This Cache is dedicated to the Cerro Gordo Cache in Southern Spain
which we had the pleasure of completing in June
2005.
We highly recommend doing all three Caches in this series in one
go, as this makes a lovely walk taking in headland and seafront
across the Island. It would be very easy to make a day-trip of
this, Caching along the way while enjoying time at the Beach, on
the rides and taking in breathtaking scenary along the headland.
The series:
POV -I- Nell's Point of View
Takes in a beautiful piece of headland overlooking the seafront on
Barry Island.
POV -II- Friars Point of View
A short walk across the seafront from POV -I- and takes in another
nice piece of headland on the Island overlooking Barry Harbour.
POV -III- A Quick Knap
A short way from POV -II- this can be accessed across Barry Harbour
when the tide is out (a great walk among the boats, being careful
to stay on the drier and firmer areas of sand), or across the
causeway if the tide is in. This one can alternatively be done
individually as a Cache 'n Dash if you wish, with limited parking
available along the front of the Knap.
The series can be done in any order, but it is highly recommended
to park at the top of the Island among the new housing development
on Nell's Point, and then proceed to do I, II and III in order.
The Cache is a small tupperware container containing logbook,
pencil, pen and a few other bits and pieces.
As this is a popular area with the general public, please try to
ensure the Cache is rehidden exactly as you found it, making sure
it is well out of sight. Thanks!
NOTE:
You will need to make your way around something anti-clockwise at
the Cache site to reach the Cache in a sensible fashion, and care
should be taken in this area, especially if Caching with kids.
POV -I- views:
Enjoy!
Cache In Trash Out
It seems these areas are prime spots for litter unfortunately,
and although there are dedicated Litter-pickers along some of these
stretches, they often don't quite get to those crevices that us
Geocachers poke around in, so if you do happen to bring a bag, it
would be great to 'Cache In and Trash Out' while you're
there!
