We stopped in this interesting little part of the world for a couple of hours catching up with friends who have a shack here. After a couple of quiet drinks and nibbles, and becoming more relaxed and peaceful in the lovely surroundings, we said goodbye and went to find this cache on our way to dinner at Pt Broughton.

An easy find, however, my brand new GPS froze and kind of died whilst looking for this one, so luckily I'd located the general direction of GZ before that happened.

Found with my muggle friend, on a weekend road trip from Adelaide to Wallaroo, and surrounding areas......escaping Clipsal mayhem was the aim of the game!!

Thanks for the cache SIDEandHEEK Smile
 
02-Mar-16
Enjoying a little time caching around Port Broughton from our current digs in Wallaroo.

A nice, quick find on a hot day on the coast.

Like you we have enjoyed many holidays on this Peninsula when my parents owned a shack at The Pines on Southern Yorkes.

Many thanks for the hide SIDEandHEEK[^]

Had finished lunch in Port Broughton with LLL51 and Madham02 and we came for a drive up here to have a look and there was a cache here. [^] I saw the hide as we drove past so we stopped so I could grab the cache and sign the log before heading back. Big Grin

Had 2 watchdogs keeping guard on the front lawn, so steered wide of the house and found the cache quickly - love the very obtrusive but well hidden cache. Walked to the boat ramp afterwards and watched many crabs scuttle around. Signed log

Removing maintenance log notice. All seems fine.

The family has now sold the shack, so the new owners probably don't know about geocaching so please use stealth and be respectful.

I don't think I have ever seen a place like Fisherman's Bay before [:o]
It's like one of those British holiday camps of the seventies that you see in the Carry On movies !! Razz
Even more so, out of season, like now !! Big Grin
No surf, just a ramshackle collection of accommodation all run by a holiday camp manager Smile
Even the playground near GZ is straight out of the seventies [:o]
I haven't seen one of those kite swings for years !!

I'm sure that during summer 'olidays the place would come alive Razz

But I'm not going to hang around to find out Big Grin

TFTC, it was an easy find !! Big Grin

And is that the CO's shack that is up for sale [:o]
What ?? Not 'nuff excitement around here for you ?? Wink

Hi IF

Glad you found my cache, Fishermans Bay is an amazing buzzing place over summer holidays and long weekends. Unfortunately the family are selling the shack, shame... I would have loved to have taken my kids to the shack too.

First for the day and a quick find. Nice to see a real 'shack' area. Could see the attraction of having one here but they sure are packed closely together.
Thanks, enjoyed our visit out here.

Geocaching expedition with fellow Kadinian Karpy Karpyson on a sparkling spring day, covering Port Broughton through to Snowtown. 14th find of the day. When we arrived close to the cache, there was someone watching in the window. I felt uneasy about stopping, but KK was insistent. Soon those in the shack came out, informing us they were parents of SIDEandHEEK. Awesome stuff! Found out Dad is a fellow teacher! Good stuff! TFTC
