I committed to a day of caching in Sanctuary Point, Vincentia and Huskisson. Ended up finding two-dozen caches with only one DNF! Very happy to have had a successful day down here. Thanks to all the Cache Owners for their contributions to this recreational activity.

A stealthy find here.
Thanks For The Cache!

No luck here.

After a string of DNF's in the last few months, I was hoping the Cache Owner could check up on this one.
 
18-Mar-20
This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.
 
14-Mar-20
Wow don’t believe I overlooked any spot for possible hide. Went back three time before getting into my car. Still couldn’t find it. Perhaps it is somewhere I don’t fancy putting my fingers!
 
13-Mar-20

Nice spot, but no cache to be found.
Hope we hv more joy finding check points in tomorrow’s race
 
26-Feb-20
We had a fairly thorough look around here. Even had a PAF. However, the cache was too well hidden for us. TFTH
 
24-Jan-20
Clever hide
 
22-Jan-20
Looked around for a while, nowhere to find. Coordinates are at the grave, but text says it’s not. Confusing and frustrating not to find it
 
28-Dec-19
Had three goes at this one and had the same people outside their caravan seeing my every move. Well, this morning was no different. I simply gave up but spotted it as I walked away. Phew!
 
07-Dec-19
Sneaky hide. TFTC
 
05-Dec-19
Reading all the logs, I was afraid this might end up as a not found, but I was lucky! So sad, such a young boy - my sons are aged 21 and 24.
 
04-Dec-19
Sorry but if the cache isn't where it says it's not why put gz in that very spot.
 
30-Nov-19
Was hard as there were a lot of people around but good spot!
 
25-Nov-19
Took a bit longer, cause the coords didn’t fit pretty good, but could manage it in the afternoon with the help of @Sandra.
TFTC.

Staying at the neighboring caravan park, my cabin was about 50m away. Still took me awhile, the hint is useless and the picture of cache container is misleading. Still, this blind catcher managed to find it and kept the streak alive
 
04-Aug-19
Hiding in plain sight, if you ditch the gps and trust your geosenses. A lonely grave, even though next to a rather busy walk/cycleway. TFTC Neilbear

This year our plan was to spend our "summer vaction" in Australia.
So arriving on the 7th November we took over the campervan and started our tour from Sydney to Adelaine. On that tour we found a lot of caches. This was one of it.

Thank's a lot to all CO's that placed and maintain the caches here in "Down Under".

#3964 7th for today

Well it's ANZAC Day, so what better way to celebrate than with some geocaching. I didn't have anything planned, so I gave it some thought & decided I'd like to see the coast, so I headed out to Huskisson area on Jervis Bay. It was an absolutely perfect summer's day, pity it's well into autumn. Lots of people swimming, but being school holidays, there were lots of muggles about.

I am amazed this cache is still here given the number of muggles overlooking gz.

Thanks to the COs: Neilbear
