Costa del Sol

FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH guide · Chapter 6: Vacation and beach activities

Cloud and the party arrive in Costa del Sol via cargo ship and must change into beachwear before being allowed onto the resort's private beach. Progressing the story requires completing mini-games across the resort town to earn companion cards that are traded for beachwear for both Cloud's and Tifa/Aerith's groups. After relaxing on the beach, Hojo interrupts the vacation with experimental monsters, culminating in a boss battle to secure the area.

Tips

Prioritize mini-games tailored to the specific beachwear styles you prefer for each character, as outfits directly influence dialogue and affinity during the beach segment.
Use Red XIII in the Run Wild minigame by kicking the oversized ball into the matching-colored goal nets to earn the companion card required for beachwear.
Switch between the Cloud/Aerith/Barret and Tifa/Aerith groupings using the designated dressing rooms in town to complete all respective card-earning activities.
During the Pirate's Rampage shooting gallery minigame, aim for golden and moving targets to maximize score thresholds for top-tier rewards.
