11Starsand Port22Starsand Port is the island's main dock and pier facility, located within Half-Moon Bay on the southern coast of Starsand Island. It is the hub for all water-based travel: yacht and speedboat rentals, the Parrot Ship ferry to deep-sea fishing zones, and the weekly Merchant Ship. The port must be rebuilt early in the game through the Port Reconstruction quest given by Marston, the dock manager. Once operational, it opens up ocean exploration, profitable Merchant Ship trading, and access to three exclusive fishing zones that are unreachable by any other means.44Location66Starsand Port sits on the beach at Half-Moon Bay, the island's southeastern coastal area. It is distinct from the AquaBlue Outpost (Delphin's fishing shop on the right side of the docks) and from G-Power Bike (Neona's vehicle shop on the main road nearby). Two bus stops serve the broader Half-Moon Bay area: the Half-Moon Bay stop and the AquaBlue Outpost stop, both part of the 10-station fast travel network.88The pier extends from the beach with the Parrot Ship on one side and rental boats on the other. Marston's house is on the beach at the corner area of Half-Moon Bay, and a boardwalk runs alongside the shore where NPCs like Aurelis wander during their daily routines.1110Port Reconstruction Quest1312When you first arrive on the island, Starsand Port is in disrepair. Marston gives you the Port Reconstruction quest to rebuild it.1514DetailValueQuest giverMarstonMaterials required15 Stone + 15 SoftwoodCompletionPort opens the next in-game day after turning in materials1716Once the port is rebuilt, you gain access to yacht rentals, the Parrot Ship ferry, and the Merchant Ship dock. This quest feeds into the broader Island Life progression chain:1817Port Reconstruction (rebuild the docks with Marston)Building the Maritime Bureau (unlocks Island Pro rank and the Merchant Ship)Building Starsand Station (unlocks the bus fast travel network)2019Facilities and Services2221Merchant Ship2423The Merchant Ship docks at the port every Monday with a rotating stock of rare items. Its key feature is that it buys your goods at 200% of their normal value, making it the most profitable place to sell crops, cooked dishes, and crafted goods. The ship operates from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM and its inventory refreshes each week.2625For players focused on making money, the Merchant Ship is one of the best income sources in the game. Stockpile your highest-value items throughout the week and sell them in bulk on Monday.2827Yacht Rental3029You can rent a yacht at the port for 150 Coins per hour of in-game time. The yacht gives you direct player-controlled navigation across the open ocean, letting you explore coastal areas, reach remote fishing spots, and enjoy scenic rides along the island's shores.3231Speedboat Rental3534A speedboat is available for rent at the end of the pier. After your first rental, you can re-summon the speedboat anywhere via the Travel app on your phone, making it a convenient way to get on the water quickly. You must end your active rental before summoning a new vehicle.3736Parrot Ship Ferry3938The Parrot Ship provides ferry service to three exclusive deep-sea fishing zones that cannot be reached by swimming, personal boats, or any other method.
