Find#3054After a weekend of drinking and catching up with my old high school friends, I came here to claim this cache before going home. A nice easy find with a good hint. Cache and log in good condition TFTC MADSTARS
Out caching with WRAACie on this very windy day. Spotted the cache but how to reach it? Lucky I had an agile friend who did the climbing. TFTC
Day in the bay to cache with Kaz444 it was so windy but we found parking easy for a Sunday. Great caches great view great company.This need a bit of thought on how to reach the cache. When we saw it. We manage to retrieve it TFTC
Nice easy find, no pen or pencil so couldnt sign the log though. Little bigger than micro ha! Thanks for the hunt!
I was lucky to have the tool I needed for this in my car. The second time that I have used this tool and it has more than paid for itself now.Weirdos seen: little kid with an orange mullet, very talkative. Weather: crisp but cool. Sunny in the sun, shady in the shadeGPS: talking well with the satellites.Lots of driving and listening to podcasts and stopping to grab caches and figuring out where all the Adventure labs were.Wildlife seen: bunnies, bunnies, bunnies at my campsite.Snack situation: Sushi from salamander bay shopping centreTFTC and thanks for showing me this new place and maintaining the cache here.
It took approximately a minute to find the geocache, was hard to open, fun for families
Soldier's point has got to be my favourite spot at Port Stephens. Stayed here Lots of times,often walked past, run past and cycled past this dpot. First time we have done a cache. Thanks for bringing us back to this beautiful spot.Thanks for maintaining the cache.
Extended the search a little bit from gz on my phone and soon had cache in hand, before geo hubby! Yeah, its a plus. But good job he was with me for retrieval TFTC
Thank you. A nice find. A bit high for me though so luckily my partner stood on his car jack for me.
GZed and I are up from Sydney for the long weekend with family. We went for a drive through Soldiers Point. Pretty and quiet little suburb. We made a quick find thanks to the detailed clue. TFTC!
Find # 9735Nice quick find.After DNFing this cache nearly seven years ago, we have returned to claim the smiley!TFTC MADSTARS ??30 September 2023 11:31
Had to get my wife to reach up for this cos I was too short, but found quickly. Our first time in this area.

I dropped by here while on a morning walk around the area. Thankfully there was no one on the courts so I had the run of the place (unlike 15 minutes later when the courts were packed! 
Phew). It didn't take long before I spotted the cache but spotting it and signing the log are 2 different things.
Anyhoo, after about 5 minutes and a bit of gymnastics , I was finally signing the log at 08:15 and on my way around the point.
TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks MADSTARS.

Found on a cool, windy morning with a young family playing on the equipment but otherwise quiet. Thanks for this cache today.
ruzzelz had to retrieve this cache, as I'm vertically challenged 
We found it around 13M from where the compass was pointing.
TFTC MS!

Found on a rainy day exploring the area. TFTC Log is happily full and needs new one
My daughter did the retrieval duties for this one , making memories . Thanks for the cache tnln replaced as found sl
Found, but had to climb onto the fence as I’m not tall enough to reach it from the ground. TFTC
Found with geokids while on holidays at Soldiers point. We are off to find a spot for an afternoon picnic. TFTC.
Been to this spot before but wasn't able to look for it due to people playing tennis. Today was rainy and there was nobody around and after a quick search the container was in our hands.
TFTC.

A quick and nasty find after checking out the point in drizzly weather. Back to the camp for lunch from here. tftc
Visiting the area from Sydney on a sunshiny Easter Sunday. Mr Gaztek did the finding here while Mrs G was on a Zoom with friends in the US. Fortunately not too many muggles around which is very different from Nelson Bay. SL TFTC Cheers… Gaztek
Definitely wouldn't have found it without the hint. Great spot and nice weather for a change. TFTC
Found with Laimelde. It's a bit rainy today so no muggles around. Good hide, very sneaky. I think the cache description gives a bit too much away but still fun. Thanks!
Found with MrsCowell23. Lucky to have her with me as this would definitely be a challenge for us shorter people! Also, the description is now useful than the coords; they're way off.
My second leg of my trek today, i walked from All is Well, thinking that no-one would be playing tennis on a day like today. Oh, there is someone playing. Lucky, they were very close to finishing, and as i waited, i figured out by some intel, that it could only be in one of 2 spots. It was the second spot i tried. TFTC.
Great spot to hide it, had to be stealthy to put it back. The placecwas busy all weekend.
Found this one with a muggle friend yesterday afternoon after finding a koala and bird watching.
TFTC!
TFTC!
Thank you for the hint…wouldn’t of found it otherwise cache in good condition TFTC
TFTC a quick find along our journey. Thank you for the clue we would not have found it using GPS today.
Found on a long weekend away from Sydney, unfortunately I didn't have a working pen to sign the log so will return to sign
Had a quick chat with a local tennis pro who said “it’s been a while since someone came looking for that” as I retrieved the cache
Looks like the locals know this one is here as they gave us a knowing nod when we picked this one up. True to hint.
A very quick find and really appreciated the hint as there were quite a few muggles nearby. TFTC

We needed the date for our date-found grid, so decided on a 'day at the bay'. We used the so-named adventure lab to set our course, and grabbed what else we could along the way. It managed to get pretty warm and very humid, so we've left some of the more adventurous caches for a future outing. We managed 15 finds all up, including a handful of GA virts.
I remember this from a previous trip - I think it might have been disabled at the time or had a run of DNFs? With muggles playing tennis, we pre-emptively deployed the hint to focus our search, and had it quickly. This is a nice little hide! TFTC....
