What a great hide in a lovely location. Dropped it while trying to retrieve it but fortunately there were no muggles and my arms were long enough to reach - Phew! TFTC
Super nice place !Many thanks for hiding it and best regards from Germany Team hsvflensOut: CoinIn: Coin-Superschner Ort !Vielen Dank frs Verstecken und viele Gre aus Deutschland Team hsvflensOut: CoinIn: Coin
What a beautiful spot ! Alot of people around so we had to be real careful but was worth waiting for so we could enjoy the view. No trackable in this cache but we did drop one in to travel the world.
We called in here early in the morning so it was pretty quiet. Took me a little while to locate the sneaky cache. Just as I was about to return it some muggles approached, so in my rush I dropped it. Oops! My arms werent long enough so mugglepartner had to be commandeered to contribute to the game. Luckily got it back in place without the muggles noticing luckily they were looking at the view.
This area has been totally redeveloped since our last visit to the area and is a great place to visit. There was a muggle reading on the landing so we spent quite a while taking in the surrounds as we scouted the area before Mrs SKI located the cache. A well-constructed hide.The activity today was a leisurely drive south down the coast exploring and then across to Mogo at the highway before heading back to our camp.We visited some lovely areas with fantastic coastal views and walked some coastal paths. A bonus was the caches we found along our way on an overcast but lovely day.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache J+J.au.**SKI Pair****
Wow, wow, wow, it was such a beautiful view. I loved it, and the lovely breeze was cool. Also, fantastic cache, a good one.TFTC absolutely give fav pt from me.
Worth a trip just for the view even without the find. But I probably wouldnt have moseyd out here without the lure. Cache well-placed no gymnastics around the edge of the platform needed thanks for the cache and your consideration J+J.au
Wow, what an amazing spot. Thanks for placing a cache here! Adding to the well deserved fav points.
Awesome view had the place to ourselves and soaked it up. Thanks for bringing us here. Tftc
Our last couple for the day heading home along beach road, picking up these ones.Arrived at GZ and there was the usual have a chatters loitering around GZ. As they moved away to look at what they should be here for , we pounced and retrieved the container from the spot. Signed and quickly returned like the professional Ninja Cacher, before they realised what had happened. They continued their conversation as if nothing had just happened. Those muggles.Total Caches Found 16336TFTC J+J.au
Im currently staying in Batemans bay for a week away and decided to do a few geocaches in the area. What a beautiful area! A few muggles were at GZ when I arrived, but they soon left and I soon had the cache in hand. I signed the log and have taken the travel bug with me and will continue its journey down to Melbourne with me. Whilst at GZ I spotted some dolphins cruising in the water too!
Replaced the log-Book and left a trackable we brought back from Queensland that wants to travel.
Quick find thanks to previous logs. Beautiful spot. Pencil still in cache but log full. I managed to squeeze my log in. Tftc
Ms Atalanta and I are having a few days away on the south coast of NSW - ie south of Sydney.We drove to Batemans bay yesterday and set out early today to do some bushwalking and caching.MS Atalanta put her hand on the container early in the search, but thought NO. Turns out she was wrong.TFTC
Full time Nomads, travelling around Australia since 2014. Our first visit to ACT in that time.Out grabbing a few more smilies between the showers today. TFTC J+J.au
#22153 @1410A weekend at the coast for some orienteering at Broulee. After today's event, my son and I visited a few caches between Broulee and Batemans Bay. This one took a while to locate with some muggles also enjoying the spot. Nicely hidden. TFTC.
Clever container and great hide. Easy find with yummy az eats Tftc and thanks for taking us to this beautiful look out ??
Great camouflage!Cache is around the lookout area, not at the GZ in the bush.Tftc
Heading north to Sydney we made a stop at Batemans Bay. Nice lookout and easy find. TFTC
Coast trip day 1. After a great weekend around Moruya a few weeks ago, I had noted heaps of caches that I have not managed to visit yet. Not to mention a few DNFs that look like they might be find able now. I packed overnight stuff into the car and headed out. After one stop along the way, I reached Moruya airport for my first few walks. Hot and sunny out in the open, but nice in the shady walkways. I worked my way north along the coast. There some very dramatic coastal caches and I finished with a LAB set around Batemans bay before dinner and heading off to my camp, where I was just done eating when it started to rain. A long wet night.Why is there always a parade of people, just as you work out where the cache is. I did some reading, took a few images and swooped in when the third group moved on. This headland had been developed a great deal since I was last out here.Thanks for the cache J+J.au45376.16 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2017 November Fte Ghede A#368**Albida**
And this is why geocaching is so good for you!A top spot to visit, with top views and a top hide, out of sight, sort of, but only to muggles. Even with muggles checking out the ocean and island views, we managed to stealthily do the deeds. Have another well-deserved FP. TFTC
#10200 (5 of 20 today - including 5 Adventure Labs)Headed down to Bateman's Bay, and environs, in the Geowife's Mugglemobile for today's event at Wasp Head. It was a long day, starting the drive down before 8am and not getting home until 11pm - utilising a long stop at the Gong on the way home to make sure I stayed awake.Having a few hours "to spare" before the event, I took the opportunity to grab a number of caches around Bateman's Bay. By the end of the day I had 20, including five ALs by the water. That included, of course *Earthcache 1* at Wasp Head, which was the focus of the day - Happy 20th Anniversary.###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###Parked close and walked to GZ. Quite a few muggles about, except at GZ where I quickly located the hide.Completed signing duties and replaced, just before a muggle finally arrived to take in the great view.SLTNLNTFTC
Had too out wait several lots of muggles before I could search for the cache . No wonder its so busy with great views. A clever camoed cache too . Thanks for the cache . Fav point for the views and creativity tnln replaced as found sl
Saw this one relatively near by and made the walk up to the hill. Checked spoiler and used camera to locate but couldnt find it.Thankfully only 1 muggle family near by so I lay down to look and there I spotted it. No pen but here is a picture, which doesnt show the exact cache location. TFTC!!
Awesomely made construction. Not too busy with a bit of humidity and rain around. TFTC
Tough find but nice camouflage! Would not have found this lookout point otherwise so TFTC!
Quick find during peak muggle season, thankfully we managed to get here at a quieter time!
Tricky little find, thankfully boothy was able to get down low and go go go. tftc
Couple of Finnish vanlifers traveling around this beautiful coast of Australia with Matilda the campervan. Stopping here and there to enjoy life without any plans.Mntti1 and I started our travels couple of weeks ago. After getting everything set up and visiting some friends, we began making our way south from Sydney. Stopped here for nice views and some caching. Lovely lookout and nice cache, thank you!
Great camo, was surprised how quickly we found it. TFTC and for bringing us to the fantastic lookout
First of a number of finds for todays trip with Turtle284. A great gone to start with too, great views and great cache. Thanks for the fun
#4466 With my phone not being overly cooperative for a positive lock on the hiding spot, Injuryman was the one who got his hands on the container.Attended to logging and headed off just in time, passing some walkers on our way out.Cheers J&J. The first of a number of your hides found today.
What a nice place. I went there early in the morning. I met no people and saw a lot of birds. Thank you for showing this area and greetings from Germany
J+j .AU thanks for the cache. Love the hiding spot. Great views here. Down from GC with our from Canberra.
Found with LittleBoss2 as we cruise into BB for another day of caching. Had to wait a while before searching, so we enjoyed the view. Thanks again J&J. auVery clever
Another day out caching with Bogonghazy. Clever hide. Thanks for placing the geocache
Visiting from NZ and enjoying a trip through the Blue Mountains. Great scenery and some quaint towns along the way.This one of a few caches we found heading towards Mollymook.TFTC
what an awesome cache. Thankfully we had the place to ourselves and could have a good look about. we took a trackable key with us to help it on its way. Fantastic camo
Staying in Batemans Bay tonight, arrived about lunch time in the heat of the day. Had a bit of a rest and then decided some caching fun was in order. The heat of the day (29degrees) has abated somewhat. A lovely area to explore and wander through. A decent sized cache, so we were able to swap TB’s. No muggles around when we were at GZ, but we did meet one as we walked back to the GeoCruiser. SL at 4.40pm #10,338 TFTC J+J.au
Amazing view and great hiding place. Thanks for bringing us here.

