Found it! A scramble up the slope and thanks to the hint cache was soon in hand!Log a bit damp, but still able to sign.TFTC - ??
Great spot by the water, definitely a low tide adventure with a bit of bank climbing involved.
Hola, I was reading the cache page and then realised that I had automatically translated the Spanish into English - who knew all those words would actually stay in my memory. We lucked the tide and had the most pleasant walk to GZ. Nice to remember all those lovely Spanish moments in my life (pre-Covid)
I was taking a walk with kiwitrecker1 and noticed this cache was nearby. The cache description was an interesting conversation piece as we approached from the beach. If ground conditions were dryer this would have been much easier but the negotiation of the slippery slope was enjoyable all the same. Cache is safe and well, thanks for placing it!
Was in the area, so I wanted to grab this cache.
Took the T2 was down and the T4 way up! Good times doing a bit of cliff climbing!
Thanks for the cache! Makes Spain feel pretty far away right now!

Hola amigos!
Happy I did check the cache description on my approach at about 51M to cache location and realized the right way to the hide. But actually I went to the left and landed at the beach.
Fortunately the tide was on my side but it was "just" two hours after high tide ... anyway.
I've enjoyed a little stroll by the beach side. Located hint description without any problems but area around GZ was very wet. Well it is a winter time. So it is obvious ...
Lovely view across the Manukau Harbour!
Thanks for interesting hide.

Visiting Auckland for a few days to see my daughter. She has work during the days so lots of free time to be out caching. Borrowed her 50cc scooter to get round a bit quicker. Enjoy finding bush walks particularly when it’s by water. Low tide so no problems following the shoreline. Cache all fine. Thanks for the smiley.
The elder Future Finder and I headed out the door this afternoon for a few hours of cache detection on this fine Easter Sunday. We parked up in the lower car park and I made the walk around to GZ while the FF put his feet up. The tide was high and still coming in as I walked around the shoreline. I made a mental note not to dillydally, lest I get wet feet on the return leg. I made the climb up to GZ and spotted the hidey spot on approach to execute a super quick find. I imagine it gets very wet here during winter. I did mange to get back to the auto with dry feet. Cheers for the cache placement!
This was a mission at high tide, but a fun find nonetheless. Muchas Gracias.
I tried several times to find an easy way to get to GZ, but then just parked and took the long way in spite of my efforts. As I neared GZ, I spotted the hint item so I was sure I was in the right place. TFTC.
Headed out early today for a paddleboard before the wind got up, then walked around & signed in at this newish cache. TFTC
Great hide- nice walk around to the GZ. Very happy to be 4th on the log and to find a pencil as this was an unplanned find! Woo hoo! TFTC.
I met up with Supernanny and we drove together down to the beach. The tide was only half in as we walked around and after a bit of a scramble we had the cache in hand. How on earth did you find this here?
Good to see you are getting back into geocaching Nedd!
Made a plan with merlot58 to get some new caches today...
This was our first stop!
So good that we could drive right down as the weather is a bit hot for walks...plus we avoided the steps!
Merlot rushed ahead and scrambled up first and we both sighted the obvious hint item .
That has been there for some! time....
Nice and easy...many thanks..

Enjoyed the walk on a sunny afternoon. Definitely the newest cache we’ve found so far! Liked the hiding spot. TFTC
Near gzWe had noticed this cache be published, but had other things to do before the start of the working week. Monday morning and we saw that it was still waiting to be found. MrsJAG was heading in that direction to visit relatives in the morning, and thought she would detour to look for this cache.
It was a beautiful sunny morning and once at the car park, she had no problems with parking as it was empty. After making the way down the path and along the shore to gz, the hint item was soon spotted and soon after the cache was in hand. Weren't surprised to open it up and find a blank log.
Thanks for bringing me back to this beautiful beach and the {FTF}
