Tortuga island chart

Three local results; one separate Matanzas voyage

The beach map, warehouse painting and Mayan Stone are three different Tortuga proofs. Use the active marker or inventory gap to choose a lane; only the map sends you away for Mortar Storage.

  1. 01

    Eastern beach · map clue

    Do next

    Find the rowboat and skeleton near 851, 352. Take Treasure Map from Tortuga, open its sketch, and leave the waterfall dig for Matanzas near 312, 617.

    Follow the separate dig
    Result to check

    The Tortuga map appears in inventory. Mortar Storage Ultimate Plan is not yet earned just because the clue was picked up.

    If this does not match your save

    If the skeleton gives nothing, check map ownership first. If the later dig is missing, compare the owned sketch with the Matanzas waterfall left of its Mayan Stela; do not search Tortuga for that chest.

  2. 02

    Western plantation · warehouse

    Do next

    At the western compound, check the banana crate used for the warehouse key, then read the current guard line before opening the building.

    Plan a guarded entry
    Result to check

    Map of the World is recorded in the painting collection. A money chest or the beach treasure map is not this warehouse reward.

    If this does not match your save

    If the door stays locked, return to the western key spot and confirm the active warehouse marker; do not search a Dry Tortuga fort for this plantation key.

  3. 03

    Western island · Mayan Stela

    Do next

    Find the separate western pillar marker, align the visible white-line pattern with the ground reference, then collect the revealed stone.

    Check the stone chain
    Result to check

    The Mayan Stone pickup and local stela state change in the current save; a nearby warehouse opening proves nothing about the puzzle.

    If this does not match your save

    If the stela marker remains, revisit its own pillar and pickup. Keep the warehouse and Matanzas waterfall off this puzzle's completion check.

  4. 04

    Other local markers · leave check

    Do next

    Use the synced viewpoint and current island counters for the two money chests, the house-side Crónicas dos Feitos de Guiné manuscript and the north-palm What the Voices Saide letter; keep hunting as its own marker family.

    Filter remaining markers
    Result to check

    Each named Secret is present by name and any remaining chest, viewpoint or animal marker is visible as its own local task.

    If this does not match your save

    If one counter is open, filter to that collectible family and return only to its live marker. Do not count the Matanzas dig or a Dry Tortuga visit toward Tortuga's island cleanup.

Before you leaveLeave with three local boxes checked separately—map, painting, stone—and a Matanzas note only if the mortar chest is still unclaimed. Tortuga and Dry Tortuga are different places.

Route Plan

East-beach clue → west-side checks → Matanzas handoff

Tortuga's eastern-beach rowboat skeleton holds a map near 851, 352; its buried Mortar Storage Ultimate Plan is on Matanzas near 312, 617, not on Tortuga. The western warehouse has a different key-and-painting task, and the western Mayan Stela has its own stone result. Choose the missing lane before crossing the island or sailing away.

  1. Use 848, 350 only to locate Tortuga. Check the current map for the eastern beach, western warehouse and western stela; each pickup has its own marker.
  2. For ship storage, collect the map by the eastern-beach rowboat skeleton near 851, 352; record Matanzas as a separate dig only after the clue appears in inventory.
  3. For the warehouse, find the key at the western plantation's banana crate, open the warehouse and verify Map of the World by name; solve and collect the western Mayan Stone on its own marker.

The shore-to-water boundary

The shore-to-water boundary

A Tortuga clue can be complete while the Jackdaw upgrade route remains open. The plan is not a local island collectible.

  • Before sailing, verify the beach map in treasure inventory; map ownership is the prerequisite for the Matanzas waterfall check.
  • At Matanzas, inspect the separate buried chest and read Mortar Storage Ultimate Plan by name before checking the harbourmaster menu.
  • If the ship still has a mortar problem after the plan, compare ammunition capacity with mortar damage and the current upgrade prerequisites.

West-side proof is split

West-side proof is split

The banana-crate key opens a painting route, while the nearby western pillar advances the 16-stone chain. Their icons and results do not merge.

  • Check the warehouse key and Map of the World painting before calling that compound done.
  • Check the Mayan Stone after the stela's alignment and reveal interaction; an opened warehouse does not increment the stone chain.
  • Keep the north-palm letter and house-side manuscript as named Secret checks, not as substitutes for either west-side result.

Common Questions

Does Tortuga's rowboat map give Mortar Storage on the island?

No. Take the map from the eastern-beach skeleton near 851, 352, then use its sketch for the separate Matanzas waterfall dig near 312, 617. The named Mortar Storage Ultimate Plan belongs to the opened Matanzas chest, not the Tortuga map pickup.

Where is the Tortuga warehouse key for Map of the World?

Check the banana crate on the western plantation, near the guarded warehouse route. Confirm the key and current guard line before entry, then verify Map of the World in the painting collection; a beach map or money chest cannot replace it.

Is the Tortuga Mayan Stela the same as the warehouse reward?

No. The western stela has a pillar alignment and Mayan Stone pickup. Keep its marker and stone count separate from the nearby warehouse key and painting, and confirm both results in the current save.
