The Last Caretaker Underwater Caves: Coordinates and How to Find Them
Update 5.5 review, including dated older coordinate reports and footage.
Quick answers
Eight cave entries are listed below: seven with B-grade coordinates and one hidden cave reported by a single source. The coordinate grade does not verify a cave’s depth or entrance.
These are approximate in-game map-grid coordinates, not metre values. One grid unit is about 100 m. X increases eastward; Y decreases northward. The fan database uses metres, so its values need dividing by 100 for comparison.

Cave coordinates
Depth readings are disputed. Both sources are shown as recorded: Triss reports positive dive depths, while the fan database lists negative heights. They may refer to different points, but the reason is unconfirmed. Neither set is selected as the default; treat them as C-level reports.

Coordinate and depth evidence
North Lantern is listed at 55, -82 by Triss, consistent with the fan database’s Y value of -8,162 m. The terminal transcription instead has 55/82. We retain the negative Y supported by the other two sources; the reason for the transcription difference is unconfirmed.

The South Echo table position is about 74, 38. StormkilGaming’s map cursor shows 73 : 37 in the South Echo chapter at 2:09. That is a nearby cursor position, not confirmation of the exact entrance.

The table uses Far Horizon. Triss’s post originally called it Distant Horizon; a reply corrected the name, which also matches the terminal transcription.
