Description   

About 6 years ago I've visited this fantastic coast the first time with my former wife, offering a great view from the cliffs.
At that time I didn't know nothing about geocaching. Now I've placed a cache over there, because the high cliffs are among the most spectacular ones I know of. The nearby lighthouse is very small and almost invisible, entry is forbidden.

When arriving at the lighthouse and leaving your car, walk about 40 meters back along the left side of the tamarc road. Under two big trees you will find a heap of stones, covering the cachebox.
Beware of the cliffs, there is no need to trespass the fence on their edge.
Please hide the cachebox well again after finding it.
And please don't put any flammable items into the cache, just to avoid a fire hazard !!

The cache is a deep freeze box ( 8 * 15 * 6 cm), it initially contained:

  • cachenote (please do not remove)
  • logbook (please do not remove)
  • pencil and sharpener (please do not remove)
  • smiley stamp
  • bear stamp
  • wristlet
  • hairclips

(V 1.01 (fire hazard added))
(V 2.00 (new hiding place, adapted description)
Small note on cache maintenance: In accordance with the guidelines, the local maintenance will be done by a friend on the island, living about 20 km away. E-mail address has been documented with geocaching.com.

OC-Team Archived 03 September 2018 mic@ has archived the cache

english (short): This listing is archived on geocaching.com (GCX681) by the owner himself, so I do the same thing here.

german (long): Bitte bei Statusänderungen, die bei geocaching.com durchgeführt werden, auch immer hier den Status ändern.
Dieser Cache ist auf geocaching.com (/GCX681) archiviert und hier nicht mit dem Attribut "OC only" versehen. Das letzte Funddatum liegt lange zurück und das Ownerlog auf geocaching.com läßt darauf schliessen, dass der Cache nicht weiter existieren soll. Aus diesem Grunde archiviere ich ihn auch hier. Sollten sich später neue Aspekte ergeben, so kann dieses Listing durch den Owner selbständig über ein "kann gesucht werden"-Log reaktiviert werden.
Bei Unklarheiten oder Fragen kannst du gerne mich oder das Team kontaktieren.

Found Recommended 28 June 2007 Hynz found the geocache

I'm undecided if I would recommend this cache because of the view to the coast or because of the gigantic flag. Both are breathtaking. Thanks for the cache. no trade
