Thank you for bringing us to this lovely spot - we had lunch and then I took my photo just in front of the beach

What a lovely little spot!Found while winding our way home from Canberra... the long way

Reperio 06:22Day 4 of our NSW south eastern caching tour, and Master Vitruvius and I travelled from Batemans Bay to Eden. The biggest factor of our travels today was the wind. Often blowing so hard it was a challenge to both get the log signed and hang onto zip lock bags. The journey along the coast was fantastic. With rain threatening to arrive early the next day, we aimed to get as much done as we could, and so concentrated our effort on ticking off the caches along Bengello Beach. We were visiting this location last night, but unfortunately couldnt get a decent enough photo that actually looked like we were here. So just after sunrise, we returned to the same spot, and witnessed the beautiful sunrise over the water.Gratias injurymanAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV

This is a lovely area so we can see why the CO enjoys it so much. Plenty of families at the playground area.The activity today was a leisurely drive south down the coast exploring and then across to Mogo at the highway before heading back to our camp.We visited some lovely areas with fantastic coastal views and walked some coastal paths. A bonus was the caches we found along our way on an overcast but lovely day.Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache injuryman.**SKI Pair****

Beautiful place to stop and have lunch while on a road trip with tash2494

Find# 11725A beautiful day for a cache, albeit a virtual. TFTC injuryman 10 August 2024

In all our travels we would not have even thought to travel to this location. (HaHa). In your dreams, these cachers do. [:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort. Devilish Brilliant and Clever I like it Another one off the list TTBLNSL TFTC/TFTH/TFBUH - Injury Man [^]

I do like the scenic beaches around this part of the coast. TFTC.

one of the most beautiful beaches ive ever seen!!! Came at 8am and it's stunning thank you for bringing me here!

One of the most beautiful places we even been to travelling aus we so happy it was dog friendly it a must if you Staying in the Bateman Bay Area

TFTC, great park and view.

Found it

11th of 11 found today.Decided to have lunch here and found that there was a virtual nearby. So of course here's my ugly mug, enjoy TFTC injuryman and the hungi

We have spent way too much time getting back home from the Easter Mega in Canberra. It is pouring rain again so we are going to pick up some virtuals as we go if they are accessible in the rain.We were lucky that the beach didn't come up to greet us here. Photos is with GT37's log. Thanks for the cache.

This was the perfect A/L for a day like today. With no answers needed and only a photo, you don't need to get out of the car for too long and get drowned. Thanks for bringing us to this location. We look forward to coming back when the weather is better.

Fantastic coastline. We all stayed a little further down the coast with the waves crashing in our ears! Found on the Mega Capital Geobash coastal loop via Adelaide - Barrington - coast to Mexico City loop. A lot of caches and white line fever was sweated out. Thanks injuryman and clear skies from TeamAstro. Cache the planet! Some logs signed as TAD as teamed up with Tenkae and Deanside for additional fun. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Caching around on the road trip that encompasses Barrington Tops, Sydney, the Easter Geobash Mega in Canberra then the return via who knows where to homeLove a walk beside the oceanThanks for this Virtualinjuryman and for contributing to this great game for myself and others to enjoy.

I visited this Virtual cache after travelling from Adelaide up to Sydney to deal with some personal business matters then back down to Canberra for the Mega event over Easter.It has been great to be able to get back out on the road again, travelling and camping on my own. The weather is good too!I have identified some caches of interest and am taking a rather circuitous route, hoping to find as many targets as possible in the relatively short time available. So many caches; so little time!Not the greatest day for the beach, but a beautiful spot nonetheless. Its a fantastic coastline.Thanks injuryman for the cache. And a favourite point from me for a straightforward Virtual cache in a nice location with a simple logging requirement. Well done!

Visited it during 28-days geotrip to Australia, N.Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, Am.Samoa, Fr.Polynesia with Marci, Ch. Sometimes we logged as "MT" or "Jonea" or "MTCh". Thanks for showing nice caches and places. MT-Jonea from Brno city in Czechia EU. FP

After a superb night staying at Youban's place, where the Home Brew, Red Wine and Geocaching banter did flow, we were all up early this morning for the Beach Breakfast BBQ. Our thanks to the chefs who cooked up a storm of delicious Bacon Eggs and Sausages. After that we started on our way to a leisurely meander home via certain caches. This was the next one. There was a bit of construction work going on nearby with fences up, so we did our best for the photo. Thanks injuryman !! Lovely area for Virtual. Fav Point !

Nice stop on our tourist drive. Lovely views. TFTV

A cache trip to the coast for the 20th anniversary of the worlds first Earthcache in South Durras and as part of an Canberran invasion with a number of CBR cachers staying Moruya till Sunday. After meeting up with everyone in the Bay the day went on with some more caches along the coast, by this stage in a team with Aquilus1, Albida33 and Joolay, we were targeting cache which at least two or more of us needed including a number of ECs, a virtual and a new grand TE adventure at Mossy point. This cache: Albida and I needed this one and the two girls were nice enough to have us go up to this furthest point for us this afternoon extra to get this cache. Thank you Injuryman for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

Weekend trip to Moruya and South Durras for the Twentieth Anniversary of the Wasps Head Earth cache, First in the world. Day 1. It was an early start to catch up with other caches down in Batemans Bay. I still managed a few stops along the way and had a smooth drive down the hill, despite all the traffic. I joined up with Tankengine, Dty73, Aquillus and Joolay and headed down to Moruya via Mogo and the LABs there. A brief lunch and we collected Youban was next. The after noon was a trip in Flintones tesla with Aquillus, Joolay and myself to target the Earth caches north of Moruya along the coast. We fit in a few other caches before heading onto town for a great dinner at a local pizza shop.It was great to see a few new Virtuals down this area now. There are works going on right near the pin, so we moved out onto the grass to grab the required image which is attached.Thanks for the cache injuryman45288.7 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & January 2020 Window into Caching A#412**Albida**

Spending a Lovely long weekend done here (with half of Canberra). Love this beach, although the grass is not as green at the moment.

