Geocache Description:

Q

This is an event which will mean an early start on International EarthCache day 2014!


The event is at Herne Bay to hunt for some fossils which is dependant on the tides!

So as the tide is lowest in morning The event will be from
7.30 AM - 9.30 AM on Sunday 12th October 2014

Low tide is at 9:09am so it's best to end searching around then as the tide comes back in very quickly.

Sunrise is at 7:13am so if anyone wants to be there for that you are more than welcome. The sun will rise over Reculver direction so should be quite impressive if clear!

Hopefully within that time span there will be plenty of fossil finds! Details of a nearby EarthCache are on this pageโ€ฆ

Sink Your Teeth Into This

Breakfast of croissants and other pastries will be supplied, on first come basis, but please feel free to bring along some breakfast too. And don't forget to bring a flask of hot drinks.

Due to the time and location there is not any facilities so please be aware of that fact!

Weather may affect the hunt so come prepared to the conditions and we should still be able to do the fossil hunt

Something different for a Sunday morning! Come and find a fossil!

Please visit this site with caution. The sea and tides can be dangerous. If you cannot make this event then look at other times, tide times for the area are available here...
