How to unlock the Pinata Party achievement in The Orange Box - Definitive Guide
I found the caches myself using the guide on xbox360achievements.com, but added some more details and removed some spoilers:
1. The first cache is located at the end of the first chapter. When you have to swim under water through a tunnel for the first time, it is right before the tunnel, on the left hand side under water.
2. The rest of the caches are located in the second chapter. When you leave with the vortigaunt, the second cache is located in the wall in the first ant lion tunnel you go through.
3. After the second cache there will be a fight with acid lions, the third cache is in the tunnel right after this fight.
4. After the third cache there will be another fight with acid lions, the fourth cache is high up in the wall in the tunnel right after this fight.
5. At the end of the same tunnel, right before you fall back into the mine, the fifth cache is located in the ceiling.
6. The final four caches are located at the end of the second chapter, in the room with the elevator that brings you back to the other vortigaunts. The sixth is located in the wall right of the entrance.
7. The seventh cache is located in the same wall a bit more to the left, behind the old water boiler.
8. The eighth cache is located in the ceiling above the tracks.
9. The ninth cache is also located in the ceiling, but this time above the pool with the broken engine.

Achievement description is a little bit misleading: you don't have to break all web caches, you just need to break 9 particular web caches, located between the end of Chapter 1 and the end of Chapter 2 (so if you want to start from scratch with this achievement, you need to start from the beginning of Chapter 1, unless you have a mid-level savestate).
As a side note, on my 1st playthrough i missed one web cache, so after beating the game i've restarted it again from Chapter 1, and once i got the 1st cache (Video 1 @2:45) the achievement unlocked itself (I think the 1st cache was exactly the one I've missed on my 1st playthrough).
Follow these videos to understand where you can find all 9 web cache.

I missed the first one and started a new game at the first chapter. When I got to that tunnel just destroyed the cache and achievement popped :)

Just a heads up with above solution from AbmaOnline (which works perfectly by the way - thumbs up!).
6-9 are located in the _second_ room with an elevator.
You first pass through a large room with an elevator that go way up high - that's NOT the room with caches 6-9. You need to continue.
After being chased through the small tunnels by the large 'beasty' creature (the Guardian) you'll get to a room with an elevator on the left side - THAT'S the room....
Don't spend time in the first large elevator room looking for the caches - they're not there... ;)

1. After entering the tunnels and coming to the first water hole it will be under water. before getting to the vortigaunt that is saving Alyx.
2. Right after leaving the vortigaunts that are saving Alyx and going into the tunnel with the main vortigaunt to get the extract. it will be on the wall.
3&4. After fighting the first wave of acid-lions there will be one and after fighting a second wave of Acid-Lions there will be another.
5. Later on down the same tunnel there will be a weapons cashe above head.
6-9. Will all be in the elevator room were you need to attach the gear (two above head and two on the walls).
