Geocache Description:

This cache is a well hidden large waterproof container in a location that has only one (dry) way in and out. Carefully review the cache description and attributes for hazards and recommendations.

This cache requires some walking and a small bit of climbing. Both of these activities can be more difficult at times depending on the weather and the East China Sea tide condition. Prior planning using a tide table is highly suggested. Low tide is optimum but up until two hours before and after should be good, though no guarantee is implied. Below is a link that will give you an idea of when (and when not) to attempt this cache.

Tide Table Prediction

Directions: From KAB, take Route 58 North. After the Kadena rotary, take Route 6/Cape Zanpa. A few kilometers past Torii Station, you'll come to an intersection with a fork bearing to the left, off Route 6. Take this left. When you pass an auto shop with a Subaru sign, take a left on the next paved road. Follow the red arrow Gala signs onto the road that leads to the ocean. Then turn to the right and drive about 700 meters until you reach the Gala. Parking is available there and down the ramp by the marina. The posted coordinates will bring you to a small cove where you should begin your search. Best Advice: Approach from the marina.
