TRFLT : Puerto Principe Traditional Cache

Can you find all the caches in THE TREASURE FLEET series? Find them all, and you're half way to finding X MARKS THE SPOT, a fine achievement for a budding buccaneer!

This series is based on a map of the Spanish Main in the Caribbean, with the caches being named after the main cities that pirates plundered on their travels! The location of the caches is intended to relate to the location of the cities on the map, so you are actually walking on the Spanish Main!

Puerto Principe

After almost continuous attacks from pirates the original city (founded as Santa María del Puerto del Príncipe around 1515 on the northern coast) was moved inland in 1528. The new city was built with a confusing lay-out of winding alleys that made it easier to defend it from any raiders. There are many blind alleys and forked streets that lead to squares of different sizes. There is only one exit from the city; should pirates ever return and succeed in entering the city, the hope was that the local inhabitants would be able to entrap and kill them.
