Geocache Description:

There is public beach parking at the far end of the Hyatt Regency lot

New cache replaced September 21, 2010.

Our four year old son loves penguins and was very excited to find out that there were some here on Maui. They are located at the Hyatt Regency in Kaanapali.

To find the second set of coordinates and the cache, you must visit the penguins at the above coordinates. You will lose satellite reception after you enter the lobby but should be able to locate the penguins from there. The second and final stage is walking distance from the first stage. Please leave everything as you found it at the second stage. Because this cache was muggled, we want to ensure it is well hidden.
Please hide just as well as you found it.
Mahalo.
