The Lost Treasure of Captain McTimbers - Can YOU Find It?

Sandie Beech has always known that her family had a rich history, but she never imagined that it included a notorious Scottish pirate, Captain Sheeva McTimbers. After discovering her late uncle's research and a tattered map, Sandie is convinced that her uncle was on the brink of finding a buried treasure left behind by the infamous captain. But she needs your help to follow the clues and track down the hidden hoard!

Embark on a thrilling Treasure Hunt through the scenic East Sands and Castle of St Andrews. This self-guided adventure will take you through the town's historic landmarks and breathtaking views, including the harbour, a graveyard, the Byre theatre, and St Andrew's Castle.

As you solve the sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments, you'll follow in the footsteps of Captain McTimbers and discover the location of his buried treasure. But be careful-rumour has it that the captain's ghost still haunts the area, protecting his treasure from those who dare to seek it.
