Geocache Description:

Summary
The 4th wave of the Blackrock Power Trail starts at Sandycove Point and heads towards Dalkey & Killiney.
 

The Cache
The 28th cache in the BRPT reveals the beautiful Bulloch Harbour (well at high tide and on a sunny day that is).  There are 2 local harbour inhabitants known as Barry & Barney who also frequent the area looking for food.  They are very large individuals so be sure to keep your distance unless you have a Peace Offering in the form of fish or bread.   Barry and Barny are fully grown large grey seals – but they don’t mind posing for photos.
 
In order to reach GZ you need to walk out along the pier beyond the Dublin Sea Angling Club to the published Trail Entry Waypoint; after which it is a short hop over the rocks into the Granite Bowl.  As always around Dublin Bay, tackling the cache at High Tide will add to the drama of the experience.  And for the more adventureous of you, keep an eye out for the very cool waterslide over the large sloping rock that leads into a narrow shute and the water below.
 
You are looking for a 50mm tube with camo tape.
 
 
The Blackrock Power Trail Series (BRPT)
The series started its life in Idrone Terrace on Dublin Bay behind Blackrock Village and has now spread both north-west and south-east from the original Cache.
 
 
Good hunting!
