== Overview ==

Geocaches are placed by the local and visiting geocaching community around [[Montañita]] and [[Ayangue]], making these two towns the main geocaching locations on the route. Cache density is low compared to urban areas, but active caches do exist — typically in creative or scenic spots that reward the hunt with a good view or an interesting location.

== How to Find Caches ==

Use the '''geocaching.com''' app (free basic version available) or the official website to check current cache listings near your location. Search by map around Montañita or Ayangue. Cache status changes — some may be temporarily unavailable, muggled, or in need of maintenance. Check the recent logs before searching.

== Tips ==

* The coastal setting means many caches use waterproof containers — magnetic nanos under benches, larger containers tucked under rocks near the point
* The geocaching community here is small; if you place a new cache, it will be appreciated
* Combine with exploration of the headlands or town on foot — the cache locations are usually in places worth seeing anyway
