Tomahawk Incline (Dunedin) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

status quo: One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 28 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Geocache Description:


Tomahawk Beach is a popular summer location and although there is no Surf Life Saving Club there are two (St Clair and St Kilda) very nearby. The beach is still very close to Dunedin and people come here to avoid the crowds that are present at St Kilda and St Clair.

The beach gets a lot of powerful swell and needs to be treated with caution by beach users. There are strong rips at each of the headlands and a third rip will usually be present around the middle of the beach. The beach slopes steeply into the ocean at the high tide mark but flattens out towards the low tide mark. Rips and holes are common at Tomahawk and swimmers need to be careful in their choice of swimming location. The beach has no Lifeguarding service.


This cache replaces a archived cache that I was unable to find. Point of attack for this one is from the beach up the steep Incline and into the trees. Then look for a pile of rocks at the base of the cliff.
