Logs
I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Matthias999, requesting additional time.
An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.
Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

I won't be around in a short time, can someone place a new container here? Otherwise, this cache will be archived. Thanks!
###Cache Maintenance Visit Required please.###
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an Owner Maintenance visit, as the logs indicate that it is most likely missing, or else some other problem exists with the cache.
I agree that it certainly seems necessary to have it checked by the Cache Owner.
The cache owner needs to:
* Investigate the situation and either restore the cache, or address any other issues, such as correcting the D/T rating if necessary.
* Re-enable the cache by posting an Enable log
* Post an Owner Maintenance log to advise what has been done, and to clear any Needs Maintenance attribute which is present.
Otherwise :
* Post a Note Log to request more time if necessary, or provide other information..
**Do not use an Owner Maintenance log for this, that is for use only **when you actually do something to repair the cache**.
Alternatively:
* Archive the cache, and remove any remaining geo-litter from the site.
In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page to await owner action by Matthias999 and to take it off the playing board to prevent further geocaching community inconvenience.
[Please see the maintenance section of the Geocache Hiding Guidelines.](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance)
**I will check back in 30 days** to see that action has been by the CO.
If nothing has happened, I will assume that the cache has been abandoned and, unfortunately, I will need to Archive this cache.
*Caches archived because of lack of maintenance/abandonment will not be unarchived.*
The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is there, and in good condition, waiting to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.
Please see [my profile page](https://www.geocaching.com/p/default.aspx?u=Balayang) for additional information.
Thank you

Hi we've searched everywhere under every rock, sign, table & the platform to no avail. Can you enlighten us if its still there plz? We typed in the new coordinates too. We also talked to another caching family who had found it, but couldn't find it.
No joy with this one today! . Sad because it’s a beautiful spot and worth the stop.
Coordinates changed from:
S 25° 54.387 E 113° 31.602
Coordinates changed to:
S 25° 54.384 E 113° 31.601
Distance from original: 19.1 feet or 5.8 meters.
New cache, thanks to atCatpacity for renewing

After DNFing this one the other day we contacted the CO to ask for more info. Seems like the latest version is missing again so we have replaced with the permission of the CO. New container is a silver mint tin. Hopefully it last awhile as this is a beautiful spot, well with stopping for a visit. We stayed today and spotted a few crabs and many different types of fish. TFTC Matthias999, a fave
We didn't like our chances given the recent dnfs but still decided to visit this beautiful spot. The sign from the spoiler pic is no longer here so maybe cache has gone with it.
Unfortunately despite our best efforts today we were unable to locate your your cache. Not sure the spoiler photo is still relevant searched low and high but could not find this “easy” find. First dnf of the trip.
It's blowing a Gale today, so we decided to collect a few smilies, what a great place to stop . An easy find TFTC
TFTC Nice quick find once muggles left. Cache & log in good condition. Nice area & the water is crystal clear.
Lovely quiet little spot off the main road.
Was looking in the wrong spot for a while but got it eventually.

Introduced the kids to geocaching, this was our first find, loved the location, thanks
Travelling around Aus, we popped by to see the creek and thought we would give this one a go.
Thanks

A reasonably quick find with Bjossi. You could probably sit and look at the creek for ages. Spotted a cow tail ray today TFTC
Exploring around Denham and surrounds today and picking up a number of caches. Another wonderful spot to spend a while. Never realised that the river flows from the ocean and back to the lagoon. We never stop learning. Thanks Matthias999 for placing this cache for our enjoyment.
Went for a night time explore and pulled up to this one. Turned off all the lights to appreciate the milkyway 5 year old son and 7 year old niece found this one together. TFTC
Unfortunately a bit too late in the day for the birds too be about and those we saw eluded our identification efforts. A lovely mangrove area though - no stonefish were stepped on! TFTC -A&G
Holy Dooley! That was a little bugger to find! Up, down, around, under, over - on the hands n knees! GPS couldnt lock on to GZ, after some more research in past posts we found the pesky cache! Great location, Minergal even flicked a line in! Did she catch anything? Story to be told in my next log!
TFTC! DENHAM in awesome!

No fish to be found, but Panda Dundee and I found the cache. The water is so clear even for a mangrove area. TFTC
Came to an Aboriginal Cultural evening close by so looked for this one while we were waiting for everything to kick off. TFTC
It looks like the cache is gone again... Someone may renew it... Otherwise it will be archived...
No luck for me here today. Will try again at another time. Based on spoiler photo I believe this is missing.
Having a few days up in Shark Bay grabbing some more smileys...stoped here for lunch after grabing a couple of smileys in town...beatful peaceful spot with heaps of little fish in the creek...
After fruitlessly searching in the wrong spot, i downed some lunch to replenish, had another looksi and and got the

I was time for me to take my annual fishing trip up north . Loaded up the Jetski and all the gear and head to shark bay on the herald bright side . Now the boss wanted me to grab a few caches along the way which I agreed too do ..... So far I have manage to find all on my list and like to thank all the CO’s and delegated maintenance personal for keeping the geocaching alive .... TFTC.
Wow, it's really a paradise here.
What an amazing view to the creek connecting the lake with the sea.
Tinicapsl and I decided to replace the cache here, since it is worth to keep one at this nice place.
The original one is definitely gone.
Anyway, now let's move on for searching.
Tinicapsl will add a spoiler picture, since it is necessary to hide it in save way.
TFTC and greetings from Austria

We did here a replacement of the cache because it's really a nice place here.
Please put it back upside down not visible from the backside so that the cache will survive.

I will not be in Australia anytime soon, so if someone would like to renew this cache, just do it!

19 days trip from Broome to Perth - together with Sharrrk I watched the funny crabs, snorkeld in the water and waited for a unwatched moment to be able to grab the cache that I had in sight... 
and signed it hastily. Also took a coin - it turned out that it just came from Germany - so I placed it in another australian cache on our way. Thanks for showing us this beautifull place!

Thanks for showing us this beautifull place!We wanted to visit Monkey Mia and the dolphin station today. On the way we searched for some caches and found them all.
Thanks for the caches.
Sharks und Mantas wären zu sehen, [8)] und hey... ich war ja so wild entschlossen... stöffelte also quer durch den Sand zur Mündung. Leider wollte sich keines der versprochenen Viecher [8d] zeigen... tja denn muss ich wohl nochmal hierher kommen... es anders Mal! [:i]
Besten Dank für den Cache.
