The Treasure Map from Misteriosa is one of the buried treasure clues in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced. You pick it up in the Mayan ruins on Misteriosa, but the chest it points to is buried across the map in Kingston. Once you have both the map and the dig site, the reward is the Gilded Hull Design Plan plus a cash payout.
Quick answer: Loot the cadaver at 272,175 in Misteriosa to get the map, then travel to Kingston and dig at 631,152 beside the small boat wreck on the southeast shore.

Find the Treasure Map in Misteriosa (272,175)
The map itself sits inside the Mayan ruins on Misteriosa. You need to hold the map before the Kingston dig site becomes active, so grab it first.

The chest is buried on the outskirts of Kingston, far to the south of where you found the map. You can only dig here once the map is in your codex, so make sure you looted the cadaver first.


Rewards and how to claim the Gilded Hull Design Plan
Opening the Kingston chest gives you two rewards at once.
| Reward | Details |
|---|---|
| Gilded Hull Design Plan | Ship cosmetic, redeemable in the Harbourmaster’s Shop menu |
| Reales | 3,000 |
The Gilded Hull Design Plan is not applied automatically. Open the Harbourmaster’s Shop menu and redeem the plan there to change the Jackdaw’s hull appearance.
Note: Do not confuse this map with the separate Treasure Map from Ambergris Key, which buries its chest inside Misteriosa near the serpent fountain. The Misteriosa map covered here is the one that sends you to Kingston.

How to confirm it worked
When the dig succeeds, you get an on-screen reward pickup for the 3,000 Reales and the Gilded Hull Design Plan, and the map moves into your codex as completed. If the dig prompt never appears at the wreck, you have not looted the cadaver in Misteriosa yet, since the map must be in your inventory before the Kingston site unlocks. This treasure is not missable, so you can return and finish it in free-roam after the story if needed.
