On a business trip to NZ, but always make time for some caches. This was my first this time around - thanks for the fun and the hunt - Happy Birthday to CachingSpouse. Shipwrecked indeed - treasure found and moniker squiggled.
Himself was on a cycling reccy out this way so treated myself to a bit of light caching after a yummy lunch. TFTC. Cool hide.
First time exploring the area and enjoying the walk on the quiet beach. Quick find and off to the next one
we were in the area primarily chasing an ad lab point, but it's so lovely here that we decided to spend a bit of time exploring the area and picking up some trads as well.We timed things well (fluked it), and came here at low tide. A quick find here.Thanks for putting it here
In Beachlands/Maraetai with rattll this weekend, an area neither of us have ever cached before (and that's a rare thing in the NI!)A quick find, although tucked away out of sight. All well in the cache. Picked up a TB. Signed, and returned as found. Tftc!
Three of us spent 15 minutes searching but no luck. We'll try again other day.
Oops! Ignore the previous DNF, posted to the wrong cache. Quick find during a walk along the beach. Great spot! TFTC
DNF. Looked at previous logs for more information, but it appears that the cache may be missing. With LittleClan.
Great walk along the beach here this morning. A few passing showers, but nothing too heavy. I enjoyed myself here. TFTC
This is pretty cool. Love the idea. Log sheet way to wet. Took a pic of the log sheet. Fav added. Tftc.
Up this way again with ABCDF4
Decided to do the beach walk as it was Low tide
Cool Container thanks

Cool Container thanks
getting around to logging some of my finds, i found this a while ago with my mum Raven eyes, so the dates will be wrong, TFTC, cool camo
What a great hide, thank you! We decided to brave the storms and get the kiddos outside!
Family were all busy on Christmas Day so decided to treat myself to a day caching. Called here an hour ago but after consideration I decided to attempt this walk even though the tide was still high. Walking shoes off and jandals on. No trouble crossing the 1st part. Nice beach walk to 1st cache. This was quickly located and signed. Then it was back to the beach. Thank you for the placement.
Thanks for the cool, appropriately named hide - in a beautiful location. Start of our geocaching walk along the beach
Nice area we have never been to before. Lovely afternoon to spend the Queens Memorial Day. TFTC, the kids loved it
We came down here while it was low tide to search for these caches. Starting off with a nice and easy find here, log all good and signed, TFTC.
Today dawned nice and sunny, so we decided to head across town to Pineharbour for a morning low tide stroll. We made our way along the shore and soon reached the site of this fabled shipwreck. We had a look around and quickly spotted an artifact from the wreck. Thanks.

We hadn't planned to go along this way but it was a lovely day for a walk along the beach, so we thought we would grab a couple of caches before heading back to the van. This was nicely concealed and we managed to locate it away from the dog-walking muggles enjoying the day too. TFTC

Rehid plus added a swap for future cache hunters. TFTC!

Back at pine harbor today collecting some caches. No problems finding this one. We really liked the cache container. A great one for the kids.
Great little container! Out collecting some caches and whale tails on Auckland anniversary day. TFTC
Have got a replacement for the missing cache and will put it in place soon. I just have to make it into a shipwreck.
no luck, I'm sure we've done this one before but couldn't find on this occasion
I did laugh when I found this one. Only a light drizzle as I walked aling the beach. Had to outwait several canine muggles before zipping in to GZ. TFTC
I remember caching here before but it is always nice to be back in this spot.
No problems at all and I like the cache holder
Later on today I had a big pleasure to meet CO in person by his caching kingdom in Maraetai!
One day I will go around the "corner" because the tide was not on my side when arrived at GZ.
TFTC!
