All Cactuar Capers locations in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is overflowing with fun ways to interact with its world, many of which are minigames that task you with completing challenging objectives or winning games. One of the more laid-back of these minigames is Cactuar Capers, which you’ll have to complete when trying to earn some beachwear in Costa Del Sol. This scavenger hunt will send you to take photos of pink Cactuars that have been painted on various objects around the town. In this guide, we’ll tell you how Cactuar Capers works and where to find all of the pink Cactuars so you can get to the beach in style.

All Cactuar Capers locations

There are four pink Cactuars to find in Costa Del Sol during the Cactuar Capers scavenger hunt, and they’re scattered throughout the town in various spots — with some more cleverly hidden than others. You’ll need to find all four of them to complete Cactuar Capers, which can be a bit of a hassle since all you have in your possession to help with that is a map that gives you general locations.

Luckily, the Shinra executive you’re teamed up with will be nearby each of the pink Cactuars commenting on how they must be in that area somewhere. This will help you discern where to look, though our photos further down below will show you precisely where the pink Cactuars are hiding.

Once you’ve found a Cactuar Capers location, you’ll need to adjust where you’re standing a bit and ensure that you can zoom in enough to meet the specifications listed on the map for that specific pink Cactuar. If you’re too far away or too close, you may not be able to get a good shot. Once you’ve zoomed in enough to turn the number green, though, you’re can snap the pic and move on to the next pink Cactuar.

Here’s where each pink Cactuar can be found.

Cactuar Capers location No. 1

Cactaur Capers
Square-Enix

This pink Cactuar requires a zoom of 30%. It can be found in the south section of the town on a fire hydrant surrounded by small children. Getting the zoom right on this one can be a bit finicky, but standing very close seems to help.

Cactuar Capers location No. 2

Cactaur Capers
Square-Enix

This pink Cactuar requires a zoom of 70%. It can be located at the very end of the dock on the eastern side of the town and is pretty hard to miss on the debris there.

Cactuar Capers location No. 3

Cactaur Capers
Square-Enix

This pink Cactuar requires a zoom of 40%. It can be found on the Surf & Suntan sign in the northern section of the town. You’ll have to adjust the camera up to see it above you.

Cactuar Capers location No. 4

Cactaur Capers
Square-Enix

This pink Cactuar requires a zoom of 10%. It can be found on the rock barrier on the western side of the town. You’ll need to look up to see this one, too.

Like the best RPGs, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth gets sidequests right
The mayor of Under Junon in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

Among its many highlights, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth makes simple sidequests a lot more engaging than I had expected. Take an early-game sidequest called When Words Won’t Do. On a surface level, it’s a simple escort mission where players must get a dog from Under Junon to Crow’s Nest unscathed. I did not initially have high hopes for this sidequest due to the poor reputation of escort missions; thankfully, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth defied that fate. To make this optional content more worthwhile, Square Enix gave it a strong narrative backbone.

When Words Won’t Do is actually a story about parents struggling to let go of their kids. Under Junon’s mayor sends players on this quest to help her son and unborn grandchild, and Barrett wonders if he’ll ever be able to let Marlene go during the mission. That’s thematically fitting for an escort mission where you can’t keep something out of your sight.

All Chocobo Gear in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Chocobo Gear

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth gives chocobos perhaps their biggest role in a mainline entry ever, as you'll be using them to traverse every region of the game. Not only do their special abilities help you navigate the world, but various pieces of gear that you can purchase for them can ensure they look good doing it. Even better, this gear aids your chocobo in races so that you stand a better chance at placing in the top spot. Here's all of the Chocobo Gear in the game and how you can round it up.
All Chocobo Gear and how to get it
Most Chocobo Gear can be purchased at tack shops, which are primarily located around chocobo stables. As you progress through the game, new pieces of gear will become available at any tack shop, so you won't need to backtrack to get fresh pieces. Keep in mind, however, that there are some pieces that can only be earned by competing in chocobo races at the Golden Saucer.

To purchase Chocobo Gear, you'll need golden plumes. These are primarily earned from finding and repairing chocobo stations throughout each region, though you'll also get one when catching new chocobos while progressing through the story.
