Cache listing websites allow you to post the description and coordinates of your cache so other cachers can go and find them.

Geocaching.com has been operating since 2000 and a majority of Australian caches are listed there. Geocaching Australia started as a resource site, providing services like Maps and Statistics to Australian Geocachers which weren't available elsewhere. The site began listing caches in early 2005 and is a serious alternative for listing your cache. For more information, read GCA vs GC.
