===How to access Syrenthia===
By default, areas related to Syrenthia are not visible on the map.
To get them to show up, you need to find and have equipped three pieces of diving gear.

The [[Diving Gear Set]] is hidden throughout Jarvonia. The three pieces and their locations are:
* Rusty Diving Helmet
** From [[Frosthook Emporium]] shop in [[Port Skildar]]
** Cost 500 gold
* Rusty Diving Torso
** From [[Adventurers' Guild Outpost]] in [[Horn of Respite]]
** Cost 20 Adventurers' guild tokens
* Rusty Diving Leggings
** Common drop from [[Sunken Chests]]. You should get one from 1 or 2 chests

With your Rusty diving gear equipped, you can see Syrenthia, and access it from two locations: [[Port Skildar]], or [[Granfiddich Shores]].

=== Diving Gear ===

All Underwater areas require you to wear three pieces of diving gear. Some areas require you to wear higher levels of diving gear.
As the [[Diving_Gear#tabber-tabpanel-Diving_Gear_Set-0|Rusty Diving Gear]] gives a lot of negative work efficiency, your first priority will be to get better diving gear. Preferably, you want to get to Hydrilium Diving Gear as fast as possible. 

To Craft Hydrilium Diving Gear, you need the following skill levels:
* Agility - 50
* Crafting & Mining - 45
* Cooking, Foraging & Woodcutting - 35

Before you can craft [[Diving_Gear#tabber-tabpanel-Expert_Diving_Gear_Set-0|Hydrilium Diving Gear]], you need to craft [[Diving_Gear#tabber-tabpanel-Advanced_Diving_Gear_Set-0|Kelp Diving Gear]], simply so you can access [[Underwater Cave]].
To get started, you need to do [[Kelp Foraging]] in the [[Kelp Forest]]. It is easiest to access through [[Granfiddich Shores]], but if you don't have the [[Jarvonian Letter of Passage]], you can walk through Syrenthia to get there. Without crafting bonuses, each piece of Kelp and Hydrilium Diving Gear requires 4 kelp, so gather at least 24 pieces.

Head to Vastalume Cook some [[Hardened Kelp]] and craft one piece of each Kelp Diving Gear. Next, you can head to [[Underwater Cave]], where you'll need to mine at least 12 [[Volcanic Rock]]. Then, you can head back to Vastalume, make some [[Hydrilium]], and craft one of each Hydrilium Diving Gear piece. You can't equip them yet, but take them with you and head to [[Elara's Lagoon]]. You will need to complete [[Swimming (Expert)]] 25 times, after which you can equip your new gear. You can stay at the activity for a total of 50 completions for the [[Human Fish]] achievement, or try to farm for [[Flippers]].

I highly suggest crafting higher quality diving gear after this, as it is one of the most important pieces for underwater activities. After that you can also work on grinding for [[Oxygen Tank]] or [[Tentacle Crown]]. While Oxygen Tank, does not have any attributes, it frees up one of your head/chest/legs slots, which can have way better stats than anything in the back slot.
