Accompanied with Everlasting, went there on the wrong day – that’s very windy weather that caused the sands flying into our clothes, hair, ears, and eyes (not too bad because we wore the glasses). Thought we must be crazy for doing it in that condition. We spent a while in searching for the object similar to Centaur and couldn’t find. Looks like either it was missed or covered with sand. Recommended and be checked if it is still there. Thanks to Blingg for the fun.
Yeah it is true (see Varuna's comment) Hope Blingg will check up for us... SMILE.

Had a look for this one but did not find it, however I tried it before doing Centaur but I had already guessed what it might have been and did not find a similar cache here
I have pulled into the carpark on at least 6 occasions only to find the area jumping with muggles. Today on the the other hand the place was quite, so I made an easy find.
Cheers Blingg for the hunt

Found at 1510 hours, what a great hide, easy find with the wind blowing, had no problems with muggles today. Just read the previous log and noticed CraigRat found this yesterday.
I just returned form Tasmania on Saturday morning, then flew here on Saturday night, I had done a couple of CraigRat's cache whilst in Tasmania.

We just had to bring Craig (Team CraigRat) to this cache. Both Mal (3BlindEyes) and ourselves have done this cache but it is such a beautiful spot and a really great hide we had to have the fun of standing back and watching Craig look for it. He did a few fly bys but well he didn’t take too long at all really.
It was very windy and the surf was up but it really looked neat in that stormy way. We were greeted by the sight of two crazies (one in speedos) jumping in and going for a swim, the things people will do for adventure. I probably shouldn’t comment about the dude in the speedos at least he had something on, unlike my encounter at the Mandurah Mail Box.
So another lovely trip here with a different scene due to the windy stormy conditions. Thanks again blingg, totally enjoyed.

A really clever hide!
Found on a windy day in the company of Mischief's Crew and 3Blindeyes.
I would have been here for hours if someone hadn't dropped the hint that it was a cleverer hide than what I was expecting.
Had to pause a few times to avoid muggles, but in the end I had the cache in my hot little hand (about the only hot thing today... I had bought Tassie weather with me)
Thanks for the challenge... it's given me some evil ideas!

Great hide! Last time I saw a hide like this it was in California (before I copied the idea myself *grin*). Great fun! Thanks.
Black Swans found it today, nice day so dodging muggles all the while.
Very nice hide, blingg!
Grabbed Evil Micro CG

Braved the wet weather; took along a muggle - just as well 'cause it was he that spotted it! A cache after my own heart - nicely done. TNLN TFTH
Leaning into the wind I arrived at GZ and noted some muggles further up the beach and wondered if I would be able to search. Standing on GZ I had a bit of a head scratch then looked at something that was a bit odd and then found the cache at 1245hrs. A very clever hide and the co-ords are spot on which always helps. I took the cache for a walk and to look around the rocks before replacing.

Our 4th Blingg cache for the day.
Good spot and a good hide, we like these challenges as there is something for the mini magnums to do while we hunt. No one around when we remnoved cache but by the time we had written in the log book everyone on the beach seemd ot have arrived at our spot! Luckily the kids could cimb over the rocks for a while as we stood holding inconspicuously on to cache!

Island is a lot smaller than I remember it as a child. Rocks just as sharp though. Moved it to look for it.
Thanks for the hunt

Great hide in a great spot. I found it quite quickly at 3:45pm. Have never been to this 'island' before blingg, so thank you for bringing us here. I was out caching with Mischief's Crew today. Quite a few muggles around but with a bit of discretion it was easy to find, log and re-hide this cache. It reminded me very much of a cache I did in NSW 18 months ago called 'Light-A-Tack' (GCR6QN) at Port Macquarie, so I enjoyed this find. Thanks for the cache blingg.
What an AWESOME hide and what a beautiful place. Came here with 3BlindEyes using all the stealth required to find, log, rehide and slip away. It was just beautiful there. Thank you for bringing us here.

Grabbed Diabetes TB which was very carefully squished in there.

[I get dissapointed now if I] pick up a rock and theres no micro under it[...But glad I wasn't dissapointed this time..Great hide in a very popular area. TN.Left TB Monkayo Diabetes (such a good cache deserves a TB occasionaly, Oh yeah the note was already bent..). SL T4TH]
[Australian Branch] Blingg, are you the master of disguise?! This one has frustrated me all week, finally found by Gran Calebrecker. TFTH.
I was running out of time and did a quick 2 min search here, but far too many hiding spots and I gave up. Many muggles around, nice swimming spot.
Being out in the open my GPS was spot on and I found what looked like a perfect hiding spot but it seemed not the be there. A second look a few minutes later showed that I had been spot on but seriously unobservant. Thanks for a great cache.
Why do people have to park their 4x4 so close to the cache? (10 metres). Don't they know we're out caching? Found with TeamRoc TNLNSL TFTH This series by blingg along the coast is well worth the effort.
Found with Baldivis Settlers on our 4th cache quest. Way to go Blingg for a terrific string of caches. TNLNSL T4TH
Much better to attempt early morning! Clever hide as usual blingg. TFTH. (Watch out for muggles who stay in their cars and gaze out over the beach - you can't tell that they are there.)
Took two friends, visiting from Queensland, to show them what Geo-caching was all about. This one didn't work out though, as we would have had to reach over a bikini girl to search for the cache! Her boyfriend wouldn't have been impressed. Telling him he was a muggle probably wouldn't have helped our cause either so we'll try to hit a quieter time another day..
I think this was the first time I've held a cache in my hand an not known it!
It took me a little longer than it should have as a muggle-sunbaker had plonked herself less than a meter from GZ. That said, it allowed me to explore some more of the area while I waited for her to depart and it certainly is a pretty little spot.
I'll definitely have to come back here for a snorkel at some stage as there look to be some interesting little reefs out there.
Thanks for the cache!

A lovely COOLer day for a caching bonanza. Luckily I stumbled upon the 'spot' almost immediately, making for a very quick find, lucky also not to have any muggles in the vicinity. Thanks for a great hide, blingg.
Great hide, took me a while to find this, not too many ppl around. Thanks for the cache.
Quite surprised last night that it hadn't been found yet. Checked again this morning and still not found, so off we go armed with umbrellas (first rain since December 18). Got there at 0655hrs. Took a bit of searching but finally came up with the goods. Lo and behold, we were beaten again! Oh well, a STF is good too. Thanks to the rain we were untroubled by muggles. Thanks Blingg for another great hide.
Took the opportunity this morning to grab a couple of caches in these usually muggle infested places, seeing as it was raining and muggles tend to steer clear of the beaches in this weather! Another good hide and took a bit of a search to locate this one. Only concern I had was the possibility of muggles sitting in cars in the car park because they have a pretty clear view of the GZ and it's difficult to know whether the cars are actually occupied! TNLN SL Thanks for the hunt blingg.
FTF - Found on our way home from work and left a specimen of our hand writing. A very busy place, stealth is required.
