Map
I've divided the map here into 6 sections (top, middle, bottom + left and right sides) plus one at the very bottom middle that didn't fit. Apologies for the annoying blur effect on the edges.

Map-based Achievements
Refer to the Maps section above.

Casual archaeologist
Discovered a shrine or a temple
Can be done at any time.
World historian
Discovered all the shrines and temples
Some of the temples will only unlock after progressing with the story. Wait until the end to unlock this one.
What're ya buyin?
Found both biochemists and the weapons trader
They're at Peteh's Airborne Emporio, Northgate, and Biochemist Kytera.
Many tales to tell
Found all 3 seachantresses
They're at Witchrock, Redmouth Forge, and Sacred Steps.
Impenetrable Walls
Found all the fortified locations
Dotted around the map. You may need to capture the locations before you can 'discover' them.
Mortar and Concrete
Found all Imperial locations
Mostly on the western side of the map.
Sea Folk
Found all Civilian Free House locations
Mostly on the top middle area of the map.
Locked away
Found all Mancer locations
Mostly on the bottom middle area of the map.
In another life...
Returned to the scene of the Nodbomb blast
Go back to where the final mission of the Cleftspire chapter took place. It's the circular-explosion-looking feature at the top right of the 'middle right' map in the Maps section.
Racing Achievements
The racecourses are the small torch icons on the map. They're next to Dunkle, Mawbridge, Imperial Peak, Sark's Hollow, and south of Port Remit a bit. There's also one just east of 'The Mancer Benefice' background text on the map, but you apparently don't need that for the achievements.

These can be annoying to complete. Just pick a bird with high Speed and Agility, and make nice smooth movements to avoid losing your momentum.

One bird race
Clocked fastest time on a racecourse
Racing Champ!
Clocked the fastest time on all 5 racecourses
Falcon Collector
Purchased all 5 falcon types from races
You'll need to land at the 5 towns associated with the races (mentioned at the start of this section) after you win the race, and buy the bird they offer. You can switch straight back if you want.
Equipment Achievements
Weird science
Filled all mutagen slots for your Falcon
Any mutagen will do, even the really cheap ones.
Wind in the hair and song in your heart
Bought all chants from the seachantresses
You'll need to do this near the end of the game once you've been to all shrines and temples. Go to Redmouth, Sacred Steps, and finally Witchrock, and buy everything the seachantresses have.
A friend to all
Unlocked all permits in every campaign
You can actually get this at the start of the game in the Dunkle chapter if you visit all the settlements. Just buy the permits at every settlement you visit and you'll get this eventually.
Preparing for a fight
Bought a new type of weapon
Any weapon will do.
Combat Achievements
For the Imperium!
Converted a fortified position for the Imperium
Attack any of the small forts in the Imperium chapters.
Follow the Path!
Converted a fortified position for the Mancer Order
Attack any of the small forts in the Mancer chapter.
The Free life
Converted a fortified position for the Pirates
First, you'll need to become a pirate by attacking civilian ships. Then, you guessed it, attack any of the small forts.
Ace in a Day
Took down 5 air targets in one mission
You should get this one during the story with no issues.
Ace of Aces
Took down 10 air targets in one mission
You should get this one during the story with no issues.
Steel Surgeon
Destroyed 15 turrets in one mission
You'll never get this one naturally in the story. My suggestion is to replay the Mancer story mission 'Caldera Busting'. After busting down the wall, do not fly back home, but instead go between Caldera Prison and Westgate a few times, destroying all the turrets in each. Caldera Prison has 3 and Westgate has 4. Do this back and forth three or four times as the count is wonky sometimes.
Emissary from the Deep
Sunk 3 ships in one mission
You should get this one during the story with no issues.

Roboraser, thanks for the comment, there was also a problem with "Wind in the hair and song in your heart". I sold all the songs on witch island and immediately bought and got the achievement.

Is the DLC required for any achievements?

There are now six races (not just five). I got the achievement after five races :FalconeerHead: , without the stargazer race completed. I guess it is the newest and doesnt count against the achievement counter. But Im not sure.

The "Wind in the hair and song in your heart" achievement is a bit bugged as well. I had to select some items from the seachantresses that I already owned to unlock it.

just as a heads up, the fire pot (red) ammunition seems to interfere with the Ace of Aces achievement; i wasn't able to get it until i switched to a different ammo
