V malém městečku Slunečná Zátoka žila trojice přátel – Lily, Alex a Max. Jednoho slunného odpoledne objevili pod starým dubem zažloutlou mapu, která vypadala jako starobylá. "Vypadá to jako mapa k pokladu!" vykřikl Tomáš a děti se rozhodly ji prozkoumat. Prvním cílem byla opuštěná zahrada za muzeem. Když dorazili, našli tam starou truhlu plnou barevného skla, které se třpytilo jako drahokamy. "Jsou to jen staré kousky skla," zklamaně poznamenal Martin, ale Anička podotkla, jaké krásné barvy mají. Tato zkušenost je naučila, že i obyčejné věci mohou mít skrytou krásu. Následně zamířili na vrch nad městem, kde objevili vzácné rostliny a motýly. Děti se rozhodly o motýly pečovat a nosily jim každý den kousky ovoce. Učily se, jak je důležité chránit přírodu a vážit si jejího bohatství. Posledním bodem na mapě byl starý maják u moře. Cesta byla náročná, ale děti se navzájem podporovaly. Když konečně dorazily, našly uvnitř majáku knížku pohádek a starých příběhů města. Tato kniha je inspirovala k výměně svých vlastních příběhů a dobrodružství. Při návratu domů, v záři zapadajícího slunce, si uvědomily, že největším pokladem není sklo ani motýli, ale přátelství, které si vybudovaly. Naučily se, jak je důležité spolupracovat a sdílet zážitky. Kouzelná mapa je zavedla na tajná místa ve městě, ale především jim ukázala poklady jejich srdcí. Jejich příběh se stal legendou v Slunečné Zátokě, příběhem o třech přátelích, kteří našli skutečný poklad – přátelství.
