+Birdman-of-liskatraz Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 There's quite a group of kayaking geocachers down here in Devon/Cornwall. I'm just thinking it would be a good idea to produce a Bookmark list of caches that are doable by canoe. I'll get it started, but if anyone has any ideas of ones to ad then that would be great. I've also started a Facebook Group for Kayaking Cachers.. Kayaking Geocachers on Facebook Steve/Birdie Quote Link to comment

I've also started a Facebook Group for Kayaking Cachers.. Kayaking Geocachers on Facebook Steve/Birdie Can we extend this to by boat? As a Solent Yachty I often try and pick up caches whilst out and about... I am sure there are plenty of us... Then there are ones down canals etc... Great Idea! Will help with Solent ones where I can.... Quote Link to comment
+Jacaru & Wemnog Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Extending by boat, or at least canadian canoe would be good please. Quote Link to comment
+Vodor and Scorsby Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Polkerris paddle 1 & 2 are the obvious ones I can think of GC2APM6 & GC2APM2 There was a 5/5 on an island on the south coast but I cant find that one now. May be archived. Will keep looking! Quote Link to comment
+Birdman-of-liskatraz Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 Happy to add boat and Canal boat ones, but I suspect some that are reachable by Canal Boat won't be easy to reach from a canoe/kayak? Could it be made clear when you suggest a cache, what it's reachable by? Quote Link to comment

+The Blorenges Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 St Herbert's Isle on Derwent Water, only accessible by canoe/kayak/rowing boat/windsurfboard/some deities. (Note Sandvika's Bookmark on the above cache page for other Watery Places) MrsB Quote Link to comment

+Jacaru & Wemnog Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 There is also Hippo's Below, we haven't attempted this one yet but intend to. The logs make enjoyable reading. GC1C47M Quote Link to comment
+*mouse* Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 One of my favourites...... Treasure Island Quote Link to comment
+Jonovich Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 I've a cache series of 7 kayakable caches only accessible from the water along a mile of the river Welland through Stamford. Search on "Sneaking around Stamford" or lookup GC1HZ5Z, GC1HZ6K, GC1HZ6X, GC1HZ77, GC1HZ7N, GC1HZ7R & GC1YVNJ Nothing special, just an excuse to paddle this quaint little stretch of water through a lovely little town.

+martlakes Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Several on Flipflopnick's bookmark list of island caches. Some can be walked to at low tide but others would definitely need a boat. Island Caches Swallows & Amazons on Coniston is a classic. GCN9GA Quote Link to comment
+burtsbodgers Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...60-62c642b92b12 Is a boat/kayak cache. Still trying to pluck up the courage to do it! Quote Link to comment
+The Other Stu Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...60-62c642b92b12 Is a boat/kayak cache. Still trying to pluck up the courage to do it! That's a long way to go for a cache that almost certainly isn't there - the last log on 24th September implied that it's often found by muggles and then 2 DNFs. Quote Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 There's a Kayak series around Guernsey.

+Birdman-of-liskatraz Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 My quick attempt at a Bookmark of Canoe/Kayak/Boat accessible Geocaches, I'll add more as I find them, and some comments once I've read the logs. Thanks for the suggestions: Birdies Kayak Accessible Caches Bookmarks Quote Link to comment
