Geocache Description:


“I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.”
― Jorge Luis Borges

Waiheke is often described as a paradise as well as being called the jewel of the Hauraki Gulf. Waiheke Library has hidden a small box geocache that contains:

  • a logbook with a question to answer – ‘What’s your paradise island book?’
  • a children’s ‘travelling book’ to swap
  • a fact sheet with a few interesting facts about Waiheke
  • and a swapable swag treasure – a ‘jewel’ for a ‘jewel’.

It is hidden down in Blackpool. It’s not on the beach, it’s not in a park, it’s not a dessert, but it is in a basin 😊.
