Geocache Description:

The second of a series of ‘nano’ caches along the waterfront of five of the seven Emirates. This one is along the Dubai Creek.

The sea continues to be a central part of the history and culture of the United Arab Emirates. Each of the emirates faces the sea and much of the daily life of the country takes place near to the sea-shore. Every emirate thus has a corniche where the public can relax, stroll around, watch and be seen. Perfect places for a cache!

 

This is the second of a series of six caches. The series comprises of the following caches:

Abu Dhabi Promenade, GC1BXCK

Dubai Promenade (this cache), GC1BXPY

Ajman Promenade, GC1BZ3H

Ras al Khaimah Promenade, GC1C23V

Fujairah Promenade, GC1C9V7

UAE Promenade, GC1CFAY

 

The Dubai Promenade cache is a nano placed on a fire hydrant in the walking area along the Dubai Creek. As the nano has been hidden on a new location please walk 50 m to the East along the boulevard to the other side of the Sheikh Obaid house and take note of the prominent combination of six letters and numbers on the transformer sub-station as this will be part of the clue leading to the eighth and final cache.

Although the cache has been hidden in a discreet area, please be aware of muggles Eleven nano's have been lost during the lifetime of this cache because successful cachers have not been careful when repositioning the container. Please replace the cache exactly where you have found it. Please log your name in the (small) space provided as many more visitors would like to add their name after you! Thanks.
