31/3/18- found it, needs maintenance due to water in container. Have drained it as best as I could.
Great view and rest spot from walking the beautiful track.

This is such a gorgeous spot! Unfortunately it's had some water damage and the Contents are all a bit soggy
Such a pretty walk to this one! The contents are sadly all a it water damaged so couldn't write our name on the list
The find has taken on some water and is looking a little worse for wear. We walked along the ridge after a relaxing afternoon on the beach and were really thankful for the easy find. TFTC
Awesome spot. Bit wet. Rescued the trackable. Will place somewhere else along the coast! Thanks!
Second cab of the rank, walking up to this one whilst enjoying listening to a podcast I quickly made my way to GZ learning about the crazy side of American History. Anyways back to the cache. This one took a bit of walking back and forth before I could find it, with gps leading me astray I decided to go around the corner and wham there it was. Cache was a little damp but all in all in fairly decent. Thanks for placing this old cache.

Found with Ben Christine and Phil. Cool beach! Dropped off a penguin travel bug from NZ.
Found today, spent the arvo on the beach do day and snuck off for this cache. Favourite beach, great rock pools! Tftc
Spent the afternoon on a walking adventure around Sorrento back beach and picked up a few caches on the way. Magnificent views, magic weather. Cache found in good condition. Many thanx to Geofreak
Enabling cache. - it would seem a good Samaritan has attended to the issue and this cache lives again.
Saw this cache was disabled and in need of a logbook. So brought one with me and left in the cache. Container in great condition. Really enjoyed walking Coppins Track. Fabulous views. Cache can be enabled. TFTC

After an amusing hike withe the geokids and geomuggle (aka reluctant husband) we found it this cache was a fun to find and the geokids loved the swaps we were hoping to find the trackable as we are going overseas soon. The log book needs Maitnence as it is wet and there is little room to right Tftc
Love that cache - kids enjoyed looking what was in there. We added something to it. Thanks 
Beautiful place on a misty day.
See a couple on Kestrels in the dunes.
Thx

TFTC Lovely sunny day to go for a walk so we picked this up on the way after a rest
While my teenager sons were playing in the surf and their dad was asleep on the beach I was lonely. The way to fix this, of course, is to search for a geocache. A leisurely walk from the Sorrento Ocean Beach rewarded me with beautiful views, the sight of a Perigrine Falcon and this cache.
Thank you, geofreak
Thank you, geofreak
found it. Very nice spot. Grabbed this one while down having lunch with the family. TftcTFTC lovely views after a beautiful day. TNLN. Mostly damp contents. Log needs help.
Today is our goodbye walk to the ocean. We have some TB's to drop and this cache should be a good size! We walked trough the dunes over a nice small path. What a beautiful view over the ocean. We were looking at the wrong bushes first, but when I turned around the cache was easy to find! We will never forget this magnificent spot when we're back in the Netherlands!
Amazing view, easy find.

DoctorFool and linneke1902. Not hard to find after initially missing turn off. No 9 No 9 No 9 TFTC
Good location, fantastic view! Signed log and left a plastic tube for someone to use as a cache
Ozzie Day. Out for a bit of a gander at the ripper cliff-top scenery along these parts. Found this top quoll cache hiding spot. Contents a bit moist and sad, so left some stickers to brighten up the place. Cheers!
Out this morning on a short cache run. Great views on the track. A few people on the track as well. Found the cache quickly at gz. Thanks geofreak

Spiffy- and I were caching in area and decided to grab this along our way. I made the find with the cache quite exposed. Placed it back a little more securely but still easy enough. Credit to Spiffy- though who despite twisting his ankle battled on for not only this cache but another 40 afterwards. What a legend. Thanks Geofreak for the cache.
Despite the forecast we headed out for another short day trip to the peninsula to finish off a small project we had been working on and to finally do a few more of the excellent bay trail caches that we had done a few of a while ago.
We were doing a few along the coast here and this was a pleasant walk in and an easy find once at GZ so we hid it slightly better when leaving so it was not just lying on the side of track.
Was relaxing on the walk on the way back to the car and looking at my phone screen and twisted my ankle on the uneven path and came crashing down. It's still a bit swollen this morning while logging the finds from yesterday but it should recover. The following 40 or so caches after this one probably did it good.
Thanks geofreak for the cache, the hunt, the great views and the fun.

Found this Cache yesterday with wolfgirlkitty this was our second Cache ever found and it was an awesome spot ! Such lovely views !
This is fun !! Our first ever cache found ... had to do a bit of "bush-bashing", as rather overgrown ... but took care not to damage vegetation. Great hide !!

Second day of kayaking down in Sorrento with the scouts. I had sometime to wait for a mate to drive down so a quick walk along the cliffs was the answer.
A great track leads to here and view was very different from yesterday. The tide was all the way out. So many more rocks down there.
Cache was easy to find and still in good condition. Cheers
