Where to find all 20 Phantasmal Conches on the Golden Apple Archipelago
How do I collect all the Phantasmal Conches in Genshin Impact’s Summertime Odyssey event?The Golden Apple Archipelago has once again opened up for the summer, meaningGenshin Impactplayers get to take their characters to the beach for a little well-deserved r&r for the second year running. Spoiler alert, though: there’s still questing to be done even in this most relaxing area of Teyvat. But taking part in the event comes with rewards aplenty, including this year’s big prize: an alternative outfit forFischl.
In order to nab some fancy new duds for the one and only Prinzessin der Verurteilung, you simply need to locate 16PhantasmalConches from around the Golden Apple Archipelago and piece together the tale they tell. This year they come in two varieties — Echoing Conches and Imaging Conches — but both count towards your Phantasmal Conch collection goal. There are 20 in total and you get some extra goodies for every four you collect. So without further ado, let’s move on to the Phantasmal Conch locations in Genshin Impact!

Genshin Impact Phantasmal Conch locations
To aid in your search, Phantasmal Conches will pop up on your mini map when you get close to them, similar to how Oculi do in the main game. However, the annotation goes away again if you move out of range and furthermore doesn’t carry over to your main map. They also don’t really give you an exact location so much as highlighting the area of the map where you need to hunt around.
In particular, be aware that some Phantasmal Conches are high up on cliffs that can be hard to access from ground level, thanks to the terrain being particularly uneven and the likelihood that your character’s stamina will run out during the climb. In order to reach these, sometimes the easiest thing to do is to complete a Surfpiercer Challenge (another of the Summertime Odyssey event challenges) in the area of the island in question and use the gliding boost you get when exiting the Waverider to launch your character to the top of the cliffs.
In order to collect a Phantasmal Conch, you simply need to interact with it. You’ll then receive a brief snippet of story: audio for Echoing Conches, or visual for Imaging Conches. Note that you don’t actually pick up Conches when you interact with them, allowing you to replay their snippet as many times as you like (you can also review them in the Event menu). However, once interacted with and added to your collection, a Conch’s location will no longer ping on your minimap.
There are five Phantasmal Conches on Broken Isle:
There are three Phantasmal Conches on Minacious Isle:
There are three Phantasmal Conches on Pudding Isle:
There are three Phantasmal Conches on Twinning Isle:
If you’ve been keeping count, you’ll have noticed that only 14 of a total 20 Phantasmal Conches have been accounted for here. The remainder are being added one or two at a time over the first few days of the Summertime Odyssey event, and require you to have advanced through the event’s main questline in order to enter the new Phantom Realm Character Domains.
The remaining Phantasmal Conches can be found in the following locations:
Don’t worry if you missed a Phantasmal Conch in one of the character domains: you can replay them by interacting with the event item belonging to the character whose domain you wish to revisit. Indeed, the Mona’s Conch can only be obtained in a subsequent visit after beating the domain once.
You can claim a set of rewards for every four Phantasmal Conches you collect. To claim them, simply go into the relevant section of the event menu. The rewards are as follows:
