Anyone for Oysters? Cape Gloucester, Queensland, Australia
By burdair_3 on 01-May-06. Waypoint GCVTK4

Goldie and I have spent way too much time on this cache. Searching everywhere for over 10 metre radius. Pretty certain it's not here.
Loved the beach and view's

Unfortunately we are unable to actually go and check on the situation with this cache but seeing there have been a number of unsuccessful searching including one with a previous finder we are going to have to assume this cache has gone missing.

Sad,sad,sad. despite a team of people lookong including 2 previous finders we were unable to make a find here today. Such a beautiful place to come to however , so thank you for that

As we like a good boulder scramble, we enjoyed looking for this one. Took a few minutes of searching around GZ till we spied the nicely hidden cache. Came back round the headland at beach level as it was low tide

TFTC awesome scenery water so blue

Ridiculously awesome view

Like a mountain goat or rock wallaby. What a view though !!

One or most favourite places to holiday. Unfortunately only here for a cache and lunch, but a beautiful spot for a picnic and a dip. Thanks Burdair_3 for giving us the excuse for a trip down today.

Found with AlphaCharley. Great views
TFTC.

Found with Tinkster23. Great day trip

Lovely secluded place. Thanks

What an awesome day for an adventure, out and about caching with BenM70 and greencordial. Walked in rock climbing then out via the easier beach trek. Beautiful location. Cache located quite quickly and in good repair... TFTC burdair_3

Outfoxed to the cache by an eagleeyed greencordial. Probably walked straight past it as i rendezvoused with them as her and Jilly came in from the jungly mountain goat end. Got another one of yours, burdair3.

It was a bit of rock climbing to get involved ... a few months ago... it would have been a hard no from me. Another great experience thanks to Geocaching.

Finishing a busy holiday caching period with 2 of the 3 caches in this area.
First time out here and very impressed with the houses and views.
Found after a short walk from the geomobile.

Such a beautiful spot. Amazing. Be great here for a sunset..

Awesome spot, beautiful view, i was checking the GPS for GZ then looked to my right and there it was!

We had oyster for lunch does that count??

Sweat, blood and maybe be even tears today on our find today
TFTC

After lunch at the Eco went for a quick find.

A day trip from Airlie to pick up a few caches. It is true what they say - only mad dogs and cachers go out in the midday sun ... but when there is a prize to be had and fantastic rock formations on the beach at which to marvel, it is worth the sunburn and risk of heat stroke. We stopped at Gloucester Bay Resort on the way back for a cool beverage and ice cream. Cheers. T4T$

Found today on a day trip out from our house sit in Airlie Beach. Yet another prefect place to be on a day like this. Again, barely a soul around and certainly none to disrupt the hunt.

Another nice easy find and sign with a great view.

Thanks for the cache

The water is so clear today, this is one of the most beautiful places in the world

Beautiful spot to come to. Plenty of muggles as well on the last day of 3 day weekend.

Found.. it’s been a while since I’ve gone caching and what a great way to start back up.. returning to the Whitsundays warms my soul..

Absolutely stunning here..

Cache was a quick find..

Heading home to Townsville and stopped off here for a look after cruising around the islands earlier in the week.
Unhitched the boat at a nearby resort as I wasn't sure there'd be anywhere to turn around and then made the short walk to claim the find.
Great spot, beautiful beach.
Thanks burdair_3

Had a nice morning on the beach and found this one after a short climb.

Another beautiful beach on our day out with king cache family. Droped a TB for some realaxing holiday in this cache. The phone GPS was jumping around lucky I had my garmin with us. TFTC.

Went looking for this with geocache friends and kids after awesome day at Monte's.

Had trouble finding as phone GPS was giving dodgy reading and was expecting to find cache in rock cave.

Finally found with help of Coco's handheld GPS.

Love this place, best mainland beach in the Whitsundays, TFTC!

Silly us were to the south of GZ before we moved north and approached from there at high tide climbing the rocks barefoot and nearly burning but a really lovely area and glad to have popped by!

