A slight detour on the way to a work away day took me to a new location and a quick cache find. Once upon a time this type of cache would've stumped me, but at this point, I managed to quickly work it out. All in good condition, signed and returned. Thanks n0w0rries.

A sneaky little hide, I liked it
 
30-Dec-23
Mrs Riddell made the quick find here today.Despite the sun, it was very windy and choppy waves were pounding the coast line. No muggle fishermen today!We quickly darted back to the protection of the car.TFTC

We walked past this one a couple of times before geoP made the find. TNLN SL TFTC
 
Almost missed this one, such a clever hide. Phone was leading me away by a few metres, thankfully no one fishing here today in this beautiful spot, allowing a proper hunt.Favourite for sure! All nice & dry.Eloise at the Plaza

A favourite for the location. Thanks for bringing me to this hidden gem. I took loads of photos for my fishing-obsessed middle son. What I wouldn't give to own one of these shacks! I wandered past the front of the sheds and found a lovely couple relaxing with absolute ocean views. It was just idyllic. He was playing the guitar, she was reading and the dog was enjoying the gentle sea breeze. How lucky are they?!

I found the cache quite quickly as I've recently hidden a cache up in the Dandenongs utilising this same structure.
 
03-Jul-23
I had been looking at this cache for a while, so when a Sunday drive was suggested, I knew where I wanted to go. I have never been to this area, even though it is not far from home, and it is a really delightful spot. The cache had me flummoxed for a while, but persistence paid off and eventually I did the right thing to reveal this cleverly hidden chap. I picked up a TB to move on.

On our way home from today's Rippleside CITO, we detoured so n0w0rries could perform maintenance on a couple of his hides.

Of course, the deal is that I get to do the searching while he stands back and laughs.

Not much more than a chuckle, this time, as I guessed the clever hiding spot.

Thanks, n0w0rries +wife.

Cache check - All good here.
 
03-Apr-23
Arrived from Tassie we explored this area and found your cache along the way.

Well this was a hard one to find, took some time to unearth this cache. Where do you find a regular cache here!! After a long search Mr "T" had that "ahah" moment and made the find, well donen0w0rries +wife. Cache and contents were in good condition. Left 2 TBs.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment.


 
30-Mar-23
Accurate coords led to a quick find in the last place I looked! Container all good.

The sea was calm though there was some slight mist.

Found out and about on the 2023 trip for the Rutherglen Mega. Thanks to n0w0rries and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]
 
30-Jan-23
Looked high and low, could not locate. There is earth works happening here maybe it's been moved or classic cache blindness as the other half of Simber is not here.
 
02-Jan-23
What a clever hide! TFTC
 
08-Dec-22
Windy and cold evening with the mother. TFTC
 
01-Dec-22
Forgot to log yesterday. Out with the daughter and granddaughter. Heading home after great lunch at Wyndham Harbour, daughter suggested a cache whilst kids asleep in the car...love moments like that. Her younger eyes found the cache quickly...I must have taught her well. TFTC,great spot!

Spent the day at the rose garden then had lunch at the harbour.
Quick find on the way home, such a beautiful quiet spot

First cache in a while, TFTC!
 
23-Oct-22
Wow that was so well hidden and I loved coming out here. Worthy of a fav point
 
17-Oct-22
In the area for work this morning and had some time up my sleeve to collect a few caches that I have either had the coordinates saved for sometime or find some that I have had my eyes on for a while.

I have never been to this area before, heck I didn't even know it was a thing and now I want to live here. The sun was out and the water was still... HOW GOOD!!! Cache is in good condition and ready for it's next visitor Smile

Thanks n0w0rries +wife for bringing me here!!
 
03-Jul-22
We had been checking out a new Adventure Lab and a few other caches in Melbourne. On the way home, we decided to pick up a selected few caches to complete a few more degrees of our 360 degrees from home.

We didn't realise this area even existed. I wonder who owns all these little huts along this beach.

We started looking when we arrived at GZ and the GPS was playing up so we checked out all levels.

We were about to give up and then we noticed something that looked a little different.

There it was the tricky little blighter.

The cache is in great condition. Thank you for this cache n0w0rries +wife.
 
16-Jun-22
What a stunning spot. Clear water and great watery views. Clever hide and quickly located as its exactly where it’s meant to be, T4TC
 
02-Jun-22
Great out of the way hiding spot with a view. Tftc
 
14-May-22
After having found the nearby multi I decided to have a crack at this proximate, regular sized cache. Fortunately no one was fishing and the nearest car was parked with no visibility to GZ. After a quick search in various corners I found the item which was obscuring the cache and moved it out of the way a little. Hey presto the cache was revealed!
 
