All Cactuar Capers locations in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

Cactaur Caper
Square-Enix

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

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.

Why I kept coming back to Final Fantasy XIV in 2024

The MMO genre is overflowing with titles vying for the attention of anyone willing to invest significant portions of their time in a single game. There are no doubt plenty of killer choices you can make based on what type of combat, endgame, and payment model you prefer, ensuring that you'll almost certainly find one that fits you just right. I've been investing off and on in the genre for over two decades, with thousands of hours poured into everything from old, niche titles like Silkroad Online (which I just learned somehow still exists) to worldwide successes like World of Warcraft and Guild Wars.

In recent years, though, I find myself disappointed in various aspects of many popular MMOs, whether it's an overwhelming focus on endgame raiding, too much PVP-centric content, or unfriendly communities that make me cringe when I even glance at the chat. None of that is a problem when I return to Final Fantasy XIV. I somehow feel at peace each time I load up Square Enix's long-running MMO, and it's becoming harder and harder for me to want to venture elsewhere.

I ended up on Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s lamest date. It was perfect for me
Cloud and Aerith on a date.

It was the big moment.

After dozens of hours traveling with my companions, I had made it to Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s “date” sequence. It would be a moment of quiet before what I expected to be a heavy conclusion, one where I’d get to see which of my party members I’d formed the strongest bond with and take them out for a night at the Gold Saucer. I couldn’t wait to see who was waiting for me behind Cloud’s hotel room door. Would it be Aerith? Did I do enough to woo Tifa? I swung the door open and didn’t see anyone at my eye level. My eyes panned down to the floor.

We made our own 2024 Game Awards expansion pack with 5 new categories
Hades 2 key art from its first trailer.

In the lead-up to last year's Game Awards, we noted that the ceremony could use some new categories. We felt that the current list was starting to feel lacking, especially as a shifting game industry has moved more toward remakes, early access launches, and more. We secretly hoped that someone running the show would take those suggestions to heart and adopt them. That didn't happen with this year's nominations, leading to all sorts of discourse about whether a DLC should be considered for Game of the Year and when is the right time to include it.

So we've taken matters into our own hands: welcome to Digital Trends' 2024 Game Awards Expansion Pack!
