📋 About This Mod
This is the official port of Underwater Treasure from Original Skyrim to SSE. All credits go to Jokerine for the design and implementation. Many thanks for allowing open permission to port this to SSE. The original mod can be found here:
Underwater Treasure
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 2 versions of the .esp:
The Sea of Ghosts adds treasure chests to just that area.
The SOG- Rivers and Lakes .esp adds 36 other treasure chests to find in the Lakes and Rivers all over Skyrim.
There are also 2 new ESL files that clewecks made regarding the SOG-Rivers and Lakes .esp. Please look in the comment section to read exactly what clewecks did to these files and his description of the changes he made. Many thanks for those files and all credits go to clewecks.
This mod is safe to install mid-game. It only adds chests to the world. A new game is not necessary.
Both of the .esp's have been saved in the Creation Kit in form 44. No cleaning was necessary as Jokerine cleaned the originals with TES5Edit. I ran the azzendix water fix script and it cleaned 35 records. No water seams should be in the area at all. This mod is very lore-friendly and that's why I felt I should port it over. If you really like this, I also ported over Hidden Treasures by Ironman5000 and it makes a great companion to this mod as well. You can find that one here:
Hidden Treasures SSE

If you are looking for a fantastic Environmental mod that makes a great partner to this one, I would highly recommend Depths of Skyrim - An Underwater Overhaul SSE by TheBlackpixel and it is compatible with this mod. Its truly amazing and it changes the underwater scenery for the better and it adds a lot of new things including Shipwrecks and fish. You can get it here:
Depths of Skyrim
Here is the description by Jokerine on the Oldrim page:
Underwater Treasure SSE ports Jokerine's classic Skyrim mod to Special Edition, adding hidden treasure chests beneath the waters of Skyrim, from the Sea of Ghosts to inland rivers and lakes. For explorers who enjoy underwater scavenging and want more reasons to dive.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 2,762 endorsements and over half a million downloads.
- Adds a fresh exploration layer for players who've already combed the land.
- Simple concept, no new mechanics—just hidden loot for divers.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2022—may not be compatible with the latest Skyrim SE patches.
- No detailed changelog or feature list beyond the basic description.
- Treasure placement is static, so once you find them, they're gone for good.
For Skyrim explorers who've exhausted land-based dungeons and want a new scavenger hunt. Perfect for players who enjoy underwater environments and want a reason to use Waterbreathing. Skip if you prefer combat or quest mods—this is purely about finding loot.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install—it's a simple drag-and-drop.
- Bring a Waterbreathing spell or enchanted gear before diving, or you'll drown.
- Check the mod's comments section for any known conflicts with other water or map mods.
