We did every cache on the island in two days, plus some on the mainland. Start with the caches near the ferry landing so you beat the crowds once off the boat. Do the stuff along the shoreline first. You can head up and get the things near Arch Rock, then come back down and continue around. When we got to the other side of the island, we went up on top and tackled those. You get to see parts of the island only the locals visit, which is fun. Finish up around the bottom and enjoy the ride. We hope to go back, as many of the ones we’d found are archived and new ones placed. Have fun!

things to do
rent a horse and buggy for a ride around the area
then go into the grand hotel and look around

Bring your bike if you have one, it will make the trip around the island easier. They also have them on the island for rent. last time I checked it was an extra $8 bucks to bring your bike with you. or hourly rental on the island.
