Geocache Description:

The Cache is hidden along Oyster Lane, a small cul du sac just off the Strandhill Ballisodare road near Culleenamore.

The cache is a tablock sealed container containing a log book, pencil and sharpener. There is a bouncy ball, some metallic glitter and in keeping with the area, a small sailing boat.

PARKING: N 54*14.957 W 008*34.973
It is recommended to park on the left, just past the cul du sac where there is room for one carriage. While it is possible to drive down Oyster Lane the way is narrow and quite rough. It is a pleasant walk of no more than approx 500m from the recommended car parking area.

The object of this cache is to introduce Geocachers to view the colony of Grey Seals whose habitat is in the local bay. They are particularly visible during low tide when they can be seen basking on the sand bars. Even at full tide you should still be able to get a sighting.

Please bring binoculars and if possible try and post a log of the number of sightings.
