Geocache Description:

Halfway up cliff face between Pukerua Bay and Plimmerton. Climbing of scree slopes may be necessary. Very steep in parts.

If you are not good with heights or climbing using hands, you should NOT attempt this cache. Cache elevation is approximately 78m.

Best entry is parking north of the cache site at the end of Pukerua Beach Road. The bottom of the cliff where cache is located is approximately 25mins walk from car park.

Cache can be approached from the south, however, be aware that you will need to walk through both a Marae and a quarry site. Motor vehicles are strictly prohibited. If wanting to approach cache from this direction, one should park near the Plimmerton Boating Club and walk from there.

Cache is a clear 1L plastic container.
