After saving the world, Charlie is ready to take it easy in the Galapagos Islands. The local press also reported that the filming crew stayed at Samana as well.In this sequel to the New York Times bestselling Charlie Thorne and the Last Equation–which #1 New York Times bestselling author Chris Grabenstein called “a real page-burner”–Charlie searches for Charles Darwin’s hidden treasure in South America. The caves themselves have been iconically used as a backdrop for a fan-favorite film, Jurassic Park. Inside the caves were various wall paintings and engravings created by the native Taino people, frequently depicting sharks, gods, and whales. The underwater grottos in these caves made the perfect spot for shooting Loretta and Alan wading through water as they near Kalaman's tomb. Samana was also the third location for the underground network of caves in the film, specifically the caves that lined the northeast of the beaches. It is one of the beaches along the north-coast region of the island that has remained untouched by the growing resort industry, making it a dazzling view.

This imagery was tied together by the peaceful scenery, white sands, and blue waters of the beach of Samana in Las Terrenas. The Lost City concludes with the fanciful image of Alan riding along the beach on his white horse, clad in a white ruffled shirt with his blonde hair streaming out behind him. He’s not really into archeology he’s all about the pomp and circumstance.' And it gives the audience a sense of who Fairfax is. According to Conde Nast Traveler, Radcliffe also explained onsite that, 'Whenever you walk onto sets like the excavation site and Fairfax’s compound, and you see the amount of work that’s gone into it, it amazes. The excavation site was dug up to a momentous degree, adorned with an array of tents and workshop tables to indicate Abigail Fairfax's ( Daniel Radcliffe) little to no regard for archeology itself and his preoccupation with the appearance of grandeur. The site itself was filmed at a coconut plantation, called West Grove, in the same area. A lot of the forest scenes were shot in this area, including Loretta ( Sandra Bullock) and Alan's ( Channing Tatum) escape from the archeological site they were being held hostage and the unforgettable motorcycle attack. However, the jungle behind it, teeming with vivid greenery, is what caught the production team's attention. The Portillo region is known for its sunny beaches and coastline.
