found it some time ago
 
31-May-14
2x DNF's in CB. We dug 1/2 foot deep all down the side of the boardwalk but CNF. Geocaches shouldn't be buried so suggest this one be verified by CO that it is still there.
 
31-May-14
After many years of service this cache will have to be archived.
The storms have changed the topography.
The boardwalk that was once well above ground level is now buried.
There is no way we can see to revive the cache in its present location so it will be archived.
Its possible the TBs are still in the cache but we hope they are off traveling with a Geo team.
Thanks to everyone that helped us over the years with this cache.
We will go digging for it ourselves next time we are up that way.
 
04-May-14
Unable to find it, despite digging.
 
01-May-14
Walking around town to have a look around and find some caches with ROKADZ and ALLIED OZ. Allied dug a lot of dirt from under the boardwalk but was unable to get to the cache.
 
07-Apr-14
There is no boardwalk anymore, so impossible to find!
 
01-Apr-14
On our way from Perth to Darwin we saw many great things and places - many of them thanks to geocaching! We thank the owners for sharing their favorite spots with us by hiding their caches!
 
28-Feb-14
Had a look with Tue Clan, who had found this previously, but no luck. If it is still there then it's quite buried, which isn't the point. Would be good for the CO to check in and reinstate cache in correct spot.
 
10-Jan-14
We are continuing our DNF streak with bombing out on this easy one Sad There is no 'under' the boardwalk, it's completely filled with sand (it's been really windy here last few days). We excavated in what we thought was the likely spot but didn't find the buried treasure.

I will remove the trackables listed in the cache as they are possibly in the hands of someone that is travelling.
They will turn up when they are placed in some other cache but the previous log confirms they are all missing...possibly enroute to other places.(we hope)

17-Jul-13
We found ourselves in this beautiful place on our way home from our holiday in the Pilbara [^]. After ending up in the overflow park for c'vans (really should have read your cache description better [:o)], we headed off in search of this one. We only had to wait a couple of minutes until the coast was clear, and the treasure was in hand within seconds Big Grin
We took it a little further down towards the beach to let the kids peruse the contents, with no swaps done ... everything ok and dry here. This place is crazy with tourists this time of year ... and i can see why [^] ... TFTC Lyn Pat and Nathan Big Grin

TFTC! Nice place and cache, tricky to find in the sand.
 
11-Jul-13
TFTC second last night in a gorgeous week at Coral Bay
 
10-Jul-13
What a wonderful bay.
Snorkeling from the beach is great - a guided tour to the reef and whales is greater.
Greetings from Germany
 
10-Jul-13

09-Jun-13
We have had no internet service for about 10 days so its time to log some finds.
We only stopped here for breakfast as we had camped here the last couple of tomes we were in the west.
A great spot for a cache, very low spot for a sit.
Thanks Lyn Pat and Nathan worth a favourite point for location
