Looking for an adventure with some history, well this is the cache is for you
The following is from the Discover Tasmania website. "Recherche Bay, in the far south-east of Tasmania, is a broad bay of deep blue and turquoise water fringed by sweeping white-sand beaches and thick forest.
A section of its south-eastern foreshore is part of the Southwest National Park, but until recently a densely wooded peninsula in the north-east of the bay was threatened with logging that would have changed the character of the area profoundly.
This 143-hectare (353-acre) area, which includes remnants of a French garden established by members of Bruni D'Entrecasteaux's 1792 expedition. .....
The peninsula can only be reached by boat. While it is possible to disembark at a small beach, there are no established trails through the extremely thick forest. The area really is best appreciated from the water, aboard a cruise or from your kayak. Archaeological work is being undertaken by French and Australian teams, and it is hoped that an interpretation centre will one day be established at Moss Glen.
This cache was planted whilst ashore from a yacht, but given the importance of the area to Tasmania's and Australia's history and the sheer beauty of the beach, the area deserved a cache. It could be a while till it is found though.
The cache is a medium sized lunch box style container; with no swaps (Sorry didn't have any with me). It should be easy to find once you get to the area. Image of the area follow
