This cache is no longer there. Don't have the means to rebirth it at the moment so I'm making it available to anybody else who would like to create a cache for this beautiful place.
DPAW has done recent work around the cache and I think the cache has been removed by muggles.
pug002 also didn't find it 16/4/2016, like the previous logs we also searched and it eluded us.
Misery seems to be contagious
I couldn't find this cache after a good 20 minutes of poking about
I found a couple of those pesky "Munzies" though

Coordinates were about 7m off thankfully we had a hint so quick grab. TFTC cheers
Gorgeous day for this cache and had heard about Misery Bay so named due to all the blood from the Whaling station. T4TC
Grey nomading and caching our way up the middle, across the top, down to Perth and home to Adelaide for Xmas. Took longer than expected as the GPS was all over the place. But Mrs Wombat spotted it. T.F.T.C.
Was walking away from this one to join Pa down at the beach, when I glimpsed the well hidden container. Now muggles are heading down the path so Pa took some photos. It was a quick signing of the log before returning it to its hidey hole. TFTC TNLN SL
On a trip down south with the team from Perth doing some coaches along the way!
Looked all over the place for this one, the gps just would not settle! Oh well, will this one again when we are down here next. Thanks for bringing us here anyway!

Last time we were here we could not find this one but today a quick find was accomplished.TFTH
# 7912. Robmc and I had a 7.00am start from Bremer Bay heading to Albany today. We are going to attend the CITO event out near the whaling station. Grabbed a few caches on our way to town and after the event found a few more thanks to checking the iPhone on the way out, as we headed off to set up camp at Denmark.
Grabbed this one whilst everyone was getting organised for the CITO. Picked up the lovely CITO geocoin dropped in minutes earlier. Will take it along to the CITO Event in Perth soon (hopefully)!.
Rob and I did go down to Misery Beach to perform some CITO but it was relatively clean. The waves were pounding in here thought and not leaving much beach to clean up.
Thanks Team Shermy

Day twenty five of the WA road trip with BettyBoo3747.
Left Bremer Bay in the drizzle early this morning and travelled down to Albany for the CITO event. Grabbed a few Rural Towns on the way (and a home made pie!). Left the event early to set up our tent, but found a few new caches on the way.
I had never been to Misery Beach - it is a lovely spot.
I can't claim that it was my skill that located the cache, when I walked down the path MacKenzie had just recovered it. She was polite enough to wait for me to write my name on the log before rehiding. (Thanks for that)
Thanks, Robmc.

Looked for this one before but could not find Probably because of the Dnf's messing with my head lol. Easy find this time
Looked hard but to no avail even the second look without muggles no luck with this one.
Had trouble finding this one. We found a likely spot where the cache could have been, but unfortunately there was nothing to see.
Found the spot easily but no cache, had a good look about, may have gone walk about.
Easy find but was disturbed by muggles as I went to pop it back... felt like they stayed 'forever'. Luckily I had mini-me with me as she gave me a good excuse to loiter while I waited for them to leave.
Day 3 in Albany and we decided to spend it in the Torndirrup National Park taking in the views and a few caches along the way. We thought we might trek out to Bald Head but ran out of oomph (ie fitness) and made it to Bald Spot but picked up our 2,5000th cache along the way. It was another beautiful sunny day and we got to see the park and coast line at its best. The only thing missing were a few whales swimming by .
Workers were busy replacing the bollards in the car park, no doubt in readiness for the upcoming Anzac celebrations. Luckily the shrubs shielded us from them log. Grabbed the donate like while we searched, which took a bit of time. Eventually found the well hidden cache and signed the log. Also grabbed the Donate Life tag and will turn it into a TB.
Thanks for the cache Team Shermy [^] - all was good & dry

Came down to Albany to find out what everybody was on about (all the awesome caches around the Great Southern Area). Had the roymercs on the "to do" list along with the WA Explorers series, not to mention as assortment of puzzles that I had managed to solve before the trip.
Found this one after a short search. Thanks for bringing me out to this spot Team Shermy

First for the day hope we get a few done before the rain starts. Found a TB Jeep KPB261. Left a "Donatelife" please talk to your family and pass it on. TFTC
Found at 1:54:00 PM while seeing the sights of Esperance before continuing on our way to Perth.
Thanks Team Shermy

Headed south for a relaxing road trip with the Western Patrol Club and a mate. We stayed at Cheynes Beach before heading across to West Cape Howe and then into the Stirling Ranges for our last few nights. Beautiful coast line, awesome hills, great fishing, and some good 4wding. Gotta love this state of ours.

Traveled down to Albany and the Stirling ranges area with a mate at Easter, did this cache as part of a whole heap. Great way to see the fantastic areas on show. Good to see some really interesting areas hidden away.

Easily found with out going off track. Great container. Greetings from Northern Ireland. TNLNSL
Sadly there are some track around the back of the tree/bush here when there is no reason for it considering the cache notes say not to leave the track.. A good regular sized container as well - I intend to make up a few of these this year for new caches around Perth. No swaps, but SL. A well concealed, but easily found cache - thanks to Team Shermy.
This was our 3rd cache find in a caching run of 11 Finds & 0 DNFs today.
We found it at 08:55 so this now makes our total find count 8021.
[blue]We cached with The Drovers again today. As there was a triathlon in Albany today, we decided that it would be much better to stay away and do some out of town caches.
A nice, quick find today.
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Smiley Badge.
Dropped: TB "Jeep 4x4"
Thanks Team Shermy for the hunt today.

This is our last morning of caching with Ian and Penny, as we go our separate ways tomorrow.
We decided to cache along Frenchman Bay Road, and a few others in the area.
This is an amazing stretch of coast with some good trail walks and amazing views.
Cache was an easy find, and in good condition.
Many thanks for the hunt today, Team Shermy.

An easy find, but tricky replacing the cache with all the traffic up and down the stairs!! TFTH!
the last one for today! it really seems, that something has changed here. well, we did not unterstand the hint... and in the end we found the cache by accident! thanks and greetings from switzerland, drummers2105
To be one of the most beautiful beaches visited so far. The clear blue water and the sand made us stop for a few hours. Thanks for bringing us here. TFTC+FP
I found this one with my Mum & Dad (jasenjanine), while on our Christmas holidays ... TFTC Team Shermy
Day 6 of our holidays staying in Albany, we planned to head out to Frenchman Bay for the day & of course finding some caches along the way I initially went in search of this one whilst the rest of the family were in the car, but the hint threw me way off & I was totally confused as to what I was looking for [?] Went back to tell Jase & of course he told me I was looking for a 'regular' size container & went & found it in the first spot he looked
TFTC Team Shermy... Great spot you have shown us here, I hope to come back on another holiday & walk up that great big rock wall[^]

Good little hide at a lovely location. March flies a bit friendly!
