Geocache Description:


This cache is not at the above listed coordinates! To find the correct coordinates of this cache, you must first find 'Scuba Lodge XS' and use the info on this container to complete the following coordinates to find your way to the waypoint:

N 12 06.XXX
W 068 55.YYY

Now that you have found the waypoint, you will find a yellow text on a nearby wall. Use the numbers in the sign to complete the coordinates to find your way to the final location/geocache:

N 12 06.200
W 0B8 55.5CA

A = ? B = ? C = ? Look at the three numbers that are highlighted (in yellow!) and fill out the missing numbers.


Life is better at the beach, isn't it...? It’s the perfect place to ditch technology (except for, of course, your GPS device), listen to the waves hit the shore, de-stress and restore the soul.

The Pietermaai District is a vibrant area known for its brightly painted colonial houses. The area used to be run-down and vacant, but in recent years many of the old historic buildings have been restored. Today, the district is home to boutique hotels, companies, and a variety of restaurants and bars. You wouldn't expect to find a beach in this part of town, but… here it is!

The cache shouldn’t be too hard to find, plus, it’s a fun way to discover this colorful, historic, neighborhood. Make sure to bring sunscreen, a pen, and your phone to snap some jealous-making pictures along the way. The mural art that you will encounter offers great photo opportunities.

Don't worry about the beach being open from 10:00am onwards, the waypoint is accessible 24/7. The final location is also accessible 24/7 although I'd recommend to do this geocache during the day to not miss out on the vibrant colors of the buildings and the mural art you will encounter.

PS: When we first activated this geocache, the three numbers were hidden in a mural art. The mural art is now gone but the numbers can now be found in a sign instead.
