How to find it

The entrance is at map coordinates -2457, -1798, in the side of a grassy hill above the water, close to Suariwak Shrine. Look for the cave mouth under the rock overhang; a Blupee or a ring of light often marks them.

Inside the cave

Approach the cave mouth

Climb the grassy hillside above the water and look for the cave mouth under a rock overhang. Pick the Bomb Flowers and Brightcaps growing outside, then step in.

Collect the Bubbul Gem

The chamber is lit only by Brightbloom Seeds you find on the floor. Shoot the Bubbulfrog off the ceiling with an arrow and pick up the Bubbul Gem. A round opening at the far end looks out over the water if you want to leave that way.

Defeat the Stone Talus

The Stone Talus is the cave’s miniboss. Hit the glowing weak point on its body with arrows or Bomb Flowers until it collapses, then pick up the Amber, Opal and Diamond it drops.
