Geocache Description:

A small waterproof container hidden in beautiful Nonsuch Bay.

Just off the east coast of Antigua is Green Island, an uninhabited, unspoilt hideaway particularly popular for its excellent snorkeling. There are plenty of anchorages dotted around this quiet little island and an abundance of birdlife to spot, such as the red billed tropic birds and pelicans to name a few.

Just off the east side of the island is Nonsuch Bay, a beautiful natural harbor. The bay’s clear waters are protected by a barrier reef and home to occasional dolphin and turtle. Nonsuch Bay is an area loved by sailors from all over the world because of its tranquillity and constant sea breeze.

Hidden on the northern most spur of land on the island is a small cache for you to discover. This cache is approachable from either the bay or sea side. It is about 20 feet above the high tide line and has excellent views. A quick find is possible if you're wearing shoes, long pants and long sleeves. Progress will be slower barefoot in shorts!

Great beach landings are available very near the hide on the sheltered bay side. Boat rides to the island are often available to the public at Harmony Hall (resort-restaurant-art gallery) or possibly other Nonsuch bay resorts. Enjoy this beautiful area and good luck on your hunt!
