Welcome to Geocaching on Jekyll Island

Monday, July 21st, 2008

geocache_logo.gifGeocaching is an entertaining adventure game for gps users. Participating in a cache hunt is a good way to take advantage of the wonderful features and capability of a gps unit. Jekyll Island has placed several caches on the island in addition to some the public has placed. GPS users can then use location coordinates to find the caches. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something they should try to leave something for the cache.

If you haven’t ever geocached before, you can try it before buying your own GPS unit. You can rent one at the Jekyll Island Welcome Center! For only $20/day, rent a GPS unit and try your luck at finding some of the caches we’ve placed. The waypoints are already downloaded into the units for you! We even made a video that will show you the basics.
