Sounds like area is having work done on it at the moment and the cache location is inaccessible
Found a great parking spot,walked down to gz and then ... we saw the barricade. Guess we should have read the logs first. Nice place though.
Unfortunately when we went to find you cache, the boat rack area has been restricted/blocked access due to falling rocks. Perhaps you need to find another spot in that location ...
Unfortunately the area is fenced off due to it being deemed hazardous due to an unstable rock face.
Excellent location and walk though.

Took a photo as proof due to the log book being soaked and unsignable this cache really needs a Tupperware container
Lovely spot never would have seen this place if not for the cache so thank you

Out again exploring the North, this time I started at Milsons Point and ended up in Mosman collecting 9 cache before the big down pour. Then it was off to watch the cricket at a nearby pub.
Stunning views to this cache, enjoyed walking around the streets looking into the houses. Had the park to myself and the hint made this one a quick find. I continued on around the point taking a few happy snaps on the way. TFTC G&PMcc #472

Another delightful harbourside park I didn't know was here. What a lovely view.
Unfortunately the cache is in need of some TLC.
I've no idea if originally had some sort of container, but at the moment it's just a plastic bag. Which is not doing much use at keeping the elements away.
As such the log is soaked through and will need replacement.
Tftc.

Found it! Didn't know that there is a such quiet lovely spot. Thanks for hiding this cache here!!!
Found it! This one was pretty easy. The only problem for me was that my friends' mum dropped us approx 100m from the box and we were struggling to find which direction we were supposed to go. The box was broken but at least there was a plastic bag to hold everything.
On the way with Mrs A to replace my missing cache in Andersen Park. We jumped off the ferry and headed to this nice park.
A straight forward find in which we did the signing. Hmmm no container?

On a lovely sunny day we took a ferry to the North Shore to do some caching. This was a lovely park with great views,the cache was quickly found & signed. TFTC Geomatica & peter_mcc
TFTC. Hint helped! Next cacher pls bring new snaplock bag or small tupperware. This one split.
First cache for us. Kids were very excited. It's still in the container with official label, but no trackable inside. Must have been moved on already. TFTC
A perfect sunny day to discover the Manly Dam. On the way back to our home we made few stops.

Quick find for this. Very nice place. We have never been there before. Thank's for the discovery.

TFTC - a favourite spot in the local area.
Forgot my old writing implement so scratched a "KV" with a dirty stick.

Only my third geo bit of a challenge for a newbie but found it. It is no longer in a container just in a zip lock bag and a little weathered...

TFTC lovely hidden reserve. A lizard made his home in cache & scared me as much as him.
#1031 In Sydney for four nights after getting off the Queen Mary 2 - time for some caches 'down under'! Final one of the day taking advantage of the 'Sunday Opal max charge'! Cache is not in a box anymore - it's a zip-lock bag. SL TFTC
No container for this one, but the contents of the bag seemed to be relatively dry. No problems in locating this one due to the handy hint. TFTC
Hint was spot on. Another nice spot to visit. The nearby plaque tells of an interesting history of the park.
Think my gps was out but thanks to the hint found with ease. TFTC and beautiful location. I'll be returning here purely for the serenity in the near future.
It's pretty easy but it was a long walk when we got there I straight away saw it.my second find
Nice hide, needs new box, log damp, bags splitting! A park which is well worth a visit.
Found it! No lunchbox though, just the contents that are getting pretty weathered..
Good to see this cache is back and busting to be found again, such a lovely spot too. Tftc
Oh the horror, someone or something has taken their time to systematically dismember this poor cache. Container 10m from logbook. Logbook torn apart, swapables everywhere. Needed a few moments to compose myself. But I think this cache has had it's last find. Hopefully can come back one day and see this cache reborn and thriving again in it's natural habitat, ready and waiting to be found, signed and placed away for the next geocacher
The container wasn't there and the cache was very damp so couldn't sign the log. Placed back in plastic pouch and returned but needs a new container!
Lovely views in this park

Found with frazel, geo trashed, container missing all other contents still there including notepad but unable to sign as it was absolutely drenched.
Another beautiful park in Sydney with great water views. Found this on dusk. Unable to sign log as container was missing but log book still there but very wet.
Found it but soaked inside and too wet to write on. Needs replacement ASAP please
Nice one. Paused for a swing before beginning the search. Kicked a few rocks before I got it.
Absolutely soaked.. Unable to write anything. Needs owner intervention.
Since I couldn't write in the log book, I have included a photo of the cache.

Its so wet inside ... writing was abit difficult also left the tb from cache “the ogre ball“
Tftc, hadn't been to this part of the foreshore before. Added a new log book in a sealed bag.
Coordinates were spot on, although the last cachers who seem to be new had left it right out in the open :S so I signed log and replaced properly with some of the natural camo lying around it - tftc!
It was really good that there were no muggles in the immediate vicinity so there were no problems finding this cache. You have to wonder how often the water craft are used. The log was signed and then everything was put back where we had found it. It was rather sad that there were no trackables to be found in the cache (as per the inventory) when we came to visit. Thank you for bringing us to visit this area and thank you for putting a cache here for us to learn a bit about this area as well as Fort Denison.
Took the long way round to this one in the hot sun,refreshing swim in Sydney harbour revived me after
Happy New Year

Found under a rock near the racks. Easy find.
Log has been replenished and includes a pen for convenience.
Old soggy log still remains.

(Streak day 186 - just 80 more and I can grab Devil's Delivery - A streak challenge)
Decided to head on over to Cremorne / Mosman / Neutral Bay after a trip into the city. So hot I only grabbed four and hid in the airconditioned Hademobile between searches.
At least I found all four I attempted.
[center]END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION[/center]
Managed to park relatively close to GZ for this one - about 100 metres away.
Got to GZ and the iPhone was pointing in one area, but there were few likely hides there. Hmmm. Kept scouting around and 10 metres away I spotted something very suspiciously camo-like.
CIH!
Took away to a shady spot again to enjoy a little harbour breeze to complete signing duties, then back for the replace.
Up the steps and to the nearby shop for a much needed drink.

My first cach in Sydney. Over from NZ for a girls weekend and took the opportunity to find a cach. the log was to wet to sign, needs replacing. TFTC
This was the first one in Sydney.
The logbook is wet and needs to be replaced.

Great place and history about the area thanks.
Unfortunately the books drenched it hadn't been put back in the zip bag.

We were down here taking beautiful pictures of the bay. Very nice place. The log was unfortunately not in the zip-bag so it's completely wet. So there's a photo instead. TFTC
Hi, Great place for a cache but the box was left a little open at some point and the log book is completely soaked and unusabble (I did not try to even open the pages, it was more mush than book!!!) Needs a bit of TLC. TFTC.
Had a good walk around the area and the foreshore - very nice. Good chance to get a few caches under the belt. TFTC SL - This one needs some TLC - the log is totally soaked and unusable, I will message the CO - needs a good dry out and a bit of TLC....
Found it. Great walk. Found under a few rocks. At the bottom of the cliff by the rack. Great views
Took a while to find it. Was fooled by the 'obvious' hiding spot but lo and behold found it elsewhere in another obvious hiding spot!
