Nice one. Easy find. TFTC. Angus the great GeoWestie assisted by grey nomad Carer Lis Brown en route from Bundaberg Qld to Perth WA via all of Tasmania.
Found on 10.02.14. Cache was were it should be but was totally exposed. We left it in its position but slightly covered it. One end of the container has come 'unstuck'. TFTC
A beautiful day for a walk. Headed to Seven Mile Beach to do the rest of the series. Started with this one. Lots of muggles around on the beach, but not near the cache.TFTC. Cache container has been forced open at the incorrect end and now is broken. Not sure how long it will stay together, may need checking.
People everywhere on the beach. Pretended to take photos until we got a chance to make the find. TFTC
Cache found during my stay in Tasmania! Thank you for this discovery

Hot day today, enjoyed easy walk to GZ, lucky not much muggles in beach... Easy to find as hide very well thanks 
#512 for us, found while on a visit to Tassie to support juc_jr#2 as he competes in the Surf Lifesaving Southern States Challenge.
We're not staying with the team, so after arriving about 9:30am, we had a free day while they settled in and did some training. What better thing to do than head out and do some caches and sample a few of the local food treats !
After a nice stroll down the beach, picking up the other two caches nearby, this was to be our last along the 7mile for now. A muggle family was set up on the beach at the end of the ramp, but they were more interested in enjoying the beach and didn't seem interested in my activities.
The GPSr had me on the wrong side of the road, but a quick check soon revealed the hide and I was signing the log.
Then it was over the hill to Lauderdale for a Tassie gourmet lunch by the water.
Thanks for the cache here today JABs !

Thought this was going to be a park and grab cache but we were in the wrong side, both the phone and GPS pointed us in the wrong direction. After eliminating one side the cache was then quickly found.

On holiday from Queensland visiting my home town of Hobart. I was on my way to Seven Mile Beach to do a nice walk and decided to stop on the way and grab this cache. I found it with no difficulty, beautiful spot down here. TFTC.
Today was earmarked for the Roches Beach To Seven Mile Beach series.
This was found easily and there were paddlers about. Thanks JABs.

Stayed at 7 Mile Beach and decided to knock a few caches off! thanks Tasmania.TFTC found with the berts
TFTCPeople absolutely everywhere on the beach (it being a hot, sunny day), so I had to pick my moments both for the grab and replace.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Having failed to find this one a few days ago I called again this evening to have another look.
This time it was a quick look round GZ and i soon had the cache in hand and i still had time to have a walk along the beach as the sun was going down, not many people about bar the odd dog walkers and the like to bother me which is always nice.
Thanks for the cache.

Samboychips and I had a great trot around the grassy knoll. Ran out of time so didn't quite finish.
After checking down one fence line, we swapped to the other side and found the cache immediately. Another great JABs hide. Now for the beach and the swim. TFTC.
Found after a quick look around. And a good walk to Roaches Beach and back. TFTC!
Whilst Mrs y'tassie went to the second day of her embroidery workshop, Mr y'stassie and hobbling geodaughter went to Seven Mile Beach to look for this cache. Since our previous unsuccessful visit, the cache owner had checked on the cache and updated the coordinates - thanks JABs, much appreciated This time the cache was a quick find, in a location that we had serached previously. The cache and it's contents were in good condition. TFTC JABs and for the enjoyable series from the Lauderdale Yacht Club to Seven Mile Beach.

We had found some caches in this area in the past but today was our first opportunity to walk the completed length of the trail from the Lauderdale Yacht Club to Seven Mile Beach. Despite the very strong winds, it was a very enjoyable walk with magnificent views along the way. We were impressed with the track upgrade work being undertaken. When finished, the track will be even better.
We searched the area very thoroughly over a period of about 30 minutes. We widened the search area to a radius of about 15m from GZ but we didn't see any evidence of the cache. This one definitely needs checking. Thanks JABs.

Called at this one on the way home from work and after 15 minutes gave up as we couldnt find it.
Had a really good look around all the thing matching the hint, but no geocache found today - the GPSr seemed to bounce around a bit too, so maybe that was the problem? 
Hopefully it's still there, to be found another day - thanks anyway, JABs !

I too couldn't find this one even with the clue!! Noticed Gooseandeggs had been around this new series today too and they haven't logged it either!!!!
DNF.
I have walked this path numerous times before, and stopped for picnics on the small beach part-way around. Never before have I stopped so often! I started at the Seven Mile Beach end, but seeing that gooseandegg had already visited and claimed FTF I decided to head around and try my luck from the Roches Beach End. Here both gooseandegg and cinmi16 had visited before me. I headed along to the end of Kirra Rd and down the hill to find that only cinmi16 was ahead. I made a brisk pace along the path and overtook her whilst she was either looking for a cache or logging a find. She didn't notice me pass, so I managed to log four FTFs ahead of her before she called upon seeing my log. We had a quick chat before she continued north and I headed south to log the rest of the caches. I couldn't find GC4NRJE "Seven Mile Beach Paddle ?", and hear that neither gooseandegg nor cinmi16 were able to find this one either.

We got here abut 9.40am but could not find cache. We were unsure whether logging a FNTF (first not to find) was acceptable. Told JABs this afternoon and he said it ws fine so here is our did not find log.
We made sure from our logs it was obvious we were not going to do the whole track so others were aware that we were not out there to clean them all up.
