Came by here with friends on a cache day out. Couldn't lay hands on this one as a previous finder. Needs a check up from owner.
Found the ship's graveyard found the cache. Not sure if it is exactly where it's supposed to be though. TFTC
Another great find on a geocaching trip around the area.
Found after a short search. It's still there!
Thanks for putting up this cache and making my visit fun.

A lovely walk to pretty spot. Searching and checking logs produced only a . TFTC and a new spot
Took us probably 30 mins to find this one or maybe an hour?? It's not a magnetic one do don't bother looking at the information display although the cache is only within one feet around the 'silver'. TFTC.

Couldn't find this one last night, read recent logs and apparantly the location is off and it led us to a bush. Might have to go during the day for this one as its tucked away from muggles.
Gps was off a bit, but used my head previous logs to eventually find it. Log is wet, no pencil. Daughter left a small goody
No pelicans here today, but didn't know this historical spot existed.
Wandered around for a bit and wondered where the cache could be ... so many places it could be ... had a look back over some previous logs, and just when we were about to give up, I spotted it!
A tricky hide .... the think silver helped.

Yes. Look to your left and to your right.a bit of of the coordinates though.tftc
I saw some pelicans across the waters as I sat in the theatre
They didn't move !!
Probably because they are made of metal ??
No caches seen
Search not wide enough methinks !!

After a little searching and a clue from previous logs, we eventually found the prize. TFTC!! #410
First dad found it and he said look around and I found it and here's a clue what's your favorite side right or left?
A quick find.
Replaced the log and placed log into a small plastic bag.
Hopefully this will keep the log dry. TFTC

What a nice spot to enjoy this glorious spring weather, thanks for the hide.
Nice hide, GPS had us atleast 10 mtrs off in a bush. Once we read the previous logs we had a better idea.
Log needs replacing.

It was very nice! Found it with my daughter Chloe, we left a loom band needs new log book!
A bit easier to find during the day! Added a "twinkle" to the container. Found with aaloveshernieces. TFTC
Might as well have a quick look while we were here. Discovered curry plant, some nice samphires, plenty of salt bush, and mangroves slowly growing back. Plus a pelican out on the post. Good to see.
Log was wet

Found it with no worries. It is in an ideal hiding spot away from Muggles. The log book is in need of replacing due to being damp. TFTC
Out today doing some caches in between the showers. A quick find as it was out in the open. Replaced as found with a little bark over it to protect it more, as the log is very damp. Not sure if it’s in the right location, if some people are looking in the bushes? Managed to get some ink on to it! TNLN SL Thanks for the cache.
Started searching for this one at dusk but in all the wrong places. GPS and iPhone both had us 7 metres away from eventual find. The little monkey yelped her famous "found it" and mum got her hand out of a potential hiding spot quick smart. Geez. Should have known better .... Thanks for a beaut spot never visited before.
Happily this was a quick find given the number of places the cache could have been located.

Found with vj187. A beautiful spot. Thank you for bringing us to it Nightmare4000.
No-one around today, so it was a quick read of the information board, a gander at the shipwrecks and the awesome view, and a subtle retrieval of the nicely hidden container. Thanks for the cache Nightmare4000!
Fantastic spot with wrecks visible due to low tide. But alas no luck today at finding cache. A few locals wondering around so didn't want to hang around looking in plants for too long.
Mr Tardis had an evening in Semaphore and swung past to nab this one.
Such a great location that I wouldn't have known about if not for caching. I found the cache in the first place I looked - don't you just love it when that happens?
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache Nightmare4000.

Had to fight the undergrowth to find the cache and to get a chance to photograph the wreck & a single pelican.
Dropped geoson off at soccer practice then went to find a couple of caches, this one took longer to find than it should have! Inspected all the silver places but it certainly was hidden!

One solitary pelican doing the rounds but the tide was out exposing one of the wrecks, interesting spot quick find TFTC
Christmas Adelaide 2013. Today was a full day spent caching with Team Seedsman out to Outer harbour and back to the North east ion the after noon. I visited a few spots I have seen before and plenty of new spots. I even found an old DNF I had been waiting to get for many years, but there are a few new ones. Thanks.

A tricky one. But alas we conquered without pelicans. A great hide and a fabulous spot.
Nearly gave up on this one, but one last look and think and we found it!! Left a wiggle clip. Great view but no pelicans spotted today. TFTC
A quick find after reading the logs.
Found with the x-trailers.
No pelicans in sight today but the skies were clear and the air was warm.
Took trackables to visit.

With a spare 24 hours in Adelaide I grabbed a hire car and went caching. What else was I to do!
An interesting little spot here.

Did during dusk, and didn't take one of my torches, so search was less then successful. Went back to the car and got a torch, still no joy. Re-read the description and hint, looked about and tried another place, joy. So my first night cache for the evening.
Storm Clouds with lightning coming, oh great.

Archaeological Treasures had us interested - then there were the ants - then there was the cache !
Signed the log as we sat on the amphitheatre and had morning lunch (and watched a lone pelican) . This would be a peaceful spot, if not for the trains [B)]. TNLNSL.
Thanks again Nightmare4000.

Not really a quick find..... the ants were everywhere. After the last persone's DNF, I had a half hearted look. A full hearted look with have you a cache.
Clear skies and thanks to Nightmare4000 from TeamAstro.

Sat and watched the trains pass as I let the GPS settle and looked in and under every prickly bush within 12m radius to no avail. Felt very conspicuous with all those windows visible, and they probably wondered why I was searching thru' soursobs and prickly bushes while dodging bees!!! If it is in or under a bush I am not playing, but if it was placed somewhere strategically you have done a good job hiding it! Missing?
We were on our way to the International Geocaching Day Event and made an afternoon of it. Well it started out as an afternoon but ended up going late into the evening. This time Dr Owl and brisal5 joined us on a very pleasant caching outing.
brisal5 reminded us that we had once got a DNF on a nearby cache, so we wanted to give this one a go. Thankfully this time the cache was quickly located. TFTC Nightmare4000.

Found on the slow way to the Geocaching event. Once the team of Brisal5 and Aussie M&M had found their way into the rabbit warren, Brisal5 informed them of a nearby cache that wasn’t on their wish list. Mrs M: “There’s no hint.” Mr M: “None needed.” Owl just admired the view.
Day 17 in a row for 31 days of caching in August. . Off to the International Geocaching Event with Aussie M&M and Dr. Owl. Left 3 hours early to cache along the way. . Glad this one if off the list. Last time in the area was a DNF in the mangrove walk. Whilst I looked for a hint Mr. M found the cache. Thanks Nightmare4000. Won't be back in here in a hurry.
It took a while to find it because I looked in the wrong place. It serves me right for assuming.
Thanks Nightmare4000 for the cache

Found in the company of Dad (mtbikeroz) on a cold wet night out caching in an area we both hadn't cleared out. The cub looked here and there and walked away, I saw it.
