Geocache Description:

This cache is 'hidden in plain sight' so, despite the fact that you are on a remote part of an off-shore island, you will need to be extra stealthy. The cache is a camo container and there is only room for a log. You will need to bring tweezers and BYOP. A cloak of invisibility would be useful for all the muggles you will encounter, even if most of them are 'twitchers'!


The ferry times to the island of Rathlin are well published online. It is a great place to visit for the day or for a longer stay. You can travel to the famous RSPB bird sanctuary and viewing platform, walk around the island enjoying the local scenery, viewing the local seal population or simply taking in the 'island time' atmosphere. 

To find this cache you will need to make the 4.5 mile trek from the harbour on foot, by bike or by Puffin Bus. The cache is close to the drop off point so may be awash with muggles. It is hidden at ground level in a camoflaged 'container'. Please be careful when searching and when placing it back, please leave it exactly as you found it, thank you. 

I need to say a word or two of thanks to Francis on the Puffin Bus for the background info. Also to Hilary and Alan who, on 5 minutes acquaintance, leant us a vehicle so we could more easily scope out cache sites on the island. You will certainly meet some really lovely people on this island, thank you all for your help.
