The exact Havana chest coordinates, the guard to watch for, and the reward you pocket alongside this common outfit.

The Brown Cloak is a common outfit in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, tucked away inside a single secret chest in Havana. It is one of the earliest cosmetics you can claim, and reaching it takes only a short detour during your first proper visit to the city.

Quick answer: Travel to Havana and open the chest at coordinates (204, 572), inside a small covered building near the eastern wall. Looting it grants the Brown Cloak outfit.

Brown Cloak chest location in Havana

The chest sits inside a small covered structure close to the east wall of Havana. Set a custom marker on the world map at the coordinates below, then head to that spot on foot. A guard stands right next to the chest, so approach quietly or deal with him before you loot.

How to reach and loot the chest

Open the world map and drop a custom marker on (204, 572) in Havana. This places a waypoint that guides you straight to the covered building holding the chest.

Make your way to the marked spot near the eastern wall. The chest is inside a small covered patio area, the kind of enclosed space that also holds a table, bench, and other props.
Watch for the guard standing right beside the chest. Stay out of sight or take him down first so you can interact without interruption.
Walk up to the chest and use the loot prompt. Opening it adds the Brown Cloak to your inventory and counts toward Havana’s Secrets tally.

Grab it early during the Havana intro

You can reach this chest during your first guided tour of Havana, around the “Mister Walpole, I Presume?” quest. When the objective changes to Follow your hosts, you are free to turn back toward the entrance garden instead of trailing them. Run under the stone archway into the covered patio, and the chest is there waiting.

Grabbing it at this point lets you unlock the outfit long before you would naturally sweep the city for collectibles.

Rewards and how to confirm you got it

Looting the chest gives you the Brown Cloak alongside a small amount of Reales. A notification confirms both drops on the right side of the screen the moment you open it.

To verify the unlock, open the Inventory menu and switch to the Outfits tab. The Brown Cloak appears there with the description “A brown cloak praised by veteran sailors for its resistance.” Highlight it and press the equip prompt to wear it right away.

That is the whole task. One chest, one marker, and a quick pause during the Havana intro puts an early cosmetic and a bit of pocket change in your hands.
