Geocache Description:


North West Bay Sea Scouts was established roughly 20-30 years ago (exact date unknown) and has Joeys, Cubs, Scouts and Venturers sections. Their meeting places are the boat shed at the end of Snug Beach, and the community hall in this area. This cache was placed with Cubs age Geokids (8 - 11 years) in mind.

This is a puzzle cache. To solve it, you will need to know some morse code. I’m sure resourceful and clever Geokids will have no trouble with this. To hear the coded message, follow this link. Have a pencil and paper handy to take down the message.

Once you have decoded it, you will be left with a message in the format S XX XX.XXX E XXX XX.XXX. These are the coordinates of the cache. Good luck!

At the time of placing the cache contains a writing stick and a small selection of Scouting swap badges, so bring a badge to swap if you have them. It is not far from a road and involves just a little scrambling.
