Palia Chest Locations Guide

Our Palia Chest Locations Guide will show you all of the places where you can find the free troves of loot that are scattered throughout the world.

It's hard to earn money and make a living, and Palia is no different. You're going to need to Hunt, Fish, and Garden if you want to earn Gold, and you'll spend plenty of time Foraging and Mining for the other things you need. There are, however, occasional opportunities to get some free loot with minimal effort on your part -- read on to learn more!

Palia Chests Have Decent Loot Inside

One of the easy ways to get some loot in Palia's early game is by finding Chests. These trunks full of treasure are placed all over the world, though not all of them are obvious.

Typically, Chests will be hidden in nooks and crannies, in caves, or at the top of tall pillars. Paying careful attention to your surroundings can be rewarding! These Chests are only available once, so you should always aim to collect them as soon as you can.

I've also noticed that Chests emit a low humming sound; if you hear a strange buzz, it may be a box full of loot that's hidden just around the corner.

Palia Chests - Kilima Locations

There are 20 Kilima Chests to find, but collecting 12 will unlock the Kilima Caches Achievement and Accomplishment, netting you a nice map for your house as well as 30 Renown. Here's a map of where to find each one:

Kilima has 20 Chests spread throughout the starting area. Most of them can be accessed on foot, but you're going to need the Glider to get to some of the tougher locations, and there are 3 that you'll have to perform extra actions:

1. Phoenix Shrine (Phoenix Falls) - Increase your Focus Bonus and a chest will appear
2. Dragon Shrine (Maji's Hollow) - Light all of the Calming Incense
3. Remembrance Garden - Finish Paying Respects in the Remembrance Garden. This is a secret that requires you to interact with all of the shrines.

It should be noted that there are at least 4 Chests within the Temple of the Waves near the Phoenix Shrine. Carefully explore the area to find as many as you can!

Palia Chests in Bahari Bay

There are 34 total Bahari Bay chests to find, but you'll only need 30 to unlock the Plundering the Bay Achievement and Accomplishment, which nets you a map of Bahari Bay and 60 Renown. Here's where to find all 34 chests:

Bahari Bay has far more chests than Kilima, and it gets worse -- it's also more challenging to reach some of the chests. Singularity 6 really loves to put Chests on top of tall pillars. In those cases, your best bet will be to climb nearby cliffs, jump off, and carefully glide down to your destination.

Similar to Kilima - there are 4 Chests that require you to complete secrets to collect them. Here's each one (marked by number on the Map above):

1. You'll have to complete the Twins Puzzle for this one, pressing the first Glyph on the map location above, and then the second glyph will be found between the two dots east of  the Old Lighthouse.
2. You'll have to complete Prismbeard's Voyage, which will have you interact with 4 different statues with books in front of them. Completing all 4 will unlock this chest for pickup.
3. You'll have to complete One Last Walk, which will have you finding 7 different Tablets across the map.
4. You'll need to complete the Lost Wisdom Quest, finding all 4 Phoenix Statues littered across Bahari Bay.
