When can i find treasures with metal detector again?

[Almo]

I've notice that some areas i can search again and there will be treasure, what is the event that allows me to find new things in the same spot? example i already emptied out some beachs but from time to time i can do this places again, why? i'm just trying to understand what causes this, for example if it is "reseted" every monday, then i don't need to go far from my place to search for keys and stuff

The wiki just says they respawn over time - no more details then that.

Maybe you could experiment and find out?

Personally I used to do it when it rained and clean out the beaches near town. but I rarely go out and metal detect any more.

I hear people use the diving helmet and look in the rivers to find treasures.

I think it's just a chance for individual spots to respawn every day, so over time a beach will fill back up the longer you wait before going back.

And yeah, the diving helmet + rivers trick is really good, at least the first couple times you do it.

For keys specifically I found it to be a lot more convenient to just set up a few bait traps in a river or billibong. 5 bait traps would average me 3-4 keys a day, and took a lot less effort than going with the metal detector to a faraway beach. Only downside is that you then need to farm some kind of meat to fill them up with every day, but killing turkeys once a week is usually enough, mixed with any random meat or grub meat I can loot just walking around.

Thank you i was unaware of the method you said, I'll try it for sure, that helps a whole lot. Keys were the reason for my metal searching
