Geocache Description:

MURIWAI POST OFFICE

A Letterbox Hybrid geocache on Muriwai Beach northwest of Auckland.


This remote geocache is a regular-sized sistema container in a black bag. It is secured in place, so all you need to do is open the bag to retrieve the cache. When you return the cache to the bag, please ensure the opening is tightly closed, and facing downhill to prevent the bag filling with water.

For Geocachers...

There is a logbook and pen for geocachers to log their visits. Please only log in this logbook, and not in the logbook that is there, and clearly labelled, for letterboxers. Do not remove the stamp or inkpad - they are not for swapping!

For Letterboxers...

There is a stamp, inkpad and logbook for letterboxers. Please stamp this book with your stamp, and do not stamp in the logbook that is there for geocachers. Please do not remove the stamp or inkpad from the cache. This letterbox is also listed on AtlasQuest

For Everyone...

You will likely need a 4WD vehicle, ATV or motorbike to access this cache/letterbox. If so, then please be very careful driving/riding on the beach:
- Be courteous to all other beach users and slow down when passing pedestrians or horses.
- The speed limit on the beach is 60 kph.
- Be careful in the soft sand as turning sharply at speed can flip your vehicle.
- Let someone know where you are going and when you expect to be back.
- Do NOT drive or ride into the dunes as this behaviour will likely lead to all vehicles being barred from the beach!

Happy Caching and Letterboxing!
