This cache has been archived and no longer exists. Please DO NOT visit this island, it is an ICUN A1 reserve and therefore the public should not set foot on this island. I (polofish - the cache owner) was made aware of this in January 2021 and have since archived the cache. Signs to indicate the sensitive nature of the island are being arranged. Stepping foot on the island during the bird breeding season can significantly impact the breeding of the sea birds on the island.

Pullen Island is a widlife reserve located off the coast of Horseshoe Bay, Port Elliot. In it's early history it provided shelter for vessels offloading produce from the River Murray and Goolwa, as Horseshoe Bay was the seaport for the River Murray. The island is a pristine natural environment and a nesting ground for numerous sea birds. Don't be surprised if you see them flying overhead with fish in their beaks to feed their young.
Pullen Island cannot be accessed by land. You'll need to take a kayak, sail, or motor boat across from Horseshoe bay, Crockery bay, or anywhere else nearby. Swimming to the island is not advisabe, however you can if you're fit and keen!
When on the island you'll find thousands of birds surrounding you and flying around, including juveniles. Try not to disturb them too much by walking through the centre of the island. Walking along the Northen face of the island on the rocks is the best way to access the cache location. The best place to bring your boats into the island is in the middle of the Northern face of the island as it is the most sheltered part.
The cache is a 400mL Sistema container, containing some necklaces and post it notes to kick off the swapsies.
