on at GZ but cache was found in place and intact. TFTC
First trip to wollongong from nz a lovely little spot really enjoyed myself. Thanks for this cache.
Down in the gong for work, early morning cache walk was in order to start the day. Beautiful view this morning from the lookout but no whales. Bit early in the season but i was hoping. Tftc
After finding the Harbourfront cache, we walked over to the picnic area and quickly found the cache. Plenty of muggles on a Saturday afternoon. We signed the log (which is getting full)and returned the container to its resting place. Thanks for the cache.
As it is holiday time, decided to have a 'geoday' with Halcyon123 and Happy Uke. This time we decided to try for some near my home grounds. Ended up with 7 finds out of 9 attempts, pretty pleased with that effort!!!
Had geokid with us, so thought we were set for some camouflage while hunting this cache - but it was made a little more difficult by part of the area being roped off due to work. Still managed to nonchalantly grab the cache though. TFTC

It was great fun doing this with my family friends, and being adventures. We can't wait to find another one. Thank you!
Not really a DNF as the Splash'N'Dash Aquathon finish line was set up right at GZ so searching around the wires without looking suspicious was out of the question. The official sitting nearby was giving me some strange looks, so I abandoned my attempt until another time. Will have to wait until I return to The Gong fora visit.
I found this to be very difficult as I believe it needs a clue to assist the find for people who don't have a GPS but otherwise great spot! 1/4 for the day
Daddy daughter date before I leave to the USA. Picnic and cache hunting, best way to spend your time
Found after a picnic nearby with a fantastic view. We can't get over how you can park and picnic for free so close to the beach; in Europe you'd pay a fortune to park in a place like this!

TFTC. Found with ivybel. Her gps was mode accurate and led us straight towards it.
Very good. Came back for a second look today. Strangely enough it was easier to see today than yesterday in the bright sunlight!
Two muggles with me who were fascinated. Thanks for something to do on an afternoon drive in W'gong.

#1162 In Wollongong for the weekend from Canberra, again. I was here in my early days of caching, 2nd Feb 2013 to be exact. Couldn't find it. But today I came up with the goods very quickly. Less muggles to than last time too. Nice hide. Thanks Krafty Charlie for bringing me here, again!
While passing through, heading south we picked this cache up. Great views from GZ, spent some time here and had lunch. Took a bit of time but Mrs "T" came up with the goods.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.

Coming out to Wollongong from Canberra for a mini two day trip finding geocaches along the way 
Greatly appreciate the maintenance you did on this one Krafty Charlie It was great to be able to sign a fresh log rather than a full one as lots of micros contain!
Sneaky little hiding spot, coords were in the middle of the park so it was obvious the only place it could be haha.
