Logs
A nice walk down the beach here and we had a quick stop to find this cache. There are so many beautiful views on this walk. Highly recommended. If we had more time we would have done more of the multis here which looked interesting.
We really enjoyed walking the coastal trail today. Thanks for the cache! Beautiful views
Third cache along our coastal walk, and we trusted the coordinates TOO much after searching high and low for the prior. Our coordinates were off by about 5m, so we were very close to giving up even with a descriptive hint.You DO NOT need to leave the path to find this cache.
Found with nissan65 on a caching trip to collect a few more of the local caches. Thankyou for your contribution to geo caching
Nice walk around the point to collect this one. Fantastic views of the bay. Thoroughly enjoying the weather (16 degrees!) after escaping a southern Vic winter for a week. TFTC
Nothing I could see in the obvious places. It appears many people have left the path searching this area.
Looks like this one might need some checking. Wont be for a couple of weeks though.

Strong wind on stroll up hill but littleMiss happily found it as we looked for whales
#5 today on our coastal trail hike. visiting from BC, Canada. Awesome trail!! TFTC
Gorgeous day for caching and taking pics of the coast line! Tftc! Whales were sighted!!
After the previous DNF, finding this was fairly easy thanks to Ms Atalanta’s keen eye.

Was windy enough to blow a cache off the hill but managed to find and sign log. Thanks for the cache
Found 2:33 pm with fiancée. We are staying nearby and went for the walk and of course I’ve got to find the geocaches I haven’t found at least the standard ones. Fair bit of whale activity hit a little further out occasionally see a bit and spurts. I made a note here stay on track. Anyway found after a bit of a look around.
Signed the log and returned all to its hiding place.
Thanks for the cache.

We continued on with our walk to find a couple more caches on this beautiful coastal stretch. The cache was quickly spotted. TFTC!

We went out for a quick morning cache run today, to do a little more of the Coastal Walk and others. By the time we got here the water was getting low and the sun high (and hot). I hadn't really started searching yet, the GPS hadn't settled, but I spotted something, moved it and there was the cache..... all in great condition. We then went back to the car and headed off for a few (relative) park and grabs. TFTC

We followed the navigation and clue to go 7 up and came across where we think it would have been but no luck today
DNF. Found the spot were we believe the hint is suggesting but catch appears to be missing.
Can see the zip tied rusty magnet that matches the hint location but no cache to be found
TFTC. Found it on the ground near where we’re assuming it’s meant to go. Have placed where we think it was.
Great cache. Clue had us stumped. But then Gremlindaddy found it. TFTC. We are attempting several caches along the coastal walk... this was our third find for the day.
Found at 12:30:00 PM
This one took me a little while to find. The clue initially confused me, by eventually I hung my head over the fence and spotted the cache.
Thanks LHBfans

Found with SJG66 on a 4 day stay in PMQ, today we walked the coastal walk from Tacking Point back to the breakwall where we were staying. Thanks to all the CO's who have placed and maintained caches in this area, it made our stay very enjoyable.
Checked and all good here today. The drought has ruined the vegetation which used to disguise this cache somewhat, so please be careful when re-hiding.
A bus took me to Shelly beach from where I started a coastal walk towards lighthouse. This is a lovely spot with well-hidden geocache

[#2716; 8/5/2019] Nicer part of our geocaching team is visiting Australia with her mum and her niece. They found this cache on their trip and enjoyed the place. Thanks for the cache.
We hadn’t made much progress along the coastal walk and thought that we needed to walk rather than cache or we might never get home! However, this one was a quick stop so we grabbed it. TFTC
Loved the hint! Found within 10 sec. Beautiful day, beautiful beach! Greetings from Sydney.
Great walk among forest and along beach enjoyed immensely, easy find cache all good, thankyou for showing me this part of PMc tftc
Lovely walk along the coastal walk path. We walked from the breakwall campground to this point. Did a couple of caches. Not hard to find with the hint. Thanks and grtz from Holland
Auf dem schönen Spaziergang auf dem Costal Walk konnten wir diese Dose schnell finden. Danke an LHBfans für diesen Cache.
Continuing on from the multi it was up the steps to this one. A few muggles about but far enough away to allow us to make the find and sign before re hiding. TFTC.
I did a maintenance run today. The vegetation which used to disguise this cache quite well has been slashed or has died off in the heat. I've improved the hiding a bit and put a better waterproof container and new log within the original, rediscovered container. Please take care when replacing. This has always been a problematical cache. Hopefully it will good for a while now.
Early morning walk New Year’s Day. Sadly only the magnetic base attached at gz. Cache missing
Cancel that... I found container in the bushes cliff side. Have attempted to sign the very wet log and returned to position. TFTC and lovely views!
On a road trip with my muggle friend from Canberra to Brisbane with a stop to walk the 5night/4day Green Gully Track. Enjoyed the walk along the beach (not the nude males playing with themselves!) and found parts of the geocaches. Enjoyed the road trip with all its scenery, towns, beaches and wildlife. TFTC
Found remainants of the cache base but no container (CO has allowed a found log considering photo identification of remains of cache). TFTC
We picked this one up on our Brizzy to Victoria road trip. The coastline is beautiful and even though we've encountered some rain, the alk has been lovely. No problems in finding the cache. All is good at GZ. TFTC LHBfans
Made it more difficult by not reading all the description, misinterpreting the hint and a previous log, but it's really easy.
Quick easy find along a lovely walk. Easy without being obvious to muggles. Love it! TFTC
a toughy for this novice.....but finally found thanks LHBfans….. the 7up seemed to help....probably the world's best geocache position.....whales leapt for joy when they knew I had found my geocache
