Forza Horizon 5 Statues Beneath Blue Water is an El Camino Accolade you can unlock by discovering and photographing the Statues near Cascadas de Agua Azul. It is very similar to all the El Camino Accolades we have covered so far, except you have to photograph three statues instead of one.
Furthermore, the FH5 Statues Beneath Blue Water are a bit trickier to spot. Regardless, throughout the guide below, I’ll tell you everything you need to know about the 3 Forza Horizon 5 Statues near Cascadas de Agua Azul.
FH5 Statues Beneath Blue Water Photograph Location
As you probably know by now, to unlock the Statues Beneath Blue Water FH5 Accolade, you have to play or replay (if you have already finished it) a specific El Camino Story. This Story is named Cascadas, and it is the 6th Story in the El Camino Chapter of the video game developed by Playground Games.
So, the first thing you have to do is to start the said Story. If you have already finished it, you have to replay it because the Statues you need to photograph spawn only during this Story. This means that you won’t find them in free roam. In case you don’t know how to replay an FH5 Story, check out this guide.
How To Discover and Photograph the Statues Near Cascadas de Agua Azul
Excellent, so when the Story starts, your objective is to drive from the starting point (north of Gran Puente) to the destination point, marked on my map above. This area is known as Cascadas De Agua Azul. One thing worth outlining is that you may not be able to photograph the statues and get the 3 Stars simultaneously.
If that’s the case, you have to play the Cascadas Story twice because the 3 Stars and the Statues Beneath Blue Water Accolade are not connected. Or, simply put, you can unlock the Statues Beneath Blue Water even if you get one Star.
Good, now, when you reach the area marked on the map by a blue circle, you’ll most likely see a fantastic waterfall, which is impossible to miss due to its size. The Forza Horizon 5 Statues near Cascadas De Agua Azul are not near but behind the waterfall.
So, drive your buggy behind the water curtain. You can reach the area from the hill on the right side while facing the waterfall. Now, you should be able to spot the three statues in my screenshot.
Once you get close to the Statues, pull out your camera by pressing Up on your DPad, and take a photo (press A). Now, the Cascadas El Camino Story and the FH5 Statues Beneath Blue Water Accolade should unlock.
Accolade seems to be bugged. Tried 2 times and it doesn’t count.
Same problem with me
I had a similar issue at first, I backed up where I was just touching the waterfall/couldn’t really see the statue but was close enough for the camera to hit it when I moved it forward. Then I made sure to capture all three in a bit of a wider shot, and it worked.
Tried it 4 times still hasn’t worked.
The Location for statues are not there where the arrow is marked on the first picture. Head to the waypoint centee circle and there’s a waterfall in front of it that’s the one you need not the one marked where the arrow above shows
This is bugged. Tried many times, no matter what I do, wont get the photo
some lines of dialog gets skipped if you drive straight there. Follow line, wait about 3 min for them to finish the talk then take picture of car + statue. Worked for me 1 try after 3 fails with driving straight there.
Wow, this is an interesting tip. I wonder if anyone else can confirm this.
Worked exactly as you have described Tete
Thank you for confirming this, Ian!
yeah i only see the statues if i am doinng the mission but if i am free roaming i dont see them
Worked exactly this way. I had tried it NUMEROUS times before. I did it like this, and the accolade was completed.
Tete was right
Awesome! Thanks for confirming and congrats on the Accolade! 🙂
I can confirm that there are NO statues behind the water in freeroam. So I don’t understand why is the game having this thing to be completed if there’s no statues? Smh…
The statues appear in that 6th mission, I did it again and took the pic again, yet it keeps saying “Discover and photograph the Statues…” in freeroam, without the ability to photograph the non-existent statues. Broken game.
Thanx for the tips. I already had 3 stars for the cascadas mission, so I just drove straight to that waterfall, and boom, there’s the 3 amigos. I knew it had to work something like that. So almost every el Camino mission has to be beaten once, then replayed to find the statues. Thanx again.
