A great example of coastal native bush overlooking an estuary containing some regeneration efforts of local schools.
Cache (a 2L snaplock container) is a 5min walk on graveled track within 50m of estuary lookout. There is no need to leave track to retrieve cache, it can easily be reached from trackside.
Beyond cache on the loop track are the “Blind Trail” and “Unnatural Trail”. With a blindfold the Blind trail provides a fun diversion, as does trying to spot the 6 out of place objects on the Unnatural Trail (S 46° 33.253 E 169° 28.074) - we highly recommend you do this if you have time. There is also a crawl trail beside the boardwalk.
