Geocache Description:

Know Your Limits


The name of this cache was inspired by a sign outlining fishing limits on the walkway down to the beach at Maori Bay, the best access point to the cache, but also applies to your approach to the cache site, which involves clambering over rocks and some climbing (and possibly racing the tide).


You should only attempt this cache around low tide. Leave yourself plenty of time as unless you want to get wet (and the sea can be pretty wild around here) you can only really get to and from the cache location about an hour either side of low tide.

You may encounter seals on the way round from Maori Bay to the cache site. You shouldn't approach them and don't position yourself between them and the sea.

The cache is located on an often deserted beach and the view from the cache site is shown in the images above. You're looking for a black screwtop container with a log book, pen and a couple of trade items.