A well constructed hide, which I luckily found in the first place I looked but didn't immediately recognise it.
Fabulous location.
Thanks J+J.au

The medium one’s turn for a find! Good job there were no muggles around when it was retrieved, the tricky part was getting it back in an inconspicuous manner. The muggles arrived pretty quickly! So we took the opportunity to have a sit down and admire the view.
TFTC - this was a great hide

Such a lovely place - the walkways, structures and gardens are fantastic. Tricky find and one that we all loved! Definitely worth a favourite point.
Had to wait for heaps of muggles, nearly didnt get it, but fav point from me.TFTC.
Took some time waiting for people to wonder off... But left a couple of trackables... Have a wonderful time... Seen dolphins
Great walkway and observation point .
Plenty of birds on the rocks in the bay .
Many thanks for the clever hide .

It was nanton34 ‘s birthday and he begrudgingly decided Batemans Bay to be our day’s activity. After a nice fish and chip lunch we then went the tourist route, viewing the views such as this amazing newly renovated location. tftc
Took a little bit to find, until I read through the comments to learn it had been moved slightly. but great location, and beautiful spot!
Sadly 'Geotrupe' has sircome to the upgrading of the lookout, so I have replaced the cache and it is now attached via magnet to the new structure. I have also put a spoiler photo on the page for further help.

Had a good look around with no luck. Given hadn’t been found for a while didn’t spend significant time looking
Currently the site is under construction. We had a sneaky look and the marked location seems to be under half a ton of concrete. May still be there but we didn’t look for very long.
Coords were a bit out for me but soon located after looking further afield. Once located I managed to use to ToTTs to get the cache out but it wasn't easy. Eventually signed the logbook. Favourite for the construction and I liked the camouflague. Also I really liked the spot. TFTC J+J.au!
P.S The 'ToTTs' I used were actually just two small sticks didn't bring anything with me.

Found with @chittlesss today! We searched at lunch time but had the wrong idea so could not find it. However after a helpful message from the owner (thank you!) we were able to come back and find the cache pretty quickly! Does pay to do your research haha
TFTC!
