Sorry for the delay. The area has undergone some renovation by council. Cache should be up and running in the next few weeks
I have purchased a new micro cache holder. Will install in place in the next 2 weeks.
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!

I am the second cacher to sign the new log today. Visiting from Canberra. Cute little cache thank you Neilbear for placing and maintaining.
Unfortunately the cache has been muggled.
The metal tree protectors have been removed and the cache taken with them.
A new cache will be in place very soon. Apologies to those ho searched and did not find.

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.

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!
Nice spot, but no cache to be found.
Hope we hv more joy finding check points in tomorrow’s race
We had a fairly thorough look around here. Even had a PAF. However, the cache was too well hidden for us. TFTH
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
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!
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.
Took a bit longer, cause the coords didn’t fit pretty good, but could manage it in the afternoon with the help of @Sandra.

Je l’ai trouvé avec mon papa, un beau souvenir à ramener en France ! I found it with my dad, before go home In Paris !
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
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 took way longer than necessary. High muggle percentage. I’m embarrassed to say we still don’t get the clue. Found with Meg and Max. Tftc
Found a few weeks ago but forgot to log. Very lucky we were staying in caravan site right next to this, 10m from our door!
Lili ran away when she saw the grave thanks for hiding this cache here! So much fun
Nice walk on a beautiful day. Lovely Callala Bay!
Thank you.

Finally for this one yesterday. Found it ages ago bit didnt have a pen on me so didnt log the find. Then everytime i walked past there was always muggle traffic. Then signed the log so can finally see that smilie.
Have checked on cache this morning. Replaced the soggy remains of the logs with waterproof logs in plastic bag. Thank you to all. . Lots of muggles about.
Quick find and retrieve even with muggles only mtrs away. One of the muggles have me some bread to feed the friendly rainbow lorikeets who sat on my hand to eat it.

Located it yesterday going back from pub, but no pen. No problem though as we knew we would be passing again on our way to coffee. Must have been lonely in 1900.
Staying in a lovely Airbnb nearby, so we walked down the hill to our closest beach and found this little cache. Log full, but managed. To squeeze in. TFTC
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".

Found cache on 2.10.18 at 3:30pm. Very windy and cold day in Huskisson. Enjoying our holiday to Culburra Beach. From Bendigo VIC.
Found what a spot i walk past it almost every weekend never to see it put it back where i found it
What a beautiful area on a sunny day. Third GZ for the day, had to be sneaky because of all the muggles. TFTC. Photo because we had me pen.
What an amazing spot with equally amazing history! I love caches with history, fav point from me!!!!
Took a trackable and left one!!
Thank you!!

Except for the wind the walk was really lovely with beautiful views across the bay. Truly is a wonderful country. No muggles, quick find and sign. Kutgw
Found @ 12:23pm with hccatcher11415, Shadow! and Goo67
I'm aiming to complete my geocaching calendar and this date was the fourth of five I needed to cross off for May.
I had run past this spot on Saturday doing the Huskisson parkrun without noticing the grave.
Thanks Neilbear

Heute kamen wir hier her um Delfine zu sehen und wurden nicht enttäuscht.
Das Grab des unglücklichen Seemanns liegt fast neben unserem Stellplatz am Camping.
Es war eineinfacher Fund. Danke für die schnell verdienten 2.5 D Punkte.

#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

Many muggles on there morning walk and campers cooking breakfast! Nice simple find thanks to the hint
We were staying in the park so thought we should go and get this one. Wouldn’t have found this interesting spot otherwise. Thanks
Up just after sunup - went to look at this while waiting for the cafes to open for brekky. A few joggers and walkers and one person in the campsite having her breakfast. Beautiful time of day to be up here. TFTC
