The following list are my opinion and are determined only by me and only using the caches I have found thus far. Of course, my caches should be done first if that's all you have time for! ;-)

Best School Cache: China School Forest Easy cache, but very nice lumbering themed trail system & super cool tree house!
 
Best "Rest Stop" Cache: The Falls This may be an easy access cache, like many rest stop caches, but it's far from typical. A must see if you are in the area.
 
Best Virtual Cache: Gravity Outlaw  While this is not a difficult cache, it does require a short hike on some nice trails and great views around the cache site.
Honorable mention: Watch your step... A nice hike with great views of the coast and nearby beach.
 
Best Lake Cache: Island of the Giants Super clear water. Big rocks. Great sights. Good hiding places. It's all here. 

Best Ocean View and a great hike to boot: Bald Rock 2004 This cache replaces Bald Rock experience, and sets you up for one of the greatest hikes and most rewarding views at the top. Well worth the effort! For those incapable of hiking, Patty's Mount Battie offers a similar drive-up view, but there are more tourists there. 

Good Workout With Great Rewards: Black Mountain Cache with a Cadillac View A nice .7 mile (as the crow flies) hike with an interesting surprise when there is .3 miles to go. Spectacular views along the way and at the cache location.
Honorable mention: The Streak A great workout on a steep climb with great views of the western mountains.

Best Multi: Thorne Head Challenge Interesting area and many intersecting trails make this fun and interesting through every stage.

Best dam cache: Nash's Lake Dam Yes, that's dam, like the ones beavers build. But this one is man made, bigger than any beaver dam you'll ever see, and made from many blocks of granite in 1839 which created a great little pond. And a spot you'll most likely not see if not for geocaching.
