Geocache Description:

This cache is located on an Island in Tauranga Harbour. If its low tide you can easily and safely walk to it, if it's high tide you could swim there. Dog owners beware of rat bait stations.

Good parking at the bottom of 14th Avenue, from here it is an easy 5 minute walk.

Follow one of the tracks up onto the Island and look for twin NZ Christmas trees.
