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.
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.

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.
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!
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.
We are continuing our DNF streak with bombing out on this easy one 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.
before leaving for a boat trip out to the reef we catched this one . thanks and greetings from switzerland. drummers2105
#16 on my trip to Western Australia which has just finished. Now it's time to log all the finds. Thanks for showing this place and the hide! Greetings from Germany, Ernschtl
What a great place to leave my tb! As i saw a whale shark it is perfect for sharkinablue. Tb in and thx ftc.
Always nice to find a cache that's online for almost 10 years. It was a quick find with not many muggles around.
was chilling on the beach, when i switched my gps on it said less than 50m for that one. excellent...
thanks for hiding!

We were lying at the beach when I switched on the Garmin and realised, I was within 1-minute-reach of this cache.

Another beautiful day in Coral Bay. Great place for a short stay so left trackable, an overseas visitor traveling through Australia. Hope he will be picked up soon and taken further on his travels.
Had a lovely walk around the beautiful Coral Bay whilst searching for some caches. Tftc
A Cache from Lyn, Pat and Nathan, our favorite Australien Cachers just have to be found if possible.
So before leaving Coral bay, quickly made a stroll on the beach to find this Cache.
Thanks for hiding it.
Take care,

We found it at 10:17 so this now makes our total find count 7129.

A nice stroll along the foreshore today. We were parked close by two days a go, but there were too many muggles then.
[/blue]
Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Around 2 metres).
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape, but the container is barely covered by the boardwalk and surrounding sand.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Fabric Doll
Grabbed: TB -"Flip Flop No2"
Dropped: TB "Where Eagles Dare"
Thanks Lyn Pat and Nathan for the hunt today.

Windy day today, no good for swimming but good for exploring... Thanks for the cache. Took dolphin left picture
Driving south on the west coast, on our 2nd trip around Australia.
Dropped into Coral Bay to have a look around.
A short walk down to the beach, not many muggles in the area.
Cache was an easy find, sighted a trackable.

Found ages back whilst out at night caching with my dad, a great little cache but impossible to do during the day. Sorry for the late log but loved the location.

Well, that was a quick and easy cache. Dug out his little home and re-hid it a bit better.

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)

Jenny felt crowded here after Mt Augustus so appropriate that she made this find.
Lovely place. Enjoyed the cruise on the glass-bottomed boat. Amazing coral formations. TFTC
Unfortunately was a very windy day while we were here but we still managed a quick dip in the crystal clear water. Nice spot. TFTC
Great spot for a cache...fantastic location...log book and pencil here...no travel bugs as of today however...Thanks for the cache...day 3 of the August challenge....
On holidays here with my family... Dad found this one! TFTC Lyn Pat & Nathan
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
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

What a wonderful bay.
Snorkeling from the beach is great - a guided tour to the reef and whales is greater.

Almost didn’t find this one, but my sister insisted we try the unconventional, and it worked. Signed the log, then went for a great snorkel. Left a pin. TFTC
What a picturesque spot. Clever hide. Managed to retrieve and replace between muggles. TFTC.
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
