Geocache Description:


A cache hidden in Tel Aviv Port, not far from Tel Aviv Promenade.

October 2018 update: Area is not accessible. But this is tempotary. If you pass by (it is the promenade and the port after all), please log what is the current condition.

About the place:

Welcome to TLV port. This modest port was built in 1936 as a substitute to the Jaffa port. It hasn't been used for decades and the area around was neglected, until a great rennovation made it the attractive place it is today, with many brand stores, caffes and restaurants, a farmers market, playground and a great wooden promenade. Now you can walk from north of the Yarkon river all the way to south of Jaffa by the sea without interruption. Recommended!

----------------------------

You will spot the big crane from afar. This 80 year old historic crane was rennovated back to its original state 10 years ago.

About the cache:

Cache is hidden right inside the crane, near ground level. That was the only spot i could find which is not visible from any angle. You need to bend over to reach, be careful. I could reach easily, but if you find it too hard, think twice if you should attempt it.

Watch your head when going under the crane. Do not climb!

Cache is a 5ml magnetic tube.
