Assassins Creed Black Flag Resynced Explorer Outfit Guide

The Explorer Outfit is a cosmetic costume obtained by looting an unmarked underwater chest at coordinates (28, 293) north of Corozal. Edward Kenway equips the suit to wear classic white hooded assassin robes with red trim across the Caribbean.

Where Is the Explorer Outfit Located in Chinchorro?

The Explorer Outfit chest is an unmarked submerged container resting on the seabed at coordinates (28, 293). This location sits inside a secluded oceanic cove along the western waters of the Chinchorro territory, situated directly north of the fishing settlement of Corozal.

Unlike standard collectible boxes marked across the Caribbean, this chest never generates an icon on your main world map or ship compass. Community member -Holliday uncovered the chest early on Reddit before official schedule announcements concluded. As detailed in the IGN guide, this container served as the third secret location for Ubisoft's community treasure hunt series. Some player logs report coordinates varying slightly between (28, 291) and (28, 293), yet all point directly toward the seabed around the same massive limestone rock formation protruding above the waterline.

Opening this specific container awards two separate items at the same moment:

• The Explorer Outfit for Edward Kenway's personal wardrobe
• The Aveline Figurehead ship cosmetic depicting a lantern-bearing figurehead for the Jackdaw

The Explorer Outfit functions as a pure cosmetic wardrobe choice in this release. While the original 2013 game restricted this costume to community challenges, the remake allows every sailor to collect it freely. In this updated edition, costume perks are handled independently through equippable rings and charms, allowing you to wear these classic white robes alongside your preferred best trinkets without altering combat attributes.

How Do You Reach and Open the Underwater Chest?

Free-diving is the recovery method required to claim the chest from the seafloor. You can retrieve this treasure immediately after gaining open sailing clearance with the Jackdaw in Sequence 4, well before obtaining the deep-sea diving bell through story progression.

1. Steer the Jackdaw into the Chinchorro region and align your compass coordinates with (28, 293).
2. Locate the prominent rock pillar rising from the sea at the mouth of the northern cove.
3. Bring your ship to a full stop and release the helm near the northeastern side of the rock.
4. Jump into the water and dive straight downward toward the seabed during daylight hours to preserve underwater visibility.
5. Search among the coral formations, rocky ridges, and sea vegetation for rising air bubbles.
6. Swim close to the wooden chest until the interaction button appears, then loot the contents.

Once claimed, the Explorer Outfit remains permanently available among all outfits selectable inside the captain's cabin or at any general store.

Which Travel Strategy Works Best for the Chinchorro Cove?

Approach options are tactical choices depending on ship strength and player preference. The narrow cove entrance contains two high-level Spanish patrol vessels that aggressively engage any vessel entering their perimeter. You can either fight these ships directly or bypass their line of sight entirely.

If your ship possesses advanced jackdaw upgrades, open fire with mortars at long range before ramming the lead patrol vessel. If you arrive early in the campaign with an unupgraded hull, anchor the Jackdaw well outside the cove's detection boundary. Swim across the water surface toward the rock pillar, diving beneath the waves whenever patrol detection meters turn yellow. After opening the chest on the ocean floor, you can immediately use fast travel to return aboard the Jackdaw or step ashore at Corozal.

The official remake details published on the Steam store page highlight extensive visual rebuilds across the ocean floor:

This visual overhaul makes identifying natural seabed contours easier while tracking down every target across all community chest locations. After surfacing with your new robes, equip a set of best swords to complete Edward's classic Assassin look before continuing across the Caribbean.
