Logs
No cache here for ages according to the DNFs, and offline for nearly six months. Please archive to free the spot up, or replace soon.
It's a terrific spot, and extremely cacheworthy. However, after numerous DNFs and no finds since August last year, I think it's high time this one was checked/replaced. We're planning to come back here in the not-too-distant future, if we can get the half for Peter Is we'll replace it ourselves 
Had a good, thorough search all around what was reasonably GZ, and within 20m of it. Nothing. Terrific spot, though.
Currently sitting at Cape Spencer and will be all night, plenty of time to look around waiting for the Adelaide - Lincoln yachts to go past. If anyone has any clues sms me on 0429 838 223
add another dnf..... great spot though even without finding a cache... love to visit that island out a bit to check the lighthouse out..... thanks for showing the way!
Again! 
, really wanted that other half of "Peter Is" cache coordinate too... Had some vague help from the F-T-Finders but still no luck. Must be really well hidden and really didn't want to disturb the groundcovers too much. We'll be back again sometime. Cheers 'scargoes (P&F)

Might try again at a later date. Thanks anyway
Didn't find it but didn't care. I was too busy looking at the amazing scenery (and I hardly looked after seeing the previous logs). And one of those Sausage lizards payed a visit to the lighthouse. Isn't it great when your favourite geocache of the weekend and just about of all time is one you didn't even find? Thanks for bringing me here.
Another DNF on a Anja cache 
, this time we had no competition with muggles and searched high & low for 30 minutes but no luck .
Still a great spot and fantastic views all-round. Thanks & Cheers 'scargoes (P&F)

Nice Spring day for a visit to the lighthouses.
Searched high and low for this one while the place was muggle-less, but had no luck.
This DNF thwarted our plans for the Peter Is cache which the Geo-kids were very keen to do. (Had even checked tide times and brought the aqua-shoes)
Maybe next time - I am sure we will be back. TFTC.

Enjoyed the spectacular stroll to the lighthouse, but despite my best efforts, I could not locate the cache.
Will enjoy visiting this spot on my next trip down here.

Found by Mary & David at 1440. Had a look inbound this morning, but made a wrong assumption which meant we missed it. Returned on our way out of the Park for another look after a small hint from the locals. We were sitting very close to it this morning. Great to see this spectacular view twice. Our thanks once more to Anja.
Had a long look all over the area for about 20 mins but failed to find. Thanks for the cache anyway.
A visit to Innes Nat Park and not go to Cape Spencer..must see location..
Love to beach down below...great spot for taking waves.

Quick easy find with 'The Hunta' on our Innes NP raid.
Nice views, It's a shame so many sailors lost their lives around here.

Found on the Swampy + Adrian Mc Caching YP and beyond Tour 2009.
A quick find. Gathered some info required for another cache in the area, although the log is a bit faded from having been wet at some point in time.

Lighthouses seem to attract visitors and I'm no exception. Took lots of photos of the islands, the beaches and the cliffs. Thanks

Wow got here around lunch time and was full of muggles so we waited and read all about the various shipwrecks very interesting.
once we finally retrieved it we took the mini torch and left 4 cow tattoos which lil miss geo did not want to part with. The views here are just amazing!!!!

This would be one of the greatest locations this weekend, the views were spectacular
An invigorating walk to the cache with stunning views in every direction. Thanks Dylanja
Found by the owner, I think, while I was on a different level. Another awesome location.
Found whilst out on the tour of the YP with the burgundy brigade
I made a nice easy find, and took care of the log, whilst others took in the view. Once all the formalities were completed a chance for a few photo's, before being blown back to the car. Worth the trip

Eighteenth find today after a short walk to the lighthouse took a long time to find it but was quite obvious once found it contents a little damp but container seemed fine so maybe was found in the rain and hasn't dried properly. TFTC
An education. You can go ballistic with the digital - even when it is overcast and the weather is ordinary. Sunlight makes for good shots, (I had very overcast conditions) so for mine here I have added some geographical notes......
Thanx Dylanja (for the dots) and clear skies (next time!) [^]
Found the cache at 4.50pm. Excellent view. SL. Hey the log is so wet... Thanks Dylanja for organising the cache and hunt.
Found at 9:30
Spent some time looking for this. Just sat down to check for hints and Tracey saw it. It was cool here - hard to imagine the heat wave of the last couple of weeks now.
Lovely scenery here - cliffs and pounding surf.

Lots of muggles - had to quickly find between muggle visits - Found by Grom Dad we left a dog and RG card and took pinnoccio. Great view, top spot.
No swaps (yet another tiny cache)
lovely walk (worth it)
cool cliffs with great views.

There has been some revegetation work going on here, and I unfortunately never managed to investigate properly. The area was closed for all of December, it should be open now, but there are no guarantees. (I thought I had disabled it, and this log was to reactivate, but I didn't. Oops!) I was quite pleased with hide, and the location of GZ itself, so I doubt it will have been affected. Fingers crossed!
What a fantastic walk , a beautiful day but alas no dolphins to be seen .Left a fishing lure and took an Aussie flag
Unfortunately we got muggled out of looking for this one - such a shame, I guess we'll just have to come back again!
Very crowded on a blustery day. Luckily all the crowds left together and we had a chance to look around. We doubled up with Stralker for his first cache!
"The Hedge" and "Darko" came by to re-check something, and gave us a nod in the right direction.
Was a little bit intimidating having other cachers watch you searching (in the wrong spots!), but they were good spirited.
Nice mini cache. Thanks Dylanja.
Left Pinocchio and took Buddha.

This took us 2 attempts, as we searched and searched for it without luck. Back at base camp. Master Darko, cofirmed it was within GZ.
Now we can begin to tackle Peter's Is.
Cheers from The Barramundi's

Took a while to find but eventually the co-ords were very close. Very well hidden. Wind at about 40kts when we were there. With the 2nd 1/2 co-ords in hand we were ready for Peter Is.
I think we got silver for this one but had to come back as we didnt get the hint for Peter Is. Oops!
Almost lost the cache down the wind as it was blowing millions miles an hour!

Really suprised to be finding these as FTF's. Again great views, but the wind was blowing about 40knots.
Cheers and thanks for the cache
