Los Ricos (first island)
1) Last Meal - Kill an emu or a deer and take the fresh meat. Cook it to make steak. Mix the steak with mushrooms to make steak and mushrooms and give that to him.
2) Golden Plant - Inside the safe room on the same island you get the quest on.
3) Monkey Bag - Get an animal skin by killing a deer. Mix it with a reel.
La Vendida (second island / Kovac's island)
4) Find three exotic fruits - They're all over the place, you might even have them on you when you start the quest.
5) Cooked Special White Plant - The white plants are very common, just take one to a fire and cook it.
6) Lemonade - Mix a bottle of water and an exotic fruit together.
La Sanada (third island)
7) Green Beef Soda - Mix a bottle of water and a guarana plant together to make a drink, and then use a compressor on that.
8) Find the golden chalices - Again, they're scattered in that general area. Not terribly hard to find. If anyone remembers the exact locations, I'll edit them in.
9) Fish & Chips - Use the reel, a hardware kit, and the flexible branch (in that order) to make a fishing pole. Go fishing, dawn and dusk are the best times to catch something. Cook the fish. Mix the cooked fish with a cassava root.
Santa Barbara (fourth island)
10) Find the Santa Barbara statue - It's in one of the safe rooms on the same island that you get the quest on.
11) Find the four crab statues - They're all on the west side of the island, not too hard to find. See below for the exact locations.
12) Find the golden cat statue - It's inside a nearby chicken egg game (a tall, thin wooden box with a chicken on it) up a hill to the north.

--Crab Locations (thanks to Nikolai420)--
1. Behind the monkey on a ledge. You gotta burn/cut bushes to get down there.
2. Directly northwest of the monkey. It's on the same platform that the monkey is on.
3. There's a safe house not far from the monkey with a shed that has to be blown up.
4. Just northeast of the monkey is a few piranha. To the north of them is a campfire, wooden structure and gas tank. Behind the tank is a path follow this path to the final crab and an herb!

After exploring the second island, La Vendida, you'll be able to accept quests from the monkeys around the islands. You can check on your map to see if there are any monkeys on the island your on. They'll ask you to bring them an item in exchange for a reward. The rewards for these quests are extremely beneficial, especially the Red Stones you receive from four of the quests. Red Stones can be combined with any weapon to make it Golden, which increases damage by 50%.
