Rocky Road (Hawkes Bay) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Curglaff: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

Waipataki Beach is our favourite in Hawkes Bay - an isolated cove with a sandy beach, a stream running through it and coastal paths running in both directions. Good for surfing too! There's plenty of parking close to the beach at the end of the beach road

The drive from Napier takes around half an hour along a twisty road, but the views right across the bay are worth it, especially of Napier hill.

Small children might have a bit of difficulty getting right up to the cache, but it's not in a dangerous position so please don't search on cliff edges or near the surf!

The cache is a small plastic container and originally contained:

1. Robotic reading light
2. Tamagotchi
3. Queen Elizabeth commemoration coin
4. Small Gem
5. Paua shell
6. Crayons
7. Keyring with waterproof container
8. NZ Ball
9. Dinosaur!
10. Bag of rings and hairclips
