DAVETHE DIVER GUIDE

Where to Find Snails in the Jungle DLC

Snails are small shallow-water collection targets that blend into plants and rock edges; search deliberately instead of descending.

Updated July 25, 2026 · 5 min read

Quick answer

Search the Upper Lake edges with net mode equipped

Stay in the shallow lake and scan plant clusters, rock faces, and floor edges. Snails are much smaller and slower than fish, so they are easy to pass while moving at full speed.

Equip the Jungle Gun's net mode before the search. If the request asks for three and your route produces fewer, leave the area and repeat the shallow sweep on another cycle.

A reliable snail sweep

1

Begin at the surface edge

Move slowly along the first rock wall and inspect every plant cluster.

2

Trace the floor line

Small silhouettes are easiest to notice against the lakebed rather than open water.

3

Check side pockets

Enter short dead ends and ledges that fast story routes normally skip.

4

Reset after the shallow circuit

Do not descend for a shallow snail; repeat the route after the area refreshes.

How to collect a snail

Aim net mode directly at the snail from short range. A lethal mode can destroy or reduce the quality of a tiny target, while the net secures it cleanly for the request or bestiary.

Why the third snail may be missing

  • One may be hidden behind foreground plants.
  • The current area roll may contain fewer visible targets.
  • A story or weather cycle can alter the shallow route.
  • The request counter may require the catch in your current inventory rather than a past discovery.
