Caves are easily one of my favorite inclusions in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. These are dotted across Hyrule and offer loot and new explorable areas not seen in Breath of the Wild. Many can be accessed by just walking into them, but some must be opened with a puzzle first. This includes Cape Cales Cliffbase Cave, but first, we need to find it.
Where to find Cape Cales Cliffbase Cave in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
Head to the southern region of Necluda to find Cape Cales Cliffbase Cave. Specifically, you'll want to go to the coordinates 3644, -3212, 0000. The cave entrance is located along the base of the cliff and in the sea. You can leap off the cliff and glide down into the mouth of the cave. Inside, you'll be blocked by a set of doors.

How to enter Cape Cales Cliffbase Cave in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
All you have to do is whistle once you are in the mouth of the cave. Of course, you'll need to be standing on a surface and not swimming to do this. If you're blind and miss the wooden platform in front of the door, you can throw an ice fruit into the water to make a frozen platform. Once you are standing, just whistle and enter the case once the doors open.
Once inside, you'll notice one of Misko's Treasure huts, but it is empty. You'll also spot a pirate ship in the center of the cave. Climb aboard and defeat the Stalfos there. There is a chest containing a Lynel Bow atop the forward mast and another chest behind the crates to the back of the ship. This contains the Tingle's TIghts armor piece.
