Geocache Description:

The second of a series of 4 caches accessible only by boat.

It's time to get "on yer' boat!" and get on the water. This is the second of four caches in the area that require a boat to get to. No point bringing the super yacht either; It gets pretty shallow around GZ. Depending on the tide, you may have to navigate around a few oyster-covered rocks below the surface or even get out and wade a little, so a small boat/canoe/kayak is recommended. High tide would be preferable.

It's a pleasant paddle from Scylla Bay in Como, where there's a good launching area and plenty of parking too. There are also several places around the area that hire out canoes & small boats.

If you're feeling fit, and/or have the time, there's also the super Woronora River Series of caches by Sky Dog not too far away.

Although probably not the most physically demanding cache (unless you try swimming it!) we've rated this as a 5* terrain as special equipment is required. Finally, make sure to take note of the clues inside the cache in order to find the bonus. Enjoy...
