I didnt find cache, came as close as 4 metres to it. This is a beautiful spot, thanks to the geocache anyway for bringing me here!
 
14-Apr-24
Bunch of us picked up over 100 rocks. No luck.With so many blue dnf logs now, its probably time for a proof of life check from cache owner.
 
03-Apr-24
We must have spent about 45 minutes. Looking for this one. Put a real shift at the rock face today.coords kept pointing to the same spot. Will monitor to see if anyone else has more luck than us. We come down fairly frequently to snorkel with the gray nurse sharks. So we'll definitely be back at some point. Thanks for maintaining the cache.

Spent quite a bit of time looking at different possibilities but no luck today

We spent quite some time searching for this one. In the end, we called it quits, but decided to go and have a look at the swimming hole nearby.It was absolutely at high tide, and the beautiful Rockpool was having its freshwater flush! A lovely location. Despite not finding this one, we still enjoyed the walk and the beautiful views. Thanks Domsky

Well hidden
 
27-Nov-23
We went for a huge walk around the rocks and grass. Any tips for finding it?
 
29-Jul-23
Checked every rock sadly DND will have to come back another time.
 
23-Jun-23
Looked under all the rocks:/
 
17-Mar-23
In the area for checkup so drove in as looked inviting. Took my usual time to find. Should have read the logs but fortunately had a pencil in my bag. Contemplated leaving it. Recalled that there was an AL nearby but when had a look on phone there was no icon. Found app in settings (at home). Thanks.
 
Had a great day snorkelling at Bushrangers Bay! Heaps of fish and even a dozen or so small grey nurse sharks, the kids loved it! Came around to check out the rock pool, it looks good, we'll do it next time.
The pen in the cache didn't work, so photo for proof.

Beautiful spot!
We loaded some cute swaps
 
16-Jan-23
After swimming with some nearby greynurse sharks, I went back to the car and noted that this cache was only 250m away. I checked it out and was happily surprised when the terrain was doable in sandals. I had to look under a few rocks before finally spotting the container. TFTH
 
25-Aug-22
Log wet can't use pen, found with Dad and Luca

Toured the area today for the 1st time. Very cool spot. A few potholes nearly swallowed the little Corolla whole, but we got through and knocked over an AL plus 3 caches. TFTC

Day three of our caching trip and Tankengine, Kittykatch, Joolay and I were on a mission for a couple of caches in particular before heading to the event and then home for the girls, but more caching for Tankengine and I.

We traveled around a lot, but it was fun and we saw some great spots.

This cache: The trek down was ok and the wind and slight rain drop every now and then was not so bad. The cache was found all safe and sound, signed and returned. Tftc!!!
 
04-Dec-21
Log a bit wet but container ok. Lovely spot here and a gorgeous sea breeze is blowing.
Thanks For getting me out and about Jarrod940

Find 295 for the tribe.

Out completing the local AL which brought us near this lovely spot. Visibility was excellent today and you could see well beyond Kiama to the south. A lovely spot.

Cache located fairly quickly by Mrs Roo thanks to great coordinates. Cache and log in good condition. Forgot our swag today so couldn't take the yoyo! Log signed and cache replaced as found.

Not quite the weather for a dip today so will need to come back to test out the rockpool in summer.

Thanks for the cache.

23,807. Found with DARKSIDEDAN and Loci612 during a caching run down to the coast today.

A slightly delayed trip down the coast today where were were rewarded with great weather, lots of caches to find, and in my case some long awaited gaps filled in cache series - some dating back a long time ! Due to domestics it was a later than normal pickup, but it wasn't before long when we started finding caches. This was the next cache on the list today. After a walk and a scramble, what could have been a tricky little cache was thankfully found quite quickly - Yay !! Signed the log, replaced the cache as found, then headed off to the next cache.

Thanks Jarrod940 !!

Wow this cache was hidden incredibly well! Impossible to see without proper investigation that's for sure, I am surprised it doesn't have more DNF's as I was struggling to find it, and was impressed when DSD managed to find it some distance away from where I was searching! Caching in groups is definitely quicker!

Thankful to locate this one, in such a stunning area! Wish there were more caches out here!

Thanks Jarrod

We walked on from a nearby cache to grab this one. The hide was quickly spotted on approach. The contents were a tad damp but the log was nice and dry. This is a nice little spot, perfect for a cache! Thank you
 
05-Sep-20
Great day for caching with mrwhiskers76. Ive lost count on what number cache we are up to. We made our way to gz. We quickly signed the log and swapped some swag. On our way back we picked up some rubbish, the road heading out was a bit bumpy in the celica but we made it. Eventually. Thank you for a great cache!

After claiming a corner around the corner with the newly converted muggle brother we decided to hit this one as well. After a short stroll, which attracted the attention of a nearby fisherman we claimed our smile. TFTC

I learnt to SCUBA dive here, about 20 years ago (not that I would like to admit that). Having been in the area visiting my parents, I thought it a good idea to spend the day at Bass Point enjoying the water and the warmer Autumn day. This one took awhile to find, but after several minutes my partner found the cache whilst I was looking in an entirely wrong direction. TFTC

Found this with my lovely Girl Sarah. She got sneaky and painted a couple of my toes with the nail polish inside. Thanks .

After attending the ICC #12 Event at Barrack Point we decided to look for some caches at Bass Point.
Once near GZ a short search ensued as I spotted and Mrs Aries retrieved. Signed the log and visited some TB's. Such a great area to visit. TFTC Jarrod940.
