GameBanshee’s general Oblivion walkthrough places the entrance at Smuggler’s Cave near Anvil. Enter the cave and continue through it to reach Dunbarrow Cove. This route comes from a general-game walkthrough rather than a Remastered-specific route guide.

How to claim the cove

Inside, defeat the Red Sabre Skeletons, including their captain, Cap’n Dugal, according to the GameBanshee walkthrough. Once the area is cleared, the walkthrough directs you to Dahlia Rackham aboard the Sea Tub Clarabella to purchase services and improvements for the cove.
