Could not find container but pages from log book strewn all round the area. Was a big storm last week so could have been damaged.
In the area doing some other caches, nice wander to GZ and no problems with the cache. Thanks
Great play area for the kids. Loved it even tho it was starting to get chilly. TFTC!

Had dinner at our local, the TGA Fish n Dive Club, then quick grab of the cache. TFTC
Sitting down placing this one back after writing in the log and a bloke walked past and said what did you find, I told him a rat as something went running past on the rocks......grrrrr [:p] TFTC
Quick find even though the coords felt alittle off. Had a sit down and watched all the boaties come in after a hot Saturday fishing. Trackable is no longer there....

TNLNSL TFTC#4970 We had driven south for the day from Auckland and were with our geomates Coruze, Kiara001 and TrooBloo endeavouring to capture the 2 webcams - any other caches were a bonus. This was a lovely positioned cache on the shoreline - GZ was deserted although a boat cruised past whilst we were adding our names to the log. Our thanks to kale29m for the cache and the fun. Cheers [^]
Found on a day out caching with Skullraching, Coruze and Troobloo. The weather was so lovely! TFTC Kale29m
Quite an easy find once the muggle cruiser past the site of GZ.
Found with Coruze, kiara001 and Skullracing on a very pleasant
day's caching in this area whilst in NZ for the mega.

A beautiful day to go for a walk and found this cache in good condition.Thanks Kale29m
Fortunately this was a nice quick find as a big black rain cloud was fast approaching. I just made it back to the safety of the cachemobile in time to avoid getting drenched. T4TC.
Quick find, short walk to retrieve this from our overnight spot. Very quiet here today as windy and lots of whitecaps on the harbour. TFTC
Found the cache but no evidence that there was ever a BMX track here now. Cold wind today.
Found without any problems and re-hidden as CO asked. Lovely spot, thanks for bringing me here. TFTC
Day five of the July school holidays, what better way to spend the Winter Holiday then driving to the BOP via the East Coast, looking for interesting caches, climbing hills and walking on beaches.
Quick find by Redants, a few walkers and a smoker behind the nearby building but fairly quiet at GZ.

Dropped off Moncton GC this afternoon to continue it's travels - seemed appropriate to place this by the sea as it's originally from the Maritime provinces of Canada.
A quick fnd while out for a morning run. Avoiding the muggles on passing boats - did some stretching instead while signing log. TFTC
Exact cord's, awesome early morning stroll, easy find. We made sure to place the cache back exactly where we found it. thank you found with KiwiJedi
Awesome location a must to visit. Great cache left as we found it, found with Arabelle
found spot straight away, but didn't look hard enough. Husband and son behind me had a better look and found it right where I was looking.
Found orginally as part of phasevisitor team, now created own account, re-logging as yorkshirekiwi83.
We were down from Auckland for a weekend in Tauranga and picked up a few caches in the morning before heading across to the Mount for an event. A quick find with no one around, Thanks for the cache!
Picked up Beer Mug TB.

Good quick find thanks to accurate coords and hint. Plastic bag containing log was split (sorry we didn't have a replacement with us) but log dry. No TB in cache but we left the Bavarian Beer Mug. No-one around at approx 5pm and a great view across the water as the sun was going down. TFTC!
A quick find during our bike ride over the bridge to Sulphur Pt. We were hoping the old BMX track would still be there for a blast around but it's all covered up now. TFTC. #132
Great Place to chillout but today it was cloudy and rainy. After our boat trip we were pretty much at the end, and after the found a taxi brought us to our accommodation.

Arrived here at this lovely spot on a beautiful clear evening. Nice easy find. Thanks for the great location.
first find of our day, nice and easy and nobody around. Cant believe I was in the same area only a month ago for a friends wedding and no idea this little treasure was here!
Grabbed a couple of pizzas with mates and headed here because the sunset was glorious. Check out the geocaching app and what do you know, there's one oh-so-close. Friends jumped in on the fun and cache was soon in hand.
Quick find before heading back to Auckland. Was able to drive to within a few meters of GZ. TFTC! 
#3597. Nice location. Quick find. Unfortunately, Tb Frogger was not in the cache. TNLNSL. TFTC.
Quick find on a nice day in the bay. Tftc

GPS led me straight to the correct place while Mr S and his crutches waited in the car. Had to pretend to be a grey haired old fart playing with driftwood, as they do, while a boatie muggle passed by, otherwise very quiet today. TNLN. TFTC, 
Great morning for walking, though everyone else around here seems to have parked their 4WD and boat trailer and headed out on the water.
Dropped off Hector's Dolphin GC which is visiting North Island caches with a sea-view. This cache certainly qualifies.

Had to find this being so close to work. Sat on the bank and watched the waka paddle past then located it quickly. Thanks for bringing me here.
Quickly found, and re-hid well. I have taken the two travel bugs so they can see Hamilton.
A well stocked and nicely hidden cache found while on a week-end soccer tournament in Mount Maunganui. TFTC.
Quick night cache to drop off 2 x TBs
Good boatramp with ample parking and good fishing nearby
Little miss muggle caught her biggest snapper not far from here

Found the cave, took TB. Very peaceful here, glad the rain is holding off. Mopped the cache out it was slightly swimming. TFTC
Easily found as was not very well hidden. Dropped off a TB and took out a GC. The cache is Is now well out of sight so hope it stays that way.
