Muistsel ajal põletati telliseid ikka seal, kus tooraine lähedal oli. Tärkma savine rand sobis selleks hästi ning seal põletatud telliseid kasutati muu hulgas Turu ja Helsinki kesklinna ehitamisel, aga neid viidi ka Riiga ja mujale. Aare on peidetud ühe tellisepõletusahju varemete lähedale, mis nagu meie mälestistele kombeks, meenutab nüüdseks esmasel vaatlusel pigem pinnavormi kui inimtekkelist ehitist. Põletusahjust veidi põhja pool on näha maa sees rohkelt auke, kust savi ammutati ning umbes 80 meetrit põhja pool asub kohalik "soolaelu", mille kohta saavad huvilised lähemalt lugeda näiteks Tärkma ajaloo- ja kultuuriblogist (vt link).
Aardeni on Tärkma sadama parklast linnulennult umbes 750 meetrit. Teekond kulgeb üle tarastatud rannakarjamaa, kus olenevalt aastaajast võivad olla loomad ja/või väga märg ja mudane maa. Teel tuleb ületada ka mitu kraavi, kust hea hooga üle hüpata saab. Soovitan kanda kummikuid või häid saapaid. Suvel võib seal üpris kuiv olla.
NB! Aare, saviaugud ja soolaelu asuvad riigimaal, kuid sinna saamiseks sadama parklast tuleb minna üle eramaade. Palun kasutada kallasrada (kes ei tea, mis see on, leiab info riigi teataja lingilt/rmk kodulehelt vms)
Põhjalikum seletus kuidas aaret leida: seisa näoga kirdesse nii, et jääd kahe eraldiseisva kadaka vahele (vt spoilerpilt). Sinu ees on grupp mände, mille all on kadakad. Kõnni otse männialuste põõsaste vahele ja pööra vasakule. Kohe esimese kadakapõõsa keskel männiokaste all ongi aare! Peidukohta pääseb lihtsasti, pole vaja läbi kadakavõsa tungida ega kogu maad üles kaevata.

In the olden days bricks were made where raw materials were at hand. The clay rich soil on the beaches and coastal pastures of Tärkma was well suited for brick production. Bricks made in Tärkma were used to build the city centres of Turku and Helsinki in Finland and Riga - the capital of Latvia. The cache is hidden near an old brick burning furnace which nowadays looks more like a part of landscape than something human-made. A little north from the furnace ruins you can see many small depressions in the ground created by digging up clay for making bricks. About 80 m north of the cache is a shallow lake-like body of water which was used to produce salt from seawater. There's a good amount of information on all the aforementioned topics available in Estonian, which I can't translate unfortunately.
It's about 750 metres to the cache from the parking lot. The journey takes you across a coastal pasture which may be very wet and muddy and/or have animals depending on the season. There are several ditches on the way which you can jump over. I recommend wearing wellies or good high waterproof boots. In the summer it's quite dry.
NB! The cache is hidden on public land, but in order for you to get there you have to cross private land! It is allowed by law for anyone to cross private fenced land as long as you stay no more than 10 metres from the sea. That's the best place to walk anyways, because it's a little higher from the surroundings. Also watch out for the animals - they might be curious. Don't stress about them too much!
Here's how to find the cache: the cache is at the coordinates. Stand facing NE so that you see two independent juniper bushes and in between them a little further away a group of pine trees with juniper bushes underneath them. Walk straight through the independent bushes and in between the more distant bushes under the pines. Look to your left. The cache is hidden in the middle of a juniper bush. It is buried under pine needles and some sticks. You don't have to plow through juniper brush, nor dig the ground. It's all very simple, just look and feel! ;) Enjoy!
