The Limestone Cave is a subarea within Dave the Diver's Giant Blue Hole that appears at a depth of approximately 100 meters, near the strong water currents. That said, fans will not always find the Limestone Cave in that position, and, at times, it can feel as through the subarea has completely stopped spawning. This guide is here to shine some light on this phenomenon, and it will help players deal with the absence of Dave the Diver's Limestone Cave.
Dave the Diver: Limestone Cave Not Spawning
To begin, it is important to establish that the Limestone Cave appears to have a fairly low chance of spawning unless the player has a VIP request that requires ingredients that are exclusive to the area. As such, indie video game fans should definitely not expect to encounter a Limestone Cave every dive, and they may need to check over the course of several days in order to find one.
That said, if a player has performed many dives without ever seeing a Limestone Cave, the issue may be connected to their position within the main story. Indeed, it is believed that certain main story quests in Dave the Diver will lock the layout of the Giant Blue Hole, and that can prevent the Limestone Cave from having the ability to spawn. Fans that are struggling to locate this subarea are thus advised to complete a yellow quest and check again, as they may find that their problem has been resolved.
To note, players that are primarily interested in using the Limestone Cave as a source for Dave the Diver's Sea Grapes should know that another opportunity to obtain the ingredient does become available later in the game. That opportunity takes the form of Seaweed Farming, and fans can plant Latok Seeds in order to create a nearly unlimited supply of Sea Grapes. It is thus not extremely important that players are able to consistently locate the Limestone Cave, and they may want to spend their time pursuing other tasks.
For those players that are looking for some other high value dishes while they work to establish a more consistent source for Sea Grapes, this list of the best recipes in Dave the Diver may be useful. Indeed, that list details 10 great dishes, and fans that pursue them should have no trouble filling their coffers and purchasing the items and upgrades that they need to continue progressing.
