Found on an autumn day, with temperatures in the high 20s, with Shaneo58. We came up from Newcastle/ Lake Macquarie to get a few around the Port Stephens. We started to head to GZ, but found the terrain get to difficult, on heading back to the car I spotted a sesema container in the burr of a tree. It had a card in saying ceocache and a wet log book Log signed and caches replaced as found. The cache was 50metres from GZ and in bad shape. Thanks For The Cache MADSTARS

Having a mini-break in Shoal Bay this week so I'm doing a vit of a geo-tour of the area today. Haven't been to Taylors Beach before but this won't be the kast time ... we are drawn to nice waterside picnic areas like this.

A straightforward find here but it took a couple of minutes all the same, mostly because my GPS had me in the middle of nowhere and I therefore had to check quite a few nearby possibilities, including the rock wall.

Thanks for the hide madstars.
 
10-Oct-18
All good. Nice hide

Beautiful spot!

After spending the last few days walking, hiking and riding thru the bush in search of the elusive geocache, we decided today to stick to caches we could either drive to, or which only involved a short walk. We'll just have to see how long that lasts!
This is a lovely little spot so we decided to have an afternoon cuppa in the picnic area. It was only then a short stroll beside the water to GZ where we made the find.

We have never taken the turnoff into Taylors Beach before. A very nice little place. The cache was found safely tucked away in its hide. Great waterfront park, TFTC.

Find #828
Out for a great day caching in Port Stephens today, Oyster Cove, Lemon Tree Passage, Tanilba Bay, Taylors Beach and Soldiers Point. Beautiful scenery at every turn, and the perfect day for it, bright sun, not a cloud in sight and 24 degrees. And then not a single DNF as well.... It doesn't get better than this!
Found this one while the lads chased several hundred thousant soldier crabs around the flats....

Funny - we started navigating here from Lemon Tree, the GPS said 2km, the car GPS said 34km.... needed a boat!

TFTC MADSTARS
 
15-Oct-16
We went caching out to Soldiers Point and other places today - we found 14 caches and NO DNFs! TFTC

Taylors Beach is one of YGAT's favourite places so we had to call in on the way out. I love the tranquility here. Thanks again MADSTARS.

Great spot for a cache! We arrived in the arvo/Eve on a low tide & got to enjoy a lovely breeze and watch the crabs marching in the sand. Left a little green heart in the cache for the next finder!
 
23-Jan-16
No good for kayaking today but I might be back in the morning depending on the wind. Storm brewing right now and its time to get back to the car before it starts pouring . All is well at the cache . Cheers
 
20-Jan-16
evangt (the t stands for Taylor) so it is absolutely appropriate to do this one. Lovely drive into Taylor's Beach. Nice tranquil location. Watched to crabs grouped on the beach and some children dragging each other across the beach on boogey board. Cache is an easy find away from where it is happening. Last one of the day. TFTC.

I mustn't have plugged this one into my GPS-r so it looks like another trip into Taylors Beach today to finish this one off. I should have brought lunch with me to this one as it is a perfect spot for a picnic. I looked through the previous logs in the book as I had a sit. LOL at some of the drawings. Perhaps a muggle has come across it. However, the cache is nice and dry and good to go.

quick find tftc

Tide right out , great area to visit, but Hubby went down the hill to get this one. Easy find TFTC
 
19-May-15
Headed back to the Nelson Bay area, to pick up a few more caches.
We visited lots of lovely beaches & bushland, where we found a good variety of hides.
Many thanks for placing this cache, MADSTARS, for us and others to find.

A very pleasant stroll to GZ.
Wonderful spot, thanks for bringing me down here Madstars

On our way to Fingal Bay for the day we decided to collect some smilies we had, until now, neglected.
A quick find of a cache still in good condition. Shame about the poor neglected cat, would have like to have taken it home. TNLNSL. Thanks MADSTARS
 
25-Jan-15
Found on our trip to Port Stephens. Well, we went the wrong way for this one, indeed. We didn't realise that you could walk along the shore from a few hundred metres away from GZ, so instead, we bush bashed 40m down the hill towards GZ - not a good idea. Anyway, it was still a lovely area down near GZ, where we quickly found the cache. Great views. TNLNSL. TFTC MADSTARS!
 
24-Jan-15
Good find. It was really hard but loved the hiding spot.
 
17-Jan-15
On our way to salt ash for a family gathering, we left early and found a place for breakfast, before coming back to this nice looking beach. Junior still is not to fond of the sea water, so stayed out of the water. Whereas his mother splashed her way along. At GZ we walked perpendicular to the water till we found the cache and signed and returned it, all in pretty good dry condition. On the way back I joined my wife in the shallow water, while Junior drudged along.
Thanks for bringing us to this beach we never would have found otherwise!

Found it on a warm Thursday while staying in Nelson Bay. Nice quiet beach. Lovely spot. TFTC

found this with Team Bob (Darzee Di, GrimRaider, KitteyKatch, MrRoo and wombatatcrows). This was a great area and enjoyed hunting down this cache I spotted a koala on the drive out of Taylors beach Smiletftc MADSTARS
 
30-Aug-14
Found on a four day geocaching weekend to Port Stephens with a bunch of mates. I made my way down to this area with GrimRaider, DarzeeDi and ACTchil and enjoyed checking out another beach. I made the find on this one and we soon had the log book signed and were on our way. On the way back we kept an eye out for koalas and ACTchil spotted one. We stopped the car and took lots of photos - just like the international tourists. A great highlight for us for the weekend. TFTC !
 
01-Aug-14
Lol not only did I take the t3 route down the hill from the girl guides site, I then got thrown off by a bottle of 'dry' on the shore and spent 10 minutes looking in the wrong spot. TFTC log full and needs replacing.

Great little beach. Soldier crabs everywhere on the beach. Nice easy find. TFTC.

GPSrs took us up to the Guide Camp so we turned around and went down to the park area. A bit of rain around so had the place to ourselves. Found GZ and the search began. Cache was spotted. SLTN TFTC.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

24/01/14. 5:18 PM. Cache #1268. 7th of 9 caches today. After clearing out all the caches from Soldiers Point, my next destination was Taylors Beach with its single, eponymous cache. My map app took me to the end of Albert St near the Girl Guides camp, but there was no obvious beach access, so I just headed to the parking at the end of Taylors Rd and followed the waterline to the cache. Easily found but had to be stealthy as the muggle family next door were out playing in their yard, so I took the cache down the beach with me to sign it, then walked it back.

Before heading back to where we're staying (Shoal Bay), I targeted 2 more caches in the Mambo Wetlands Reserve near Salamander Bay. TFTC }:)