09-May-22
What a lovely spot on a beautiful day. Found the cache on the second sweep, nicely tucked away. I would never have thought to come here. Tftc.
 
30-Apr-22
Out on my own today after on my way back from caring for my sister. Never been to this beach front before and amazed how many fishing shacks there are. Nicely placed hide here and glad to see another place I haven't been to before. You do get around n0wo0rries. Thanks for bringing me here.
 
02-Apr-22
*Found on the 2 Apr 2022 @ 10:00 pm.*
*Cache find # 12654.*

After finding Rod down the road and as we were passing by this we had to stop for a look.
I was able to park closeby to GZ and then the search was one while the CO was watching on.
I made my way along and then the hide became a bit more obvious, with a bit of this and a bit of that the cache was discovered and the log was stamped.

**Thanks to n0w0rries for placing this cache.**
 
02-Apr-22
Very well hidden sneaky cache! We looked in the wrong area for a while. Saw a fishing line... YES! Nope... moved around IS THAT IT? No just rubbish... eventually Mr H had an idea that paid off!
 
17-Mar-22
Just got the ROD, so I thought I’d get it’s companion. Nice hide here. I trust HOOKS, LINE and BAIT are forthcoming so I can drop by here again.

Thanks for bringing me to this spot n0w0rries.
 
07-Mar-22
Yep..

Would you believe this was the last day of summer. TFTC

02-Jan-22
Spiffy- is always up for my crazy plans of caching and today I wanted to try the T5 D5 Trad in Werribee. So off we went with my geopartner to hunt in the region near to this.

A random choice of cache purely as it was the only non smiley nearby. A bit of a hunt then found.

Thanks to n0w0rries +wife for the placement and fun.
 
02-Jan-22
Found at 2:31 pm.
Another short kayak trip was planned today with Fleabag- and it was quite pleasant weather which was nice after a couple of hot days. After a couple of caches of the kayak we then just freestyled around a bit looking for whatever we came across.
Only one other car here on arrival. no muggles to be seen though. After a short search the secret location was found.
Thanks n0w0rries for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.
 
29-Dec-21
Pleased to find this well concealed container after lucking out on several caches in Point Cook.
It was dark with a stiff rather cool breeze blowing by the time I got here.
Found after a few minutes of searching.
TFTC n0w0rries
 
04-Dec-21
Quick stop by here after a Zoo visit with the kids. Now that's a cheeky hide if I've ever seen one, good thing I know the CO is a cheeky fella. Thanks for the hide here, winds coming right through!
 
13-Nov-21
Find number 9864 at 12:27:37 pm on Saturday the 13 November 2021
Came over to Hoppers Crossing to go to the "Detox Your House" droppoff day to dump some old fuel, paint and chemicals and whilst I'm here, maybe a cache or two.
On my way home now, in a round about fashion Smile
Nice quick find.
**Thanks for placing this cache n0w0rries**

Tftc. Good hide
 
13-Jun-21
Today is just a great day.

Need to head to the farm to buy some eggs.

Maybe clean up a cache that's been on my radar for awhile.

I used to live down here and walk to this spot often.

Few people are enjoying the sun today.

Had an idea on the hide but still made harder work on it than needed.

Got there eventually.

Left a TB in this nice hide.

Fav from me for spot and hide.

TFTC Smile
 
12-Jun-21
Would never have found it if I wasn't with someone who had got it before! A big huntsman sitting next to it, but was able to get the cache!
 
15-Apr-21
As we parked near GZ we had to chuckle at how far things had to go around here to get that massive warning sign! A clever placement for this container and we made sure it was safely tucked away for the next finder. TFTC
 
14-Feb-21
Nice, a cheeky cache if I've ever seen one.
 
10-Feb-21
Good hide TFTC ️

Took a few minutes but eventually we found the well hidden cache. It was a little breezy here today on this warm day. All is well with the cache. TFTC
 
07-Jan-21
Great find, enjoying out first day out! Nice day for it.
 
26-Dec-20
Thanks for the hide! Was a little tricky but we got there in the end
 
26-Nov-20
We were in the area today doing the nearby Labcache and just couldn’t resist ‘tackling’ this trad especially when we saw who the CO was.With it being a lovely afternoon for fishing we hoped we wouldn’t be muggled out but as luck would have it we had the place to ourselves.
Checking the obvious places the cleverly hidden cache was found after a few minutes of searching.
Thanks n0w0rries for the placement.
 
