Hello Kitty Island Adventure is a vibrant, exploration-based game that invites players to interact with beloved Sanrio characters, complete tasks, and discover secrets across the island. Among the many exploration features, diving underwater is one of the most sought-after, as it unlocks unique content. To do so, players need to complete specific quests and build relationships with characters.
Building Friendship with Kuromi
Why Kuromi is Important
Kuromi, the charming yet mischievous character, is a key figure in unlocking underwater exploration. Players need to build friendship levels with her to gain access to the quest that provides the Snorkel, allowing them to dive underwater.

Steps to Increase Friendship Level
- Interact Regularly: Talk to Kuromi daily to earn small friendship boosts.
- Gift Items She Likes: Kuromi has a particular fondness for Jack-o-Lanterns and Pumpkins. Offering these items will earn you significant friendship points.
- Complete Tasks Together: Engage in any side quests or activities involving Kuromi to further strengthen your friendship.
By reaching Friendship Level 6 with Kuromi, you’ll unlock the key quest required for diving.
Unlocking the “Deep Diving” Quest
Requirements for the Quest
After reaching Level 6 friendship with Kuromi, she’ll initiate a quest called “Deep Diving.” This questline involves helping Kuromi locate her lost locket. Once you accept the quest, Kuromi will temporarily lend you a Snorkel, which you’ll use to retrieve the locket from an underwater area.
Retrieving Kuromi’s Locket
Kuromi’s locket is located in a pond near her location in the Spooky Swamp. With the temporary Snorkel, you’ll dive underwater to find and retrieve the item. It’s important to note that this Snorkel can only be used within the quest area and must be returned to Kuromi upon completion.
Crafting Your Own Snorkel
Unlocking the Crafting Plan
Once you return the locket to Kuromi, she rewards you with a crafting plan for your own Snorkel. This crafted Snorkel will allow you to dive freely across the island, opening up a variety of underwater areas for further exploration.
Required Materials and Locations
To craft your permanent Snorkel, you’ll need the following materials:
- 10 Rubber: Rubber can be found at Seaside Resort under palm trees or by interacting with specific beach items.
- 2 Sparks: Sparks can be created using Light Stones, which are sometimes provided as gifts from Kuromi. Alternatively, Light Stones can be gathered in specific areas of the island.
- 2 Iron Ingots: Iron ingots are crafted from iron ore, which you can find by mining in locations such as Mount Hothead.

Use a crafting table near Chococat’s station at Seaside Resort to combine these materials and craft your Snorkel.
Exploring Underwater Areas Freely
Accessing New Underwater Locations
With your crafted Snorkel, you’re now equipped to dive into any sufficiently deep body of water on the island. These areas often contain rare items, special fish, and unique treasures that enhance gameplay. Diving allows players to interact with new characters like Hangyodon, adding more depth to the story and gameplay.
Tips for Underwater Exploration
- Look for Shimmering Waters: Many dive locations are marked by shimmering water spots. These areas are often filled with items or secrets.
- Check Your Inventory: Before diving, ensure you have enough space in your inventory, as underwater finds can be plentiful.
- Interact with Characters: Underwater, you may encounter special characters with exclusive tasks or items. Be sure to interact with them whenever possible.
Conclusion
Unlocking the ability to dive in Hello Kitty Island Adventure enriches your gameplay and provides access to new worlds. By building your friendship with Kuromi, completing the “Deep Diving” quest, and crafting a Snorkel, you’ll unlock a whole new aspect of the game. Now that you’re equipped with the knowledge to dive, it’s time to explore the underwater secrets and discover what treasures await!