After a bit of hunting around we soon had this nice sized cache in hand, tnln, dipped tb, TFTC

Vielen Dank an burdair_3 für den Cache

Thanks for the cache, went to do the other 2 but wasn't gunna put Sandy wet feet in the car today (high tide) will get the other 2 next week sometime

While heading to look for this cache did some birdwatching too! Looking around I realised I was standing right next to it! Signed log and returned as found. TFTC

It was worth coming back to this one after needing a signal to locate it. Beautiful location! TNLN TFTC

Love this spot! Coords are good so it was a quick find here.
Thank you for luring us here. While sitting at GZ we watched a sea eagle catch a fish then it flew into the dead tree above us and proceeded to eat its catch. Wow! How special!
All is well with this cache Burdair_3.

We came to this location and got fabulous views of the pristine waters we got some tasty oysters

Another great find here.
After finding the cache we moved to the resort for some good drinks to get us home.
The ocean was almost flat here today, enjoyed our walk along the beach.
Good hide, thanks

What a beautified spot! Thank you for 'taking me around the next corner'... I don't want to go home!

I got molested by some wasps and the spiders but it was worth it. Tftc

Found it whilst anchored at the Eco resort on our yacht - relaxing before heading further north. Great spot! TFTC

Took me a bit since GPS was jumping around. Collected A lot of spider web and some rubbish then using the spoiler image was a quickly found! Cache a bit wet inside but nothing to bad! Took the bags since I will move soon in Elba island passing from Bali Bangkok and Cologne. Tftc

Wow what a spot. Thanks for bringing us here. Pure magic. A FP from us. Took a TB and left a couple.

Tftc. GPS took me straight to the spot. This is my favourite place in Aus. Lovely day of sailing as well.

To day,no oisters. But a nice walk over the beach and a smal climb on the rocks.
TFTC

Walked over from Montes and grabbed this one. Such a beautiful area. Busy today with the SICYC meet up we are here for but no one at the cache. Tfyc

Found this earlier with my Mum and Sis, GPS was a bit jumpy but the find was worth it, really wanted the eye patch but had nothing to swap haha. tftc!

Found with new sister cacher. A good scramble up, then found on the slide down. TFTC.

First find... This could get addictive!!

Found with aunty jodi on a day out with the 2 and 4 legged animals. Left some owls for the next person.

Today we are out for an excursion form Airlie Beach looking in the Dingo Beach area. We decided to follow the dirt road and ended up at this beach.
That was a bonus!
Not only were there great views and lovely blue water but a good sized cache as well.
We found it in a likely looking spot after a bit of scrambling round.

Great spot - 2 trackables listed not in container - TFTC

Found while on holidays. TNLN

Family find for this one, fun adventure climbing the rocks, took gargamel TB, his goal is in German so guess we drop him off somewhere. Thanks for the cache.

Phew bit of a mission clambering over the rock to get to this one! Found some fresh oysters but very small so only had one each, delicious! Lots of fun! TFTC

Paradise

Didn't collect any oysters but we did collect our hundredth cache. Well used 'illegal' camping spot lol. Tftc

Quick find and an awesome camping spot for futureuse. Tftc

10:50:00 AM. Out for a drive exploring a new area. Would loved to have camped here. Shame about the no camping signs. Made the walk along the beach and found the cache. Signed log and returned. Thanks burdair_3 for placing this cache.

Thanks for the cache, what an amazing spot! Almost gave up on it but found it on the way down!

Lovely spot. Thanks

While staying near Proserpine we headed back to Bowen to try for some of the local caches without the van in tow.

On the way back to the van we had a look at Hydeaway/Hideaway Bay (we have seen it spelt both ways) and Dingo Beach. A few folks enjoying this sheltered area away from the strong south easterly today

Thanks for the hide burdair 3[^]

Found it! Great spot! Pen not working and don't have one to replace - some swaps in there too! Well done

Great spot! Not too hard to find - there's still some swaps in it but the pen is not working and I didn't have a replacement for it.

On holidays visiting Robert and Jenenne. Beautiful spot.

Took me a bit to find as GPS was jumping all over the place great view tftc

Found it . Great location. We had a fantastic day exploring around Cape Gloucester. We've only just starting caching but this was an adventure and our favourite cache so far.

JUST AMAZING!
blue water, sunny day, nobody on the beach, and a large view,
Thanks for this favorite, we love it!

