Cleasing
"Cleanse the Lost Grotto"
| COLLECTIBLE NAME | VIDEO NAME/TIME STAMP | NOTES |
| 1 | 00:00 | From the previous water source, go up the short rooftops with the mini jellyfish. Glide against the wall, run and continue along the wall and to more jellyfish lined rooftops. Head right and drop off your water bubble to open the 2nd switch |
| 2 | 00:24 | Right through the previous door, on the left. |
| 3 | 00:45 | Follow the brick path from the double doors into a building with a red flag right outside it. Drop off your water to open up the 1st switch to the water source. |
| 4 | 01:15 | Through the 4-switch door, you need to bring your water bubble from the left to the middle without touching sand. Once you do, go through the opened area revealing more jellyfish. |
| 5 | 01:52 | Follow the double doors through a linear path |
| 6 | 02:36 | Head up the jellyfish, float up the kelp, and cleanse the last area completing the Lost Grotto. |
| 7 | 03:23 | Head up the jellyfish, float up the kelp, and cleanse the last area, completing the Lost Grotto. |
"Archelon Rider"
Right after the last area is cleansed, the area will be revived with water and fauna. You'll notice, amongst them, a giant turtle circling you. Make use of the kelp and hop on the turtle, revelling in the beauty of the Lost Grotto as well as opening up new areas for you to traverse.
"Bullfrog"
Upon cleansing the Lost Grotto chain and hitching a ride on the Archelon, head back down the dolphin statue's back. Jump down and follow along this thin wall (be careful, it's slippery) to that stone pillar at the end. Behind it is the lonely Bullfrog just waiting to be discovered.
Stele Messages
"Wisdom of the Ancients"

| Not All Wars Have Victors | 00:00 | Left of the double doors with the water switches, headlong at the end of a bridge. |

Secret Shells
"Lost Grotto Secret Shell Collector"
| COLLECTIBLE NAME | TIME STAMP | NOTES |
| 1 | 00:00 | After cleansing the area through the 2-switch door. Head up the rooftops by floating up some kelp, and you'll see a nook with 4 red flags along the Stele "The Lost Grotto". Look down and you'll see a corridor with windows you can jump through and a hidden shell |
| 2 | 00:26 | Through the 2-switch door, there's a big crevice that looks like there's something at the bottom. Take a leap of faith and you'll be rewarded with a shell! |
| 3 | 01:11 | On a building across from the 4 switch door, turn around and look down to see some buildings with open window arches. Head down to the lowest jellyfish you see there and go through the window |
| 4 | 01:23 | Head back using the cleansed chain until you come across a rooftop with a tile on the right side. Jump down, claim the terra from the tile, and look to the right, you'll see a secret nook with the shell. |
| 5 | 01:57 | After cleaning all of Lost Grotto and riding the turtle for the "Archelon Rider" trophy, continue your ride until you reach the top of a big dolphin statue. In front of its fin is the shell. |
| 6 | 02:25 | From the previous shell, go through, and you'll see a neat wall covered with water. Follow it, float up the kelp to reach a rooftop. Look down and you'll see a small area to jump down onto. |
| 7 | 02:49 | Head back up the chain and on the 2nd last chain platform, look to the left, and you'll see some kelp. Follow these trails of kelp until they lead you to the back corner. |
| 8 | 03:29 | Head back up the chain and on the 2nd last chain platform, look to the left and you'll see some kelp. Follow these trails of kelp until they lead you to the back corner. |
| 9 | 03:57 | You can get to this next one by continuing to scale the rooftops, but I fell, so instead: remember that spot early in the zone with the wall glide? Follow that, float up some kelp until you reach the top of the highest roof in the area and you'll see a thin ledge. Carefully tread across and there'll be a thin crack on the wall that leads to the shell. |
| 10 | 04:18 | You can get to this next one by continuing to scale the rooftops, but I fell, so instead, remember that spot early in the zone with the wall glide? Follow that, float up some kelp until you reach the top of the highest roof in the area and you'll see a thin ledge. Carefully tread across and there'll be a thin crack on the wall that leads to the shell. |
| 11 | 04:39 | Head back up again to the chain, this time all the way to that crystallized building. Before going inside, follow the perimeter to the right and perform some jumping maneuvers to avoid the crystals. Keep doing this until you see another thin crack on the wall. |
