Cache reported as damaged by multiple catchers. Plenty of other caches have since been placed to bring people to this beach so I will let this one go. Will collect container.
Replaced sodden logbook with new log inside plastic bag & in a mint tin, hopefully this lasts the Summer.
Nice and easy find.
Container is already broken & logbook totally wet.
In urgent need of maintenance!

Headed up North with Jag50 and Merlot58 to stay in Pahi for the long weekend. On the third day we headed out to the Waipu area. It was a nice walk along the dunes to GZ, where there were a few hint items, but I finally located the cache.
I was staying in Pahi with the Jags and Aiden29 for Easter so plans were made to collect as many caches as we could while we were up north. Lots of hint items here but didn't take too long to find
We decided to get way for Easter and stay in Pahi with Merlot58 and Aiden29. Did not take too long to find this one.
What a beautiful beach! If we’d known we’d have brought our togs on this lovely day. TFTC
We come 36 hour from Finland to NZ. Now we are travelling by camperwan and our first night we spent Uretiti. TFTC. I drop TB
We were camping at the DOC site here by the beach for one night, so took an evening stroll up the beach to find a few local caches. What a gorgeous beach it was too. This cache is in sight of the footpath to a car park across the dunes, so we waited for a gap in muggle pedestrians before retrieving and replacing the cache. There were no trackables in the cache. SL. TFTC.
Found during our holiday to New Zealand together with GeoFinn. Touring in a campervan through this amazing country; second time here, now with our son. 5 weeks was over in a blink; already plans for a third time.
Travelling, geocaching, hiking, kayakking, swimming, mountains, lakes, geyers, beaches; it was amazing. CO's thanks for your cache, it made our trips even more fun.

Great early morning find to keep kids from waking the whole campground thanks
No perfect weather this labour weekend. Many little dune pines but we found the right one a bit off the GPS location. No trackable.
No pen . Sorry again . Nice walk up the beach though . Heading to the doc site for some rest . Thanks for the cache
Found on an expedition to find a few along this stretch while staying in the DOC camp. Left "spanner in the works" travel bug here too hopefully wander the country and or the world.
Found it. My 121st find and 2nd of the day. First looked in the wrong dune pine then found the right one and found quickly, no TBs in this one. TFTC
This is a truly beautiful beach! Thank you!
Note: The log book is mouldering away.

Brilliant day for a walk on the beach. Called in here late in the day to look for the 5 caches. This was the first to look for and was a quick find with the good clue. TFTC
The GPS was spinning around and so was I. So it took a while to find this cache.
Had a short stop here on our way to the Bay of Islands. Lovely little beach. The logbook ist soaking wet.

During our Sabbatical trip we visited Uretiti as well and found this one beside our evening walk along the beach today. It was an easy grab and log 
Many thanks for hiding, moin moin, and best regards sends Dr. Dose...

Traveling together during our Sabbatical, I've found this one in team work with Dr. Dose and have shared the same nice experience as he explained.
Thanks for it and all the best!

Found on a windy Sunday. All ok except some bubble mixture has leaked. XNSL. Thanks, CBE from Norfolk, UK
Today we left Mangawhai towards Whangarei. Always time to find a few caches along the way
Thanks for placing this cache MrRUSH742
GrimRaider and I decided to pull in to check out the beach, the views and the caches. Wow, beautiful scenery here. Cache found in good condition without much trouble. TFTC 
A nice walk along the beach after lunch. Easy quick find no trackable inside . TFTC
this was the second cache we could find in the morning, tftc and greetings from germany.
Took the chance to deposit "Kermit on the run" - who is a somewhat large specimen of a frog and now takes up most of his new dwelling place. So somebody better take care of him soon; he wants to return to Australia. Thanks for the adequately sized box; everything else in the vicinity is size S!
Found it on our awesome trip to NZ.
Thanks for the cache and greetings from Germany. =]

Found it nice and dry. Forgot my pen so you will have to take my word for this one.
Great place to put a travel bug and the owner to see this part of New Zealand from USA
Up early this morning with HKCB for a last caching roadtrip for the year and a chance to complete a number of missions that we had set ourselves.
Left Hamilton at 2am (it was about to be quite a long day), the day was at a much more reasonable hour by now
This was our twelvth cache of the day and having met up with Alpenmilch80 earlier, having refreshed up on Coffee it was time head north and see what there was to see.
A very nice walk along the coastal paths to GZ and a quick find once we got to GZ, At this point the shower of rain that had passed over cleared fro the remainder of the day.
Another quick find in the north, the container was doing its job admirably.
Thanks for the placement, THanks for the cache

A little while ago an idea was thrown about to head north for a final caching roadtrip for the year. So along with C&D a rough plan was formed with a certain few caches, a confluence point visit, an event to attend, and the rest of the plan was to be made up as we went along. So with a 2am start Saturday morning in Hamilton it was going to be a long weekend. Also Alpenmilch80 had decided to join in on the fun as well.
After a refuel of coffee in Wellsford we continued north to this series of caches. I've passed these a few times but never had enough time to stop of to find them. No issues locating once at GZ.

GPS had me searching the wrong prickle bush and as a result I received vastly more prickles than I otherwise should have...
All well and good once the radius was increased and a smiley for me. No TB here though...
Amazing views and cool flowers.

On our twentyforth day in New Zealand we traveled from Coromandel to Paihia. It was a very nice drive along the coast.
A most welcome stop during the long trip and nice that we could go for three caches.
First we enjoyed the lovely beach. Again a place which we for sure wouldn't have seen without a cache. For this we leave a fav point. The box itself was quickly found thanks to the hint.
TFTC and greetings from Switzerland

On my drive to Whananaki from Hamilton I stopped off here, assuming it would be quiet and muggle free and I was right! An amazing spot with fantastic views of the heads. Also stopped at the bathroom... terrible idea!
Nice quick find by the trainees

Dodged the huge potholes and parked fairly close. A nice little stroll among the dunes for an easy find. I always love the view from this beach. Thanks for the cache
Nice quick stop by after circling the area a couple of times.
Nice cache and a great day for the beach. Though only passing through from the Mangawhai Heads to Hub.
Picked up TB