A quick stop on the way to Tathra for the long weekend. What a beautiful spot. TFTC.

On a day trip down the coast and the playground was enough to convince the geokids that we should stop at this location. Beautiful day for a trip and the perfect excuse to stop here at Malua Bay. TFTC!

Stayed in town for the night with this amazing ocean view. Easy to track this virtual. One of the grumpy bears walking the pathway for picture proof.

Currently holidaying at Batemans Bay. Collected this virtual on our way back to the accommodation after playing bowls at the Malua Bay Bowls club.
Good food and hospitality

So many happy memories of Holidays spent at this Beach.
We have not been back here for many years and the buildings and landscape have changed around the shops here.
It’s lovely to see that the green area is still the same, and we used to watch people play Boules not too far from here.
Given it is winter, it was very quiet at GZ, but we were very happy to have a coffee nearby and then come to visit this virtual.
Thanks KingPin4 for this one!

Had a bit of daylight left and went for this virtual.
Beautiful spot, thank you injuryman

After staying overnight in Bateman's Bay I went out this morning for a drive in the area to pick up a few caches. Weather was really great and some of the views are spectacular.

Found it but pen stuff out

I don’t like my photo so I got Geomum to stand in photo with my name.

It is said that the Creator had a pepperoni and cheese pizza in mind when creating the Discworld, but slightly overdid it. The secret of pizza-making was given to Klatchian mystic Ronron "Revelation Joe" Shuwadhi by the Creator in a dream.

The original pizza can be found in the Forbidden City of Ee, although, of course, that would require finding that city first.

Pizza is eaten by student wizards who work until late on Hex, other humans, and more recently dwarfs and trolls. It has, however, been discovered that pizza should not be fed to swamp dragons. Known pizzas include the Quatre Rodenti (the dwarf choice), Klatchian Hots and Four Strata. Even Lord Vetinari has eaten a pizza at least once.

CaptainVimes and I are on a driving holiday from Melbourne to Canberra this week. We stopped here for a quick photo. Thanks for the fun injuryman

First cache with baby mooch. What a cracker view.

A beautiful bay well deserving of a virtual. Plenty of tourists enjoying the extra 2 days at the end of the school holidays.
I Dropped by on a day trip to the coast to do some maintenance on a few caches of mine in Turros Head.
Thanks for bringing me back here.

Easter break nearby. Finally got wife interested in South Coast rather than the Gong. Now to see whether smart enough to add Pic

Just stopping into Malua Bay for a quick visit, and outside my hotel window is this gorgeous park and beach. My photo doesn't do it justice, but thanks for placing a virtual cache here

My first time in Australia.
Thanks for the cache

TFTC a quick find along our journey. Sorry no paper for cache name.

Hi Kingpin4, thanks for your efforts on this cache.
We were here today on our NSW coast leg of our ‘Around Australia’ trip.
We set off back at the start of 2021 expecting to go around Australia in 12 months - here we are still going in 2023 with about 1/3 of the island left to lap.
My (Geo Mum) personal Favourite experience: Too many to choose, Finding Gold and Opal high up there, working on a CQ cattle station was awesome too.
Favourite location: Gibb River Road/ Kimberley closely followed by Nhulunbuy/ Arnhem Land.
Best paid activity: Horizontal falls
Best free activity: Kings Canyon Rim Walk, Matt Wright putting us up for free in one of his helicopters was pretty awesome. (Let’s not talk about his current situation )
Most interesting location. Arnhem Land
What you have learnt: I wish I had something insightful to put in here, if I though really hard about it perhaps I do but I gues the most practical things I learnt are: Mango sap burns, midges are xxxx’s and dog beds are a versatile alternative to real furniture.
Miss the most: Family & Friends, closely followed by my garden and my chooks.
Look forward to the most: The Whitsundays
Regrets? Worrying so much and not heading off years ago!

*Sorry for the copy and paste log but I’m notorious for getting behind with logs and fluffing them up.

A short stop off here at this beautiful beach.

Day 6 of Courtneyrose_ and I’s trip from Adelaide to Sydney, today we headed from Cooma to Batemans Bay via Bega. After caching around Cooma in the morning before our event it was Was interesting to go from country highlands to the coast after being inland for the whole trip.

Thanks for the cache

Argh beautiful day regardless of a bit of mist. Harvey boy has had a ball. Peace out ️ Kaz

On a Mission with AngelG27, TikvaNZ and ZQX (signed as FATZ) during a public holiday in the ACT. Aim was to pick up earthcaches and some other selected caches.

Rain started to close in when we arrived. TFTC KingPin4

The rain had set in by this point. Two of my fellow travellers had already found this, but FIJ and I jumped out and took some happy snaps.
There was a good vibe about at the time. I'm giving this a fave point because I was only able to give the CO's new EC one FP.
TFTVC!

Day 13 of our 2 week road trip south from Brisbane. After overcoming floods, a bogged car and vehicle electrical issues, we finally reached Canberra to spend a few days with relatives before continuing south for a loop around the Snowy Mountains. From there we headed towards Eden to commence the run north towards home following along the coastline.

A great spot to get out and have a stretch of the legs and enjoy the views. I took the opportunity to visit this virtual cache while my wife took advantage of the facilities nearby. A win-win situation. TFTC

Stayed here for a night, very nice.
