The sea continues to be a central part of the history and culture of the United Arab Emirates. Each of the emirates faces the sea and much of the daily life of the country takes place near to the sea-shore. Every emirate thus has a corniche where the public can relax, stroll around, watch and be seen. Perfect places for a cache!
This is the fifth of a series of eight caches, one in each emirate and a final one that requires the previous seven to be found. The series comprises of the following caches:
Abu Dhabi Promenade, GC1BXCK
Dubai Promenade, GC1BXPY
Sharjah Promenade, GC1BZ2X
Ajman Promenade, GC1BZ3H
Umm al Quwain Promenade (this one), GC1CZ3R
Ras al Khaimah Promenade , GC1C23V
Fujairah Promenade , GC1C9V7
UAE Promenade, GC1CFAY
The Umm al Quwain Promenade cache is a micro placed under a utility box along the UAQ corniche. Please make a note of the prominent series of numbers hand-written on the box under which the micro has been hidden as this will be part of the clue leading to the eighth and final cache. As these numbers are written in Arabic, use the following list to translate:

Although the cache has been hidden in a discreet area, please be aware of muggles and replace the cache exactly where you have found it.