16-Nov-20
This is round two for us finding this cache. The first time there were muggles here. Came back again today and luckily it was free from prying eyes. Log is in good condition and was a fun one to find.
 
31-Oct-20
All good here
 
31-Oct-20
With the easing of restrictions, it is time to put a few caches back into play.
 
10-Sep-20
Unarchiving at CO request - not related to maintenance issue.
 
30-Mar-20
Since I'm not comfortable with people seeking my caches during a global pandemic and disabling the listing isn't going to stop some from looking regardless, I am archiving this listing.
STAY HOME!
STAY SAFE!
 
23-Mar-20
Following the statement from the Victorian Premier today, announcing a Level 1 Shutdown due to COVID - 19, I have decided to temporarily disable this geocache.
I will review this decision on a regular basis over the coming weeks / months and reassess it as needs be.
Stay safe everyone, see you on the other side.

06-Nov-19
Our first melbourne geocache! Decided to use my geosenses instead of the gps and it was such a satisfying hide! What a beautiful location with catherinec19 also this is the first cache we’ve found in the new geovehicle!!! Faved
 
31-Aug-19
Came to Werribee to get some plants from plant mark. It was easy to talk my muggle fisher hubby in to finding this one. This had a nice hidey place all is well. TFTC
 
15-Aug-19
A slow meander around the Werribee area with ilook4geo was the order of the day, finding some caches not looked for previously. This one took a bit of serious looking but it was found in a secure hiding place. No one was around at the time, so that made searching a lot easier. All was done to keep everything in order and the cache was placed back into position before we headed off again. Thanks n0w9rries + wife for bringing us to this area by placing this cache.
 
15-Aug-19
Went out on a caching trip around Werribee area today with goingplaces2. Found what we wanted and signed each log. Enjoyed finding this well hidden cache and managed a fairly quick find. TFTC.

After attending the Vision 2020 Event in Werribee we enjoyed a day in the splendid company of Alansee seeking out a few caches on Melbourne's western fringe. Alan made a quick find before we checked out the views across the water.

Thanks to 'n0w0rries' for adding this cache to our gameboard.

I am not sure if I have been here before but regardless it was well worth another visit. Quite a good hide too, unlikely to get muggled.
 
27-Jul-19
Out hunting today with my sister and Crusty K9. Signed the log and enjoyed our lunch overlooking the bay on a beautiful day.
Thanks n0w0rries+wife.
 
17-Jul-19
Decided to collect a few more clues, jewels etc. for The Mystery at the Museum challenge. This took a little search until the Ah Ha moment hit. It was starting to rain just as I left.
Thanks for placing this cache for me to do thatn0w0rries +wife

Had lunch nearby and then Motherwombat and I went for a look see down by the water. Cache found without too much drama. Dropped off a TB and picked up one.
 
25-Jan-19
Called in here on a lovely 44 degree day as I had a trackable on me that wanted to get back to Point Cook.
Messaged the owner but with no response I left it here hoping it gets home.
I have never been down this way before and after finding this one I went for a walk along the front of the boat sheds.
I like the way these have been cut back into the dunes and some even have tracks for the boats.
Seems a nice area close to town and of course all of the market gardens.
Thanks n0w0rries +wife TFTC.
 
20-Jan-19
Down here with +Wife and our Geomutts, EveTheStaffy and MaxTheCollie.
A quick check on the cache and contents.
All in good order.

Marking the trackable: [Blue Whale](https://coord.info/TB70PN8) as missing.

After spending a day at Point Cook we thought we would stop here quickly on our way home, nice views
 
06-Aug-18
An icy cold northerly has the water flat this morning and me thinking maybe I should have worn something warmer than shorts and tshirt

24-Jun-18
Found it. Brilliany hiding spot, someone forgot to zip the bag up and the book was a bit damp. There was even a snail on the box!
 
13-Jun-18
Taken for a drive by Daynaduc to Campbells Cove where it took us a short while to find this nicely coloured cache in its good hiding spot. Some birds enjoying their day even though it was rather cold and windy here this pm.

**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** A Smiley Badge.

The kids finished school yesterday and with a day off today we decided to head to Werribee Zoo and make use of the Zoo Membership we got for Christmas. After spending a fabulous morning there it was my turn to find a cache or two and break my longest geo slump.

Knowing the CO of this cache and knowing he was having a bad day this was the perfect cache to find. A quick easy one and the kids enjoyed exploring before we headed off to have some lunch. Thanks for the great cache - so many hidden places found whilst caching.
 
26-Nov-17
Found: Found as the last few geocaches for us in Australia in 2017 before we headed to the USA for 6 weeks of road tripping. Thanks for this geocache here today.
