It’s not always your feet that do the work of taking you to a geocache. Sometimes geocachers paddle a kayak or canoe through pristine waters to hunt down a cache. Follow geocacher Claire Delavigne, known by the geocaching name Planet. She navigates through a Connecticut nature preserve and combines kayaking and geocaching. True to the world of geocaching, her adventure doesn’t go as planned.
Explore even more geocaching adventures in the Geocaching.com Lost & Found video gallery. You can go along on a heart racing five terrain/five difficulty geocache, see the geocache on the International Space Station or find out why a U.S. Army bomb disposal technician says geocaching kept him safer in Iraq.
Awesome! I own a whole bunch of kayak caches, so I know first hand the joys of combining these two activities. Thanx for the video!

Ive only been kayak caching once… but it was fun! There are not that many water-hides around here, but with fall approaching, I will certainly venture farther from home!
My only cache that I have hidden so far (GC2AY20) has been found only by kayak (or jetski)…. its located in the middle of a lake! (Lake Livingston in Texas).
Its a long kayak trip, sometimes on rougher waters- only the most avid kayak-cachers will attempt this! (Or hop on a Jet Ski and power your way to this cache.)

I have never been kayaking before. I leave for SC tomorrow. There are many kayak caches in SC. Perhaps I’ll give it a try.

This type of geocaching brings the hunt to a whole new level. This is a great way to put your geocaching skills to the test and travel the great outdoors in a different way. Just make sure you’re not traveling alone and always be prepared for the worst!
