Determining the cache coordinates:
To find the cache you must first calculate XXX and YYY from the clues for the coordinates S25 37.XXX E028 21.YYY by substituting the characters with numbers using A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4 and so forth. Remember that spaces between words do not count as a character but everything else does i.e. fullstop(.), comma(,)...

Clue #1:
After the entrance gate (S25 38.996 E28 21.810) there is a green sign with yellow character on the left hand side of the road.

XXX= ((a x b) + c) x d
where
a = Row 1 character 8
b = Row 2 character 10
c = Row 3 character 7
d = Row 4 character 7

The sum of each number in XXX should calculate to 8.

Clue #2:
At the location S25 37.789 E28 21.442 you will find a yellow sign with black characters.

YYY=((e x f) x g) + (h x i) + j
where
e= Row 1 character 11
f= Row 3 character 2
g= Row 4 character 6
h= Row 6 character 6
i= Row 7 character 16
j= Row 8 character 13

The sum of each number in YYY should calculate to 16.
