A bit of a challenge getting to GZ with my groin injury. TFTC
 
02-Apr-18
And that ends the Easter escapade. Staying just south of here in a holiday letting. Bit of a clamber up the slippery vegetation but I managed not to soil myself (too much). Lovely bit of coastline, pity about the Harleys on Lawrence Hargrave Drive
 
26-Jan-18
As others have said, the clue gives it away. Aside from that this is a lovely little beach

05-Mar-17
Out today with some fellow geocachers Brewmaker and Delloro to attend the annual GeoTrek and finding some other caches along the way.
Parked nearby and then a short walk along the beach to the cache. Passed some other cachers and muggles along the way. Brewmaker walked up for a quick find. Signed the log and replaced the cache as found. TFTC Big Grin
 
05-Mar-17
Picked up as part of our Geotrek adventure today, not the first finders today, and probably not the last!

TFTC
 
05-Mar-17
Found while participating in a Geotrek event today. A bit slippery the last couple of metres at GZ. Nicely concealed, TNLN thanks.
 
05-Mar-17
On our way to the Geotrek with Mikev1 & delloro, we stopped to find this one and saw a couple of other geocachers returning from GZ. Some muggles cleaning up the beach stopped us to ask why everyone was heading up the beach. MV1 explained so maybe there might be some new recruits? Easy find given there is a pen tucked in the rock wall near the cache! TFTC
 
05-Mar-17
5/3/17. 11:52 AM. Cache #4821.
12th of 15 finds for the day.

GEOTREK 2017 route took us through Campbelltown, Bradbury, St Helens Park, Gilead, Appin, Cataract, Bulli, Thirroul, Austinmer, Coledale, Wombarra, Scarborough, Clifton, Coalcliff to finish at Stanwell Park. Grabbed caches at most of these locations and finished the day with a CITO in Putney!

For this leg of GEOTREK, **bella at waggy** and I were heading north up Lawrence Hargrave Drive and picking up a few of the "Suburbs of Wollongong" series. Came here after 'Coledale'. Crossed the sand towards GZ just as light rain started to fall. The GZ site was rather slippery, but b@w made it up first and volunteered on the signing job. Once again we noticed we were closely following **jkcourtz**.

We also noticed as we headed back to the car that **delloro**, **Brewmaker** & **Mikev1** were still hot on our heels, as they had been at 'Coledale'. GEOTREK then took us to waypoints at the Clifton School of the Arts and the Sea Cliff Bridge. I took the opportunity to get the "Illawarra Escarpment Sea Cliffs" earth cache, though b@w had already found it. TFTC.

04-Nov-16
Oh its Friday already and time to head south to work, and a spot of caching.

A beautiful morning with the waves washing in as I made my way GZ'wards. GPSr decided to lock up on approach to GZ so while I rebooted it I decided to make the find before the GPSr became "live" again. And yes I did find it. Signed the log with my own special pen. TFTC Hoojar.

We're in town from Canberra as our church is holding its annual workers' conference at Stanwell Tops. We had some free time and decided to find a beach and play French Horn there. Expected to find some geocaches nearby, so we came over here and scrambled to get it. Thanks for the cache.

Another suburb, and another cache. This one included a very nice walk on the windy beach. I really appreciated the view from there, and after a little scrambling in the last few meters, the cache was in hand. Could there be an easier way from the lawn? Didn't go to find out, though, I preferred the beach walk. TFTC!
 
07-Nov-15
The good thing about heavy rain is it ensured the beach was void of muggles, even on a Saturday afternoon, making for a hassle-free find. TFTC Hoojar.

Nice hide.... BYOP.
 
21-Aug-14
I had joined forces with Team Canary for a day of caching on the coast.
Since the Canaries had already found this one, they had a lunch break while I went ahead plunder and find treasures. Never mind the demon dog prancing about below, discouraging me from leaving the hiding place.
Thanks for the cache

Having arrived at the Corrimal Beach caravan park today with DiMorgan and husband Bill we got settled and had a cuppa after our taxing trip from the north to the south side of Sydney. Not sure we took the right route. This afternoon we headed off to enjoy the coastal drive and do a few caches. What beautiful scenery. This one gets a fav point. Thanks to Hoojar
 
21-Feb-14
After settling into the caravan park we headed out to find a few caches. We wanted to head north to see the cliff bridge as we have seen it so many times on tele & it looks so spectacular.
Another suburb that we had never heard of, that we now know.
Thanks Hoojar for another great location
