Geocache Description:


This cache will bring you to one of the most beatiful beaches on the island Rab, Croatia.




SAHARA BEACH is a part of peninsula Lopar, which is a very popular turist resort on the Rab island. The main part of the beach is sandy with a very gentle and gradual sea access. Even being 100m out of the shore, you still do not need to swim, so this place is quite kids friendly.

Once you prefer a deeper bath, you need to follow the west strip of the beach, where you can find couple of small stony/rocky places to settle down and rest.

Anyway I would recommend you to follow the east shore with many more bathing and resting possibilities. There you will come across some nice and cosy sand beaches or you can find a real privat shelter in between the rocks. At the end of this part of the shore there is a very small marina for those, who want to reach this place by a boat.

If you feel more comfortable without the swimming suit, you are also welcome as this parts of the shore are FKK marked.

The CACHE is hidden in the middle parts of the trail going down from the upper parking place (under pine trees) through pleasant mediterranean vegetation to the sea. It is just some 700m of walking from the parking to the sea, but the path is very stony and rocky, so it is higly recommendable to leave your buggies or bikes locked upwards.

The way to the parking is marked from the main Lopar streets, anyway the last 100m of the road is not covered with asphalt, so be careful by driving. The coords of the parking are N 44°50.086 and E 14°44.609.




MAINTENANCE HELP
This cache (like all others on Rab so far) was set up by a visitor of the island, not a local cacher. That's why I would like to kindly ask you to help me with maintaining the cache and its content. Pls feel free to change the plastic bag, pen, logbook etc. once it is needed. Also taking any food or rubbish out of the cache is highly appreciated.
If the cache got lost, I can e-mail you a detailed description of its previous location, so you can replace it with a new one.
Thanks for cooperation

AND WISH YOU HAPPY CACHING !!
