Found with a little help from some friends. Things were a little grown over which made it a bit tough to locate.

HAPPY DOOMSDAY!!
HAPPY DOOMSDAY!!
Just about to leave, when I finally found it! It's such a relief when you see the container sitting there
Great little collection of walking trails, although it makes me a little unhappy to see long haired dogs soaked in sweat on blistering days, sheesh put the A/C and stay home, don't torture your dogs. Cache found fairly easily without clue

This was quite an enjoyable cache. After just making it to the top of a nearby hill with my jumpy bike, I arrived at the entrance to the board walk. I followed it down to the GZ and had a seat. I initially traipsed a bit around the bush area, not thinking properly about the clue. When I did, the cache was quickly in hand.
Thanks for the cache Don.

Enjoyed an impromptu windy picnic in the nearby park and then strolled along the boardwalk in the early afternoon, out of the wind. Thanks for this one!

A second attempt at this one and no muggles about. Looked where the GPS had us last time but couldn't locate it. Moved a little further away, about 3 metres, and finally grabbed it. Took nothing, left 1943 halfpenny. Thanks Don.
Great hide!! Just about to give up and then found it!!! Only a few muggles though.
Didn't find it. Could not even see a place where a 200ml container would be hidden.
Nice walk along the boardwalk tonight.
Coords for us were out by miles and clue had us in the wrong spot.
Managed a grab at the right spot though.
Thanks for the cache.

1st of 2 DNFs today. Had plenty of time too look with no muggles about. Will have to have a think and come back.
Search GZ for 20 minutes and came up empty handed. I must be blind because I just couldn't find it amongst the grass and bushes beside the boardwalk.
One day at the beach here is really relaxing! We went to search the pathwalk to the cache. It was very quiet today and we found the cache after a little search. Thanks for showing us this great beach. Greetings from The Netherlands!
Took a while. Sunday afternoon high muggle activity. Found signed returned and admired the view. TFTC.
I took a wrong turn and found myself near Redhead beach. Oh well made the most of it and picked up this straight forwad cache.

Nice quick find but took 15 mins to return the cache, the area was really busy today. TFTC.
Once i checked the hint it didn't take long to find.
Took in the nice view while i signed the log.

OUt for an introductory walk with Vicki who bravely stuck her hand in and fished it out! Took travel coin and left erasers in a case. I lovely walk over the sand and an easy walk back over the boards! TFTC!
A nice walk along the constructed board walk,the last time I was here it was a trek through the sand dunes.
A fairly easy find with limited muggles due to the enclement weather.

Found with Grogmonster58, I haven't been to this beach in years, I use to surf here when I was younger & have memories of some great waves cought here.
The weather was a bit nasty today but that kept the muggles away.
Got to GZ and found the goods straight away.
Started to rain quiet heavily now think we will abandon getting more Caches today and go to the club instead to watch the football.

Had to sit and wait a few times for the muffles to walk / jog by, but found it in the end
Finally found on our third or fourth attempt - only took my Nephew 10 seconds! High muggle traffic and previously the area was overgrown. Added a 'GPS' trackable - help it on its way to Theme Parks please
Cute spot! Great flock of Maltese terriers came to visit us here which was fun. TFTC
Its still a nice spot on this second try with a find while dodging the 'walk for pleasure' crowd.
Reperio at 1755. Parked at the car park amid plenty of muggles and figured this one might be a bit harder to retrieve than thought. Got to GZ and there wasn't anyone in sight, so made a quick retrieval and managed to sign the log and replace the cache before the muggles from the car park strolled down. Will have to return and explore this area some more. A nice spot to sit.
Gratias.

Second cache for Mrs Shifter on the way home from a Guide camp at Redhead.
I took a pleaseant walk along the boardwalk from the park we used for numerous activities over the weekend.
Arrived at GZ to sit and wait for all the muggles to pass - what a busy place this is on a sunday afternoon. The view made the wait fairly easy though.
Had to have about three attempts to replace the cache as every time I went to replace it a muggle would appear along the boardwalk.
Thanks for another great location The-Don

FINALLY!! Third time lucky for us on this one. We had attempted this cache twice before and both times came away empty handed, so we were determined to get it this time. We were a little worried about how many cars were in the car park and thought we'd have trouble with too many muggles, but they were all headed to the doggy beach and didn't cause us a problem. I kept lookout while Marco searched and two seconds later he had the cache - found it in the first place he looked!?! We dropped off the All in One GC and picked up the Trakabulldog GC. TFTC
Nice little walkway along the shore. Had to go back when I realised I had dropped my glasses. Thanks for bringing me here.
5th and last find fo rteh day.
Quite a few muggles around
Found quickly
Nice beach.

TFTC. did this one as the sun came out on the 10/10/10. didn't know this board walk was here. nice work council .
I didn't know this boardwalk was here, nice, A quick find - I've done many board walks and know HOW and where to look, Signed log, then relaxed for a while and looked at all the ships, Thanks.
1st cache we have found for quite a few weeks!!!. Littlebub found it after a short search. What a beautiful view of the beach with a tanker just peeking into view, I got a great photo, thanks for a lovely cachehunt!!
This is really a lovely area, I haven't been here for years and i'd forgotten how nice it was.
Of course back then I had no idea about caching, so it's nice to revisit now!

Only one of the 4 I was able to do! One disabled, two archieved, one (Madsters Swamp) the day AFTER I last updated the GPX... DOH! Got this one though
Rated: for Overall Experience
Our 2nd of the day and full of muggles!! Fingers crossed the dog walkers didn't sniff out our caching ways! Great place for a walk - and a cache of course! Things were a little damp in the container as it's so low...
This was our second attempt to try and find this cache and despite searching long and hard we still ended up frustrated and empty handed. Would really appreciate an email from The-Don with a helping hand on where we are going wrong with this one.
Found on the return trip. GPS was out by about 10 M but persistant geohubby reread the clue and systematically searched to retrieve this one. TFTC
It took a bit of a search to find this one and extract it from its hidey-hole. There was no-one near us besides a distant steady stream of surfers returning from the beach, but I bet it gets busy at times. TNLN, thanks for the good hide.
Almost a DNF we were scratching around looking, looking, looking in the obvious locations. Went for the clue and taking on the advice it was almost left right out of view...we did manage to locate the little blighter SL and returned it to its hide....ready for the next one to take a short break.

The breeze had picked up on the way to this one which made for cooler walking. Found it after a short search.

Nice cool walk along the track in the cool of the evening. Just watch out for the large webs across the track.
