Geocache Description:


An easy cache to find hidden in the vicinity of the lesser know Salina Catacombs.

The Salina Catacombs are a cluster of small catacombs located near the Church of the Annunciation in Salina, Naxxar, in Malta. Although small when compared to the catacombs of St. Paul and St. Agatha in Rabat, they are an important record of the sizeable community that must have lived in the area in around the last half of the first millennium AD. The catacombs open on to a low ridge facing a now lost Roman harbour, making the small site archaeologically important.

The cache is not hidden inside the catacombs, however they are worth exploring. Look out especially for the ornate carvings surrounding certain tombs.

Container is slightly larger than the usual size on the island, can definitely fit a TB or two.
