Geocache Description:

A walk of about one kilometer into the desert.

Stop your car next to the entrance of the Coraya Beach Resort and go west along the Wadi into the desert. Avoid wet parties because it could be quicksand.

First you will find much of garbage, but after some 100 meters you will find the real desert. Look around the rocks, there is breeding a pair of saker falcons and you can find many mineralized corals, about 8000 years old.

Be careful climbing up to the cache, it may be slippery because of the sand on the rocks. Good shoes are necessary! Be also careful because of snakes and scorpions, they could also be in the cache hole!

And think about it: YOU ARE IN THE DESERT AND YOU NEED WATER!

Small note on cache maintenance: There is a local cache guardian. Name and contact info on file with geocaching.com.
