Had no luck with this one today, a lovely lady who lives across the road saw me searching and came to say hello, she advised me where the cache used to be and said it has now gone missing. Hopefully will be replaced soon.
Bushes were very overgrown where we thought it was and didn’t get a chance to look properly
Went all over the only place it could be, appears someone has been pulling at the electrical cable, please don’t. Would appreciate a message if it’s found, cheers!
With rain coming later today we decided to range north of PL with iluvtrekking to grab some caches. Quick find. Log sheet has dried out. Thanks Geo-Ambos
Another cache found with richlink.
Thank you so much to all the CO’s who have placed and maintained caches for the enjoyment of all.

Port Lincoln to Adelaide road trip.
Day One: Port Lincoln to Cleve.
The East Coast has barely even started drying out but conditions here are perfect.
Roads aren’t busy either.
Thanks to all the COs for making the Eyre Peninsula a great caching destination.
An old favourite, these make for a very quick find now.
Thanks Geo-Ambos.

So many caches, so little time.
On our last afternoon in the Port Lincoln area, we decided to drive north and visit Tumby Bay. Another find made! TFTC

Kids had a ball on the playground while we found the cache. A few options here, but experience led us to the right place. TFTC.
Tweety2 & her geokid had this one located by the time I had geobaby out the car and arrived at GZ. A great cache and always a winner at a playground. Will take longer to leave this one than find it. TFTC!
We left Port Lincoln this morning and went wandering north with ilook4geo, picking up some of the caches along the way. Each found log was signed with two more names to mark our visit. Thank you Geo-Ambos for placing this cache for us to find.
On the road with goinplaces2 and heading toward Tumby Bay. Having a nice slow day with just a few caches. Found what we wanted, signed the logs, all were replaced. Job done! TFTC.
TFTC. Well done but needs a decent log as all little pieces fall out once opened
TFTC. Put wrong detail on previous post. Found it ok but as per previous post needs decent log
Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty at 1030am. I like this kind of cache; it suits the hide. TFTC
While on our honeymoon we spent the day caching and walking around Tumby Bay. Great spot for fish and chips for lunch at the beach and walking around the very picturesque scenery along the shoreline tracks, along some beaches and around the point near the island. We picked up the caches on the north road on the way out of town to Port Lincoln. TFTC
TFTC. Hopefully the hint that we got is the right one as a replacement log was there.
Plus Wolly got his head stuck in the tree!
Happy caching and safe travels!

A nice quick find. Kids played on the park, 2SG distracted and we made a quick find having seen these before. TFTC
Another quick find with spot on coordinates. Thank you for the placement of this cache Geo-Ambos find number 7361 at 15 February 2021 2:47 pm

A 2 week tour of the West Coast started in Streaky Bay, then to Coffin Bay, then to Tumby Bay and finally a couple of days in Whyalla.
All caches were in good condition unless I've posted a Needs Maintenance log.
A windy day as we toured the back blocks of Tumby Bay.

This weekend, I joined gridge98 on a trip to Eyre Peninsula, primarily visiting Port Lincoln and its surroundings. We saw its famous marina full of trawlers, and we also ended up visiting Coffin Bay and enjoyed fresh oysters. A nice weekend with weather, and certainly a great vicinity to see.
Today leaving Whyalla, we headed down the Lincoln Highway, passing through Cowell, Cleve, Arno Bay, Port Neill, and Tumby Bay. Just prior to lunch, we also completed the *Cleve Cleaver* geoart trail. A rather long day of geocaching numbers, but the inland and coastal towns were enjoyable to visit, along with the various picturesque beaches along the way.
It was weird that I ended up finding an old logbook on the ground just near the playground, and so I continued to follow my GPS to GZ, where I came across the cache. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. I ended up adding the older (?) logbook in with the current logbooks. Thanks Geo-Ambos for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Today davidwazza and I made our way from Whyalla to Port Lincoln as part of a weekend away to clean up as much as we could. Today was filled with some good and bad times, plus a few car issues along the way but all in all a great day out and 105 caches found in total.

Aha, we have found a few of these container types now and even gave some at home to put out. Great hude and park. Tftc geosmbos.
Clever. If i had not seen one of these before would probably missed it. Thanks for a great cache.
Daughter Karen had never seen one like this before but found in 10 seconds. Too hot to play on equipment today, probably too old to. TFTC
Such a clever spot! Definately needed the hint! Thank you for the challenge. It took us a while.
Accurate coordinates and a familiar style of hide led to a quick find. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Geo-Ambos for the cache.
Real nice park , similar to the rest o this beaut town
Signed and replaced

Haha nice spot to come to with a Geokid in tow. Quick enough find as well although it could have taken longer if I hadn’t seen this type before. TFTC
Found while staying at the RV park. Log and container both in good condition. TFTC.
Travelling Australia since March 2014 it has been a while since in SA but enjoying this visit greatly.
After a great sleep last night at Carrow Wells, Port Neill which was so friendly with a great deal at the store for Fathers Day and awesome tourist signage around. Today it was moving day to Port Lincoln, but we decided to stopover in Tumby Bay first and have a good explore. What a pretty town, which had a great vibe to it. The sun came out for a good portion of the day too.

Driving through Tumby Bay on a brief visit, this was our first here. Nice area and homes. Sneaky cache, but having seen these before, made an easy find. TFTC
