The Sharkz Store was a must visit on my Victoria BC trip, any geocacher living on or visiting the west coast needs to make a trip or three here! They recently moved to a new location and while I did not see the old one, this spot is on the water with a beautiful harbour view! Well, the sun could have been out and the tide maybe in BUT, it was beautiful nonetheless!
Alas, I guess with all the excitement I neglected taking a photo of the actual storefront or of the inside! But this sandwich board sign ensured we knew exactly where we were.
And of course there was an extra large and super fun geocache just outside! A small mystery to solve so that not just any ‘muggle’ could break into it, we managed to figure it out.
All kinds of goodies inside! I may have grabbed a trackable or two and left another (my Mile 0 to Mile 0) behind!
Picked up some new trackables to send out on travel adventures. I’ll have to attach a companion to the shark and Signal the Frog before sending them on their way! Beaver Dude is already well on his way to his destination, even if he’s taking a scenic route. Why not get side-tracked and visit as many new and far away and exciting (and even not so exciting) places as possible?
Also snagged a SWAG bag and a new Beaver Dude personal trackable. Not sure that 900 finds pin is quite for me, maybe I’ll award it to myself one day or find someone else getting close to that milestone. But I like the patches and decal!
Saw this geocaching stencil and had to get it. It’s for all those geocaches I’m going to hide eventually, haha. You never know when a stencil will come in handy… Also good to have a properly labeled cache so people can be sure they’ve found the correct item.
I have ordered online a few times from Landsharkz previously and this was my first ever visit to the storefront. It did not disappoint and I look forward to returning whenever I’m in Victoria BC!
