Explore the Islands

You will encounter many islands when traveling around the map. The game will reward you with crafting material or researched parts after you have explored an area. Points of interest on a map will shine when you get close to them and allow you to explore them. Be careful; some areas on the map are not what they seem and may be traps waiting to damage your boat.

Don’t Use A Light At Night

While using a light will help you navigate the oceans in the dark, at the start of your game, it’s best to avoid using a light. A bright shining light will attract unwanted monsters that will try to kill you. 

If you run into any monster at night, you can always switch off your boat's lights and try to escape them without being detected. Driving a boat at night without any lights is dangerous as you may bump into hidden rocks in the ocean, so try to look out for hidden boulders.

Use the Lighthouse

It’s easy to get lost at sea and lose your navigation. Thankfully the lighthouse is always visible in the game. Follow the light from the lighthouse to safely return to the docks.

Wake Up Before Dawn

Waking up before your boat's resting period has fully completed will give you an extra few hours. Heading out to sea generally takes a few hours on your boat. The extra time will allow you to start fishing or gathering resources in the safety of dawn.

Use Unwanted Crab Pots as Waypoints

Crab pots only have a life period of two days before they will expire and need to be repaired. Use any unwanted crab pots to mark off important areas or points of interest on the map. The unwanted crab traps will appear on your map, making it easier for you to locate areas.
