Geocache Description:


Katiki Point Lighthouse (built in 1878) stands on Katiki Point Historic Reserve/Te Raka-a-Hineatea. Close by is the site of the old Te Raka-a-Hineatea Pa. The reserve is vested in Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu who manage the reserve in conjunction with Te Rūnanga o Moeraki. Large numbers of New Zealand fur seals/kekeno haul out to rest on the rocky platforms around Katiki Point and Moeraki Peninsula.

This is the main breeding area in North Otago. The cache is a 50 ml plastic container with log book only, bring your own pen/pencil. At time some of the local "residents" may be close to the cache site so take care. It may be prudent to just admire the sights and grab the cache on another day!!.
