Unfortunately it is time for this one to go Sad
We have been back five times over the last few weeks, but there is too many renovations currently happening on the beach hut in question to have anywhere safe to replace the cache.
 
02-Oct-11
Someone has done a big clean up, both the plants and cache are gone.
Will have to try and find a new spot.

Dashed up here tonight to find one cache to continue my continuous finding streak.
Parked the car in the No Stopping area at the end of the street and dashed out onto the sand. A quick and easy search soon had the cache in hand, and as I retreated to the car, I almost blinded a couple of dog-walking muggles with 1000 lumens of torchlight! TFTC

#34 Found today after a couple of mins when the GPS settled down a bit. We took the penguin and put in Snoopy's head. Very rough weather today, as you could see lots of white-caps on the waves and the wind was very strong. TFTC Tatty

Nice spot among the beach houses
 
09-Jun-11
After yesterdays mega drive up to New South Wales and back, driving south to pick up this cache was a breeze. This one was the final one of the morning before I headed to work. It was a nice little stroll along the beach. The title of this one had never made sense to me until this morning. A nice group of beach boxes greeted me, and the search began, and ended sooner than I thought. The cache container was quite exposed so after signing the log, I returned and recovered it as best I could. Thanks to Tatty for this nice location.

Just logging my personal name tag to track my personal distance traveled.

Another cool blustery day, so the muggle menace was negated.
The cache was found easily and the log book signed.
When I was very young, like primary school, the family of a school friend had a box down here somewhere which they used to bring us down too.
Didn't recognise anything however.
Thanks for the cache and the forgotten memories Tatty.

We chose the best day to attempt this one, had the beach to ourselves.
There's nothing better than some time on the beach.
The name sure became obvious as we walked to GZ.
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks Tatty for the caching fun!

Thanks for the cache and thanks for the Hint, it saved us digging in the sand for any buried treasure Smile
 
05-Dec-10
Good spot down here - the beach was nearly deserted, which was strange because it was a perfect day for it once the clouds had burnt off. Didn't go for a swim as we had caching business to attend to - we were sorely tempted though. Picked up a geocoin to move along, TFTC.

Team onion on the beach having a cold and windy hunt . TFTC!!

# 554,
I was looking in the wrong spot at first ( bloody GPSr ) and I think there was a muggle watching me thru those great big windows, but then I found the correct spot, no one watching now.
Thanks Tatty for the cache.

Staying in Glen Waverly for 2 weeks on business so decided to get out and about..as the morning wore on the weather got worse and worse, and as i stood in the shelter of the beach hut logging my find the clouds came rolling in..just had time to replace the cache and dart behind the hut to shelter under the tiny eave...boy did it hammer down!..and i was stuck there for about half an hour..lol..
No coat...dress shoes...(smart for walking on the beach)..NOT....i felt a right Dill stood there in the rain, the things we do to find some tupperware.!..great spot though, i will have to return during several more planned trips over from Perth.

#132 - Another wonderful quick find. Loved it! Popped down there about 8pm. Hardly anyone there. Beautiful waves and the most gorgeous late evening sunshine. But super cold wind, so we certainly didn't stay around for long Smile.
 
17-Nov-10
On another night caching run with Quasar3671 - my good mate Marty. This time the cache run was down his way. Found pretty quickly, but pretty amazing how much the sand has tried to reclaim the boxes.. Photo uploaded.

Out night caching with Marshy (Blacklegend) who was down from the country to stay the night. Did a number local caches before heading north. Made the short stroll from the car park to GZ and made a quick find. Thanks for the hide, cheers.

Nice spot along the beach for a quick find. TFTC
 
12-Nov-10
After a dnf at "Go,Stop,Go" we thought that we would try our luck with a traditional. After the huge storm that had just ripped through we had the entire beach to ourselves. The area looked fantastic with the last of the setting sun glistening of the water and a storm rolling past on the horizon. It would have been an ideal photo opportunity if we had a camera with us. The cache itself was a nice easy find and after signing the log we headed back to the car just as the rain started again.
Thanks Tatty for the cache

Well that was a busy night, well done to the Bearsleys!
I can't believe C@H and Spladem managed to be in the right area at publishing after nabbing a FTF with them earlier that day, now you know what I was really doing down that way in the morning Wink

*FTF* 10pm on the dot.

Night-time geocache races are a buzz!

We're at a party when the cache comes up, and I can't resist. "Off you go!" says Tam, so I grab a friend Chris and we duck out.

We don't have torches but the phones work in a pinch. A short walk along the beach in the dark, mind the big sand hole, and we're there. I love this address, it's a great spot for a hide. And FTF! Woohoo!

Later that night I'm explaining the geocaching concept and a friend asks... "So what's the point?"

For me, it's for adventuring moments like this.

Thanks, and cheers from Team Bearsley!

C@H and I had just collected the Chirp GZ Coords for Beacon Of Safety when this one popped up.. we hit the road straight away and thought we were making good time.. however we were surprised (in a happy way) to discover that there were 2 others that had already found it.. FTF comp is hot and that's great.. When I first saw Hazey1 (not knowing who he was) I assumed he was the owner and was waiting around to see who would be first.. not soo.. wow.. when returning to the car shortly after we heard 4tf arriving and we lay in hiding.. TFTC Tatty.. Find # 672

FTF - oh, well, fourth to find actually. pretty hot tonight with 4 teams finding this within 9 minutes, between 10pm and 10.09pm. C@H and Spladem heard EB Max and I coming so hid in the long grass. We went down to the beach so they missed out on jumping straight out at us. I don't think my ticker could have taken it.
Congratulations to the Bearsleys on their FTF. Well done
 
06-Nov-10
Fourth to Find with the chief. C@H and Spladem tried to surprise by lying in wait, but luckily they didn't go boo. Pretty cool meeting people down at the beach, at night, with torches.
Thanks for the cache - there were no muggles tonight, only cachers
 
06-Nov-10
When this one popped up we where not far from it. When we arrived at GZ we found another cacher leaving who informed us we where 3rd. Before leaving a 4th team turned up making 4 finds within 10 minutes of being published. Wow. TFTC
 
06-Nov-10
STF 10:01pm, TFTC; say this pop up while i was in Mordy so headed down to the beach. Arrived near Gz and saw FTF Cachers departing; made my way along the beach with minimal light for an easy find. When departing caught up with a further two cachers. Enjoyed meeting some other cachers. TLNL SL
