This NTSBPT trail was close to our camping, thus a good walk to see the area. The caches do need some CO attention here and there.

Thanks subi-two for the cache. It’s #1175 for us. We found your cache on 15 February 2020. Enjoying the loop.
Find #500! Heading out of town after a great week holidaying at Fingal Bay. Despite the rain to say we were pleased to be able to get out and grab a couple of caches to bring my total to 500. I think I hit 200 or 250 here at Shoal bay a couple of years ago, so nice to be back here looking again!
Up at Shoal Bay for a weekend getaway. Decided to do the complete series over 2 days. Found with GeoJess and patient Muggle Wife. TFTC!

Today i take a walk on this trail . The flies are drives me to fly into a frenzy. Thanks for showing this park. TftC
Spending a few days in the area, took on this walk to find this series, shame that some have been archieved. Quick find, stamped log and replaced. Thanks to CO
TFTC,
In the Bay for 3 nights with Nana nel and undertook what is left of this trail today. We had 3 DNF's and there are a lot already archived.
Not enough information available to complete the final so after collecting all we could, we contacted Team MavEtJu who gathered all the information 10.07.2016 to form a partnership so that we could all log the final. Due to the tides, he couldn't reach GZ then and so it was agreed that we would add his name when we were there.
I will use another caching site to create a way for others to reach a conclusion, fave fun finding my trail to the end.
Enjoyed a great walk and visited the final on 07.11.2019

A lovely weekend away in Shoal Bay
There’s no better way to explore than stretching the legs to go caching.
Log was full so we added a blank sheet of paper

After trying a few caches of this series but giving up due to having to venturing to the bush and seeing unpleasant objects, we finally got an easy one! TFTC
Away for work And had a big week of travel starting in Melbourne, up to Townsville, back to Brisbane and Newcastle today and a flight back to Mel this evening. With all the racing around and eating crap food I felt like Mr Blobby!
Anyway my visits for the day were done and I had a couple of hours to kill, looked on that map and saw the series at Nelson Bay. I have fond memories of this place from 15 years ago when I arrived as a backpacker. Arrived at my starting point, checked the map and gave my self a max of 90min before racing back to the airport. Off I ran and the series was perfect, guessing I did around about 7km and maybe 20 somethink finds. Still need to have a count. A number of dnf’s too but with a time restriction there was. No time to play about.
The perfect series for a run and I’m feeling better now. Thanks for the fun!

Completed this series with Beary_Unicorns early Sunday morning. Tried to get it all done before the temperature became too hot, but no luck. Visited trackables, tftc.
From what I saw of this area, it is a lovely location for a series of caches. However the entire area could use some TLC for the council to clean up the rubbish and some TLC from the CO to remove all the wet soggy old logs from the old looking containers.
This was my first find of the day and my GPS was saying gz was right in the middle of the trail. It took a few searches on both sides of the trail before making the find. At least now I know what I am looking for.
Thanks for the cache subi-two

While holidays visiting Nelson Bay. Saw this trail and will start it. Don‘t know how fare I will get... we will see 
Here I had to search a while until I found. The picture helped a bit but the cache is hidden different.
Besten Dank!
Thanks for the Cache and greets from Switzerland!

Found easy find no bark on it so we put bark on it because that's what the hint said
Our etrex keptsending us to the wrong side of the road. Eventually we ignored it and made the find. TFTC
Found it today with my friend, TeamIndiJ02. Very nice walk, we found 25 caches!

Find #2257-2281
It's unclear why we haven't done this trail up until now... But this year, with school holiday on, and hiddeb creatures to find, a 35 cache power trail became very appealing. We did the trail with a new cacher TeamIndiJ02, we logged all finds as 737/Indi. We had a great walk through the national park today, managing 24 on the PT itself. The trail needs maintenance, the list of missing caches is lengthening, and the logs are pretty scrappy these days. Thanks for your efforts in setting it up....
Oliver found this after the rest of us looked past it... we're on a roll!

Today I took on this trail on my mountain bike,I had a great time exploring around the area,The unexpected hills hurt at times but the ride back down them was alot of fun.
The day was a success with only a few DNFs towards the tail end.
Thanks for putting this great series together

Got up early to tackle this series while staying in Shoal Bay at the end of our holiday fromUK. Good hints and a lovely varied walk. Thanks for settling the series.
In town with Bluewattle for a Re-Union and thought we'd do this power trail during our free time. Nice quick find for us here today.

I found what appeared to be two separate caches but no desernable information as to which was the right one. Signed log books in both and left trackable in the black one.

After returning and re-reading the first case notes I discerned that it was the green one that is the original my bad.
This has got to be one of the nicest areas to go geocaching in. We have friends living nearby so we were very happy to see this trail with a great selection of caches. It was not too hot so we trecked the ups and downs and even saw 2 dolphins frolicking in the shallows as we continued with our cache hunt. There were a couple in the series that we think are missing. Thanks to subi-two for placement of this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.
