The Queen’s Jewels is a classic and timeless tale of adventure. Small-town surfer Beau, our story’s protagonist is thrust into a hunt for Queen Elizabeth of Spain’s long, lost treasure. When Victoria, a rich and ruthless art and antiquities collector orders her crew after Beau, who holds the key to the missing treasure, Beau finds himself embarking on a journey to the Bahamas.


Upon arriving on Andros Island, Beau is introduced to local divers, Lala and Orion who find themselves alongside Beau in the hunt for the priceless jewels. Piece by piece, Beau and his new friends decipher the 300-year-old puzzle leading to the missing treasure all the while evading the looming and dangerous Victoria and her men.
