A Real Minelab Metal Detector. Not a Toy.

At the heart of every hunt is the GECKO, Minelab's genuine
metal detector, built for first-time treasure hunters.
Its 8-inch waterproof coil sweeps easily over grass, garden beds and shallow water, beeping the moment it finds something hidden below the surface.
 

  • 8-inch waterproof coil
  • Lightweight, easy grip design for kids & adults
  • Simple sweep-and-beep operation
  • Powered & ready with included AA batteries

Made to Play Again and Again

Swap roles, choose new hiding ground, or challenge your Seeker with clues and coordinate-based hints, Hide & Beep Treasure Hunt Game is designed for replay. Hide treasures deeper for a harder hunt, spread them through long grass, or reset the boundary in a new spot. Every hunt can be different, so the fun never runs out.

Set the Game

Use the four boundary markers to mark out your
treasure zone, about 5 m x 5 m, or whatever space you have available. The Seeker gets the detector and treasure bag ready.
 

Hide the Treasure

One player is the Hider, the other the Seeker. The Hider buries the nine treasures just below the surface (about 2 cm deep) or hides them in long grass, marking each spot on the treasure map.
No peeking!