Great drive down the gravel road to Hideaway Bay and what a lovely little beach. Wandered along the beach to GZ and soon found the cache. Celebrated by going to Cape Gloucester Resort and had apple pie and coffee under the trees. TFTC burdair_3

Found 3/7/2015

Found with WesWil and geokids!

Lovely spot and lunch at Montes was awesome. We hiked a little to get to the cache but was rewarding in the end. TFTC!!!

Great little find, and our first in Oz

Great little find, and our first in Oz

Enjoyed this cache. went for an enjoyable quick snorkel afterwards. Will be back in the near future to spend more time. TFTC

Magic spot. We came in on the wrong side. Lots of rocks to climb over from this side. Well worth a look tftc

Came to look for this after a quick stop at a nearby Eco resort where the kids had a dip in the pool. Spot on coordinates made the find a quick one. Was so beautiful here we decided to stop for our picnic lunch. Thanks for bringing us here.

After a long relaxing lunch at monties we decided to drive the short distance to try our luck at this cache.
There were a few cars parked nearby and someone has decided to get comfy by bringing their couch down[:p]
A hop skip and jump over the rocks and what do you know...... A cache
A fp from me for the location. Just amazing.

Found it. TFTC
Trackable gone
Took nothing left keyring torch

Found it!! Hasn't been fond for a little while so good to know it's still there. Beautiful little spot

Beautiful beach. Found with Muzzafish and Linus, our sweet German friend. Linus said "Nice, I found my first box. I definitely want to find more boxes."

Tftc

Challenging

Found on a glorious day. This is such a beautiful spot, TFTC

Found It! Came for a quiet afternoon relaxing on the beach thought I might check if a geocache was nearby and there was one

Another lovely spot to be brought to thanks to geoCaching. We searched and searched and then geoD realised he was almost standing on top of it.

A fantastic spot. After finding the cache we went for a swim and spent most of the arvo here. We were pondering how to get the nearby island cache but the sun would be setting soon and low tide was still a few hours off so a daring plan was hatched..!
Thanks.

Wow a must people, no really a must!! I am travelling from Bendigo, vic to Cairns, qld and have seen a bunch of beaches even camped on a few but all the ones up hear in the Bowin area are amazing and this cashe is the best beach I have seen yet people you'll need shoes but this is the type of cashe you will wish you had packed a lunch and googles I promise, we where lucky enough to have such items close at hand, if I could fave this I would have 5/5 for me

Spent the night at Hydeaway Bay during our camping trip up to Cape Tribulation. Great spot & a beautiful beach.
Thanks,
The Hancock Clan

Very nice views! TFTC

tftc happy christmas

Enjoyed this hide and seek to eventually find the cache….beautiful setting on a remote part of Hideaway Bay overlooking the "Oyster" spot between the rocks. Worth the effort and recommend this experience to all.

On holiday in Hideawy Bay. Nice find with Coco, Sushi and Stoffel. Also with RoccoDeWetGrensvegter from South Africa.

Took out the fishing lure (not clever to leave sharp objects in a GC [:(!])

easy find by team member MatthewH
fantastic general area
TFTC

Largely on a whim after 3 nights in Bowen we broke the cache, beach, pool routine and headed south. Whilst geomum sustained a minor foot injury saving the icheat device from collision with the rocks and sand it was left to Miss 6 and geodad to find the cache in good order, from the beach, sign the log and take nothing. We then procured more than adequate lunch from the nearest resort. Were it not for caching we would have never ventured here so we are very grateful for the reason to explore. This is a great little beach and one of our favourites.

Found at 5:38 PM GAFF1. Not so many oysters here anymore - unless they are way down the water line, but what was more important at this time was the view with the setting sun which was absolutely fantastic. We were camped nearby and as soon as we dropped off the van, we headed out to this cache to catch the light. Just fantastic.- we normally don't like to compare, but it could have been in any Mediterranean island.
Thanks burdair_3.

Great spot, awesome afternoon. TFTC

A great cache spot

A great cache spot

# 814 Time again for a C+2M Camp-Cache adventure. We went north last time so decided to head south this time, with the hope of getting a couple of the littoral caches. We also had some other planned adventures as well.

After confirming that we had wasted to much time to catch the nearby cache at low tide, we came over here to claim this cache. Cache was easily found in great condition.
