Visit every sea shanty location in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced to turn your crew into a proper choir. You know what's better than sailing the Caribbean seas to the sound of the wind and the waves? Sailing the seas to the sound of "Spanish Ladies," "Fish in the Sea," and "Drunken Sailor." However, you've got to unlock this 18th-century ear candy, first.
Here's where to find all the shanties in**Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced** and complete the pirates' repertoire.
[Ed. note: This guide is a work in progress. This guide contains 25 shanty locations, but as the game is believed to contain 28 collectible shanties in total, we'll update the list once we've found the final three shanties.]
How to find shanties in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced
While the first 10 shanties are unlocked by default (so your crew has something to sing even if you've only just obtained the Jackdaw), the other shanties are scattered across the map. To see if a location contains any shanties, open the map and hover over the main location icon to see a list of activities, collectibles, and (if applicable), song sheets.

Every shanty location is marked with a musical note icon, while the song sheet itself appears as a white, glowing sheet floating in the air. Beware that the song sheet will fly away as soon as you approach, so part of the challenge is to chase the shanty and grab it before it disappears. If you're too late, the shanty will respawn in its original location.

You'll find seven shanties in the town of Havana (Dry Tortuga) and one more in the small settlement directly west of the city, in Cape Bonavista.

As the Cape Bonavista shanty is particularly difficult to find, be sure you've entered the tunnel as shown in this picture on the left, and climbed the trees in the next open area as shown on the right.

| # | Song | Location |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Whiskey Johnny | Follow the path to the Manor in the east. When you see the gate, look to the right; the shanty is floating on a tree. |
| 2 | Wild Goose | Take the path leading south from the town center. When you reach the wild pigs at the small sheds, turn left, and then right at the first opportunity to spot the shanty. |

| # | Song | Location |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fish in the Sea | Go to Salt Key Bank in the southeast corner of Dry Tortuga. The song sheet floats on a line between two thatch roofs, on the upper row of buildings (south side of town). |
| 2 | The Rio Grande | Go to Cat Island, the small, southernmost isle in Eleuthera, where the shanty awaits in the southeast corner. It's just outside the settlement, on a large tree. Keep to the left to sneak past the soldiers unseen. |
