Geocache Description:


Arr Ye landlubbers! Once upon a time Mary Hyde, the famous pirate captain, sailed around the Baltic sea from St. Petersburg to Tallinn and all the way to Stockholm. During her voyage on her ship Sandra she landed Äggskär - the Africa Minor island - with her loyal first mate Knife! and the rest of the crew. They were looking for the Äggskärs Stjärna and the treasure of Saint Helena that was supposedly hidden somewhere in these islands. After long and sweaty search they finally succeeded. Afterwards she hid her own treasure, Emerald of Äggskär, the Royal stone from St. Petersburg, to an unknown location on the island. All that is left is a piece of map that was later found between an old and wet logbook of Sandra.

As in original game of Star of Africa, you will find something special when you go to Cape Town. In this case the cache coordinates will be given to you there.

This is basically a multi-cache, first you have to go to Cape Town starting coordinates and then using the map link, the Intercache website, (https://www.intercaching.com/intercache/play.php?gameId=2650 ) you will find the final cache location. (Don't) Break your leg!

Cache on the island is terrain 3 and difficulty is about 2.5. Mobile phone is required with internet browser and geolocation should be allowed!
