+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 (edited) I'm putting together a bookmark list of tidal island caches, i.e those where access on foot is only possible at low tide, and would appreciate info on such caches. The current (very small) list is here. http://www.geocaching.com/bookmarks/view.a...e3-7275cc18f256 Edited January 5, 2007 by McKryton Quote

Here's one for the list.Burgh island Did anyone mention Burgh Island yet Quote
+Happy Humphrey Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 I think that there's one in Devon: Burger Island or something like that. Is that helpful? Also, this one is tidal, but disabled for the time being. Quote
+Nellies Knackers Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 If you like asparagus this one is good. Quote
+Birdman-of-liskatraz Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 Theres Constantine Bay thats pretty much an island when the tides in... and Monkey Island... and.. Has anyone mentioned Burgh Island up in Devon??? Quote
Deego Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 There are none near me in land locked north staffs :D Quote
+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 It's been a wet winter, just give it time Quote
OzzyUK Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 The Pelistry Toll on St Mary's in the Isles of Scilly gets cut off at high tide if that counts?? Not too sure its a seperate "island" though... Quote
+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 Hmm, interesting, I think it counts but I should probably make the trip to check and make sure, after all you can't be too careful. Quote

+t.a.folk Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 The tide is high I'm going home..GCHMBM Quote
+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 Ballast Island in Porthmadog harbour is another one. Looks like it has the same origins as "The Exotic Islets of Fife" Quote

There are 1 or 2 in Ireland I can think of in addition to Windsockers' cache Quote
+Firth of Forth Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 Go Forth on Cramond Island in the Firth of Forth is a great cache. Not done The Exotic Islets of Fife in the Firth of Tay yet, but it looks good too. Quote
+*mouse* Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 There's also Burryd Treasure in South Wales. Quote
+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 Ireland too or UK only? I've posted this as a public list for people who like these kind of caches so as many as possible please, both UK and Ireland. Quote
+fellsmanhiker Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 Here is another one,but check out the logs of Tashington and Camper-crew. GCQM9K Quote
+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 I reckon this one could count as well Hmm, all the successful visits were by boat, maybe a bit too extreme. Quote
+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 How about a second list, caches you need a boat for? Quote
+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 How about a second list, caches you need a boat for? I think somebody was already asking about kayak caches a few days ago. Quote
+bhodisatva Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 No-ones mentioned Burgh Island* *For a while anyways Quote
+Kryten Posted January 6, 2007 Author Posted January 6, 2007 Thanks for all the contributions, especially Burgh Island, if you have or know of any other tidal island caches please drop me an e-mail Quote
