Geocache Description:

This cache requires the use of a kayak or (another) boat for access. Placed on the southern shore of the island of Grindøya, this cache provides a magnificent view towards Malangen and Kvaløya and marvelous tranquility esp. regarded it's only a quick paddle away from the busy Tromsø city (terrain difficulty 1 as soon as you arrive on the island).

Grindøya island is a popular target for kayakers in Tromsø all year around. Paddling takes around 30 minutes when starting from the local kayak clubs at Sjølund. Please respect access limitations for the Island (only southern and northern beaches are available for people during bird mating season - 1st of may until the 20th of june). Once you have arrived on the island, the cache is easily available on the southern beach, and contains

  • laminated FTF certificate and gift (when you have used the gift, please consider putting it back into the cache for others to enjoy)
  • Log book and cache in zipped plastic bag
  • Collectables in zippled plastic bag
Enjoy!

Grindøya er et populært sted for kajakk-padlere i Tromsø hele året. Det tar circa 30 minutter å padle hit hvis man starter fra Sjølund der hvor kajakk-klubbene i Tromsø holder til. Vær vennlig og respekter hekketids-begrensningene her (fra første mai til 20 juni er det kun strendene på på sør og nord-siden som er tilgjengelig for publikum). Når du har ankommet Grindøya så er cachen enkelt tilgjengelig og inneholder:

  • Laminert FTF-sertifikat med gave (fint om gaven plasseres i cachen igjen etter bruk slik at andre kan ha glede av den, men dette er selvsagt ikke obligatorisk)
  • Loggbok i ziplock-plastikkpose
  • Byttegjenstander i ziplock-plastikkpose
Lykke til!
