If you're interested in geocaching you will find a wealth of knowledge and advice on the internet about how to join in, and develop your hobby. Here's a selection.
The Geocaching Association of Great BritainThe Geocaching Association of Great Britain (GAGB) is the leading UK Geocaching body, recognised by and acting on behalf of cachers. The association was established in 2003 to provide a voice for its members in the United Kingdom with the aim of establishing good geocaching practices, providing a focal point for public liaison and supporting the growth and enjoyment of Geocaching within the UK.
You can join the GAGB group on Facebook.
The world's largest geocaching website, and one of the biggest resources for geocachers all over the world. If you are intending to do any caching it is more-or-less obligatory to sign up for (free) membership of this website so you can download cache details. We upload all our public caches to this website.
GPS Utility is a PC software application that provides management and manipulation of GPS information. You can use it to transfer data to/from a GPS receiver and store the data in PC files in one of several text formats. Pinkeye Graphics recommends GPSU.
c:geo is an open source, full-featured, always ready-to-go client for geocaching.com (unofficial) and offers basic support for other geocaching platforms (like Opencaching). It is free to download and use, and does not require a web browser or exports - just download and start right away. Suitable for most Android devices. Pinkeye Graphics recommends c:geo for use. It is also available (unsupported) for BlackBerry.
If you have an Apple device you will probably need to use the official Geocaching.com app instead.
If you're coming to the Island to do some caching, you're in luck, we have loads of great public caches! Find out more about how to get here and where to stay at the offical Isle of Wight Tourism website.
