One evening on a geocaching walk, we spotted a barely noticeable structure that broke the leafy silhouette of the trees. Upon a closer look, we were rewarded with an unexplored (by us at least) location.
We did some checks and found we had stumbled upon the Batu Berlayar Battery. Completed in 1892, it consists of S.W. facing gun emplacements, watch towers and fortified rooms most likely used as ammunition stores. The battery served mainly as a lookout post and defence for Keppel Harbour against motor torpedo boats.
Wp1 brings you to a post war Harbour Board signal tower. It stands next to the red and white radio tower. Find a clue to the final here.
Wp 2. As you enjoy a bird's eye view of the surrounding waters, check the left side and get your 2nd clue here. With these, you will be able to find the cache. All towers are a grenade's throw from each other.
We enjoyed doing this in the late afternoon towards early evening. While afternoon was bright enough to take in the whole place, evening brought a whole cacophony of insect sounds and a gloom so suited to the place. But whatever time it is, we hope u have a blast with this one. (Only thing that spoiled the place was the graffitti.)
Best done in dry weather.

There are elevated places without guard rails so be careful at all times.
