This cache has been archived.

btreviewer: Esta cache foi arquivada por falta de uma resposta atempada e/ou adequada perante as situações relatadas. Relembro a secção das guidelines sobre a manutenção http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=307#maint :

You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to maintain proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.). You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable amount of time – normally a few weeks – in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing.

Because of the effort required to maintain a geocache, we ask that you place physical caches in your usual caching area and not while on a vacation or business trip. It is best when you live within a manageable distance from the cache placements to allow for return visits. Geocaches placed during travel may not be published unless you are able to demonstrate an acceptable maintenance plan, which must allow for a quick response to reported problems. An acceptable maintenance plan might include the username of a local geocacher who will handle maintenance issues in your absence.[/quote]

Como owner, se tiver planos para recolocar a cache, por favor, contacte-me por [url=http://www.geocaching.com/email/?u=btreviewer]e-mail[/url].

Lembro que a eventual reactivação desta cache passará pelo mesmo processo de análise como se fosse uma nova cache, com todas as implicações que as guidelines actuais indicam.

Se no local existe algum container, por favor recolha-o a fim de evitar que se torne lixo (geolitter).

Obrigado

:: S. Martinho

The current bay of S. Martinho is the last vestige of an ancient Golf which, until the 16th century, extended itself inwards to Alfeizerão. It opens to the ocean through a small mouth, around 180 meters large, between the hills of Santana, to the South, and the Lighthouse, to the North (check the photos below).From the top of the belvederes of Facho and Cruzeiro, near the Chapel of Saint Anthony, it is a pleasure to take a look at the bay coloured by the typical yellow fishing boats and by the silvered track of small recreational ones.

The town, founded by the monks of the Monastery of Alcobaça at the 13th century, goes down in the shape of an amphitheatre from the hillside to the Dock, in the northern corner of the Beach. Over recent years it was progressively extended through the Marginal Avenue to the dunes of Salir. Its ancient houses can be discovered by climbing the D. Pedro V lane to the scenic spot of José Bento da Silva Square, or to the Main Church, from the 18th century.

S. Martinho do Porto has many possible walking routes, esplanades, pubs and restaurants for you to discover. The sea is astonishingly quiet and the beach a paradise for children and nautical sports.
