With the treasure map in hand, your next step is to uncover the hidden loot. Descend from the lighthouse and head towards the nearby river.

Proceed to the southern end of the bridge and venture into the riverbed. Swim westward to find an opening that leads to a cave. Inside, on solid ground, you'll find a chest containing the treasure: the unique Wind and Wave shield.
