Geocache Description:

Small camoed bottle with twist off lid...contains a pencil and some small trade swag.

When in Port Medway, take the Long Cove Road out of town and head for the light house. The cache is close to the roadway, just east of the light house. It's a pretty easy find.

Once you sign the log please continue west along the rocky shore approx. 100 meters to the rock carving area. There are hundreds of names and initials here, some dating back over a hundred years. Certainly worth a look.

Actual co-ords for the carving area: N 44 06.210 W 064 32.257

I couldn't put the cache right on top of the carvings due to cache saturation guidelines.

See attached photos of carvings.

NOTE: It's probably best to park at the lighthouse and walk back along the rocks to the cache site. This way you'll walk right by the carvings and avoid the bushes that are roadside.
