Location

The Venus’ Flower Basket is a sea creature in Animal Crossing New Horizons, which means that you’ll need to dive underwater to catch it. Put on your swimsuit and snorkel and head to the water, and then look out for a medium-sized shadow underwater.

Once you see a medium shadow with regular bubbles on the surface, dive down to catch it and with any luck, you’ll have gotten yourself a Venus’ Flower Basket.

Sell Price

The Venus’ Flower Basket is one of the rarer sea creatures you can get in the game, and it sells for quite a bit of money as well. If you take it to Nook’s Cranny, you’ll be able to get 5,000 Bells for it. But as always, don’t forget to donate one to the museum for your collection first.
