Sail across the waters of Arkesia in search of the Adventure Islands to complete quests and earn rewards, like the Island Tokens in Lost Ark.
Lost Ark's Arkesia World Map features several of the game's continents that players can access by travelling across the open and hazardous waters. Between the continents are unique and unexplored islands where riches and threats await those who dare to visit.
Adventure Islands are one of the many endgame activities you can do once you've reached Level 50 and hold an Item Level of 250. Here's how players can find them, what quests they can complete, and the rewards to be unlocked in Lost Ark.
What is an Adventure Island in Lost Ark?
In Lost Ark, players will encounter two main types of islands: static and limited-time islands, for which Adventure Islands is categorised under the latter. These islands are not as accessible as static islands since they only appear at random times throughout the day.
Once the island is about to spawn, you will be alerted to its location, after which a whirlpool will appear. Then, the island will surface, and you will have three minutes to gain entry before it's no longer accessible.
Most Adventure and Timed Islands have an Island Event that players can choose to complete while active. This typically involves a co-op quest, which in most cases tasks you with defeating an Island Boss to earn rewards.
Additionally, players can find other island activities throughout the island, either given by an NPC or triggered automatically once arriving on the island. Nevertheless, the main reason you should be completing Adventure Islands in Lost Ark is to obtain the Island Token, which you can exchange for exclusive rewards.
How to find an Adventure Island in Lost Ark?
Players must access Procyon's Compass to locate an Adventure Island, found beneath the mini-map, displayed as a compass icon. Within Procyon's Compass, select the Adventure Islands tab, where you can check the spawning times and expected rewards for the island you wish to visit.
Additionally, you can use the alarm clock feature at the top left of the screen to view all Adventure Island times. Another thing you can do in Procyon's Compass is set in-game notifications which alert you at least ten minutes before the island spawns.
Doing this will allow you to locate the island's location and check your ship's attributes and resistances before setting sail. Furthermore, you can use Procyon's Compass to view information on other endgame activities, including Field Bosses, Ghost Ships and Chaos Gate.

You can access each of the Adventure Islands daily, depending on which are available on that given day. Lastly, players can find a handful of Mokoko Seeds across the island; however, at times, they can be rather hard to reach or look for.
Adventure Island Rewards in Lost Ark
Depending on the day you opt to clear an Adventure Island, various rewards are available for players to collect. Notably, you can only claim its rewards once during the week and usually twice on weekends;however, players have reported issues regarding claiming rewards on weekends.
The most prized reward and the main reason players should invest in doing Adventure Islands is the Island Token. This item can mainly be obtained once defeating the Island Boss; however, the Island Token is an RNG drop.
If you don't receive this item as a reward the first time, you'll have to wait for the island to respawn to replay the Island Event. However, once you have a few Island Tokens, you can exchange these for exclusive rewards when visiting Opher at The Lonely Island, located southwest of the Arthetine continent.
