If you look at the minimap at the bottom right of the Sand Land screen, strange colored dots will sometimes appear.

Red dots point to enemies, while other dots point to items, but green dots confused me when I first saw them. The dots aren’t very helpful either, as they don’t tell you if they’re above or below you. You may have to wonder for a while where the green dots are pointing.
