What’s the activation code for my Trackable?
May 16th, 2013When we send out our trackable geocoins or tags we try to include the activation code either with the tag, or stamped on your packing slip. Sometimes it gets missed and you’re left with a trackable you can’t activate!
We get this question all the time: “what’s the activation code for my trackable?” Here’s how to easily find the activation code: First you log into your geocaching.com account. Next, head to the play tab at the top of the page, when you hover over it you will see find trackables, click on that. Under Geocoins you will see retrieve an activation code, click that. It will ask you to enter the tracking number, when you press go it will reveal the activation code. Then you can activate your shiny new coin or tag and drop it in a geocache!
You can also head to this page: http://landsharkz.ca/sharkz/activate which has a link to the activation code retriever, just click on this link or bookmark it.
Of course you can always contact us if you’re having trouble with your Landsharkz trackables; we just want to make it easier for you to geocache!
Don’t forget to check out our newest coin! Find it here! 
Does Landsharkz have a store you can visit?
May 13th, 2013Does Landsharkz have a store that you can visit? This is a question we get all the time. The quick and easy answer is YES! Since we’re a small business it’s a little more complicated than just dropping by when we’re open.
We love to have visitors and we understand that it’s nice to hold and see that geocoin or cache container before you buy it. If you would like to visit the Landsharkz store you will need to contact us either by phone or email and tell us when you would like to come by.
What to expect when coming to the Landsharkz store:
First, you will feel like you’re going the wrong way, it’s a residential neighbourhood and the roads are a bit narrow.
Second, there isn’t a lot of parking, but feel free to come down the driveway and park where there’s space.
Third, Tieka the geocaching dog lives here and she will probably bark. But, her bark is worse than her bite so don’t be scared.
Fourth, you will be in geocaching heaven and find things you didn’t intend to buy…just go ahead and treat yourself!

Geocaching on Salt Spring Island
February 19th, 2013Our first real ‘Geocaching With Landsharkz’ video is loaded to YouTube and our fingers are crossed that you’ll enjoy it! We’re learning how to shoot video that’s going to be useful when it goes to the cutting table (Monique’s computer) and be entertaining to watch.
For this video, we spent a Saturday exploring Ganges, the Saturday Market, local and provincial parks, public art, and of course riding the ferry. Tieka came along, and after looking at the footage, we realize she made a furry fool of herself, so we left that bit in. See if you can catch her in action!
If you have ideas of things you’d like to see in video, please let us know via a blog comment or post on our Facebook page. We’ll accommodate if we can and give you credit for your idea where due!
