Geocache Description:

After Ultimate West and Ultimate North, it seems that my job is not completed without Ultimate East and Ultimate South; thus this brings me to the other sides of the island to accomplish the task.
 

  
Since this fifth largest island connects to the main island by a causeway, the "Ultimate" title shall include the land here. By the way, there is other cache nearby, so this is the best location I can award this "Ultimate" title to this GZ.

What is "Atas" ? Some of you maybe wondering ...

In local term, "Atas" means "high class" - the word is derived from the Malay word meaning "upstairs".

When you arrive at the GZ, you will have the real world of "Atas"........ for your feeling, stomach, credit card, etc ... !

Relocation dated 6 July 2019 : the "Atas" estate had geared up its security level; thus shifting the cache to the other side of the "Tanjong". So what is "Tanjong" ? It mean "CAPE or POINT" - this reflects best where the cache is hidden now. Safety warning : the GZ is just beside the deep end of the sea, so safety must always be in mind when going for it!

  


This was one of my "Atas" drink taken on the evening of placing the cache - "Old Diplomatic" at one of the nearby restaurant.


Enjoy and have fun to be "Atas" !



BYOP, wear proper footwear as you may have to climb onto the rocky cliff and bash through the vegetation (remember is a T5 cache).

Check the tide table for your planned trip "https://www.nea.gov.sg/weather/tide-timings"; always be safe.
