A new island layout has shaken Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1, introducing striking POIs that change how players fight, explore, and survive. From futuristic cities rising on old ruins to secret bases hidden beneath shifting terrain, these fresh battlegrounds are rewriting every drop strategy.
However, before you drop in, we’ve got a roundup of all the map POIs and new locations for you to explore before you mark your spot. Here are all the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1 locations on the new map.
New Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1 POIs
Chapter 7 Season 1 introduces several fresh Points of Interest that reshape the Fortnite map’s layout and strategy. Players can explore futuristic cityscapes, expanded wilderness zones, and mysterious research facilities filled with new loot opportunities. Each POI offers unique verticality, traversal mechanics, and environmental hazards that encourage different combat styles. These changes make early drops unpredictable and reward those who quickly adapt to the new map dynamics.
The new Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1 island brings a massive new map stacked with 13 new POIs for players to explore. There are three main biomes, Forest, Desert, and Beach, that are spread across these POIs.
Since the Battle Bus is no longer available, players will have to surf onto the island where their drops will be limited. Still, we’re going to break down all the POIs for you and what they offer so you can make your choice the next time you drop.. no wait.. surf on to the island? That’s what we’re calling it now?
Here is a list of all the new POIs in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1:
- Latte Landing
- Wonkeeland
- Tiptop Terrace
- Painted Palms
- Bumpy Bay
- Innoloop Labs
- Sandy Strip
- Fore Fields
- Humble Hills
- Ripped Tides
- Sus Studios
- Battlewood Boulevard
- Classified Canyon
Latte Landing
Latte Landing is one of the northernmost POIs on the new Battle Royale island and is a safe landing spot for those who want to start the match with fewer gunfights and competition near them. You can land near the shore here, and the houses here will give you plenty of loot to fight with.
Wonkeeland
Wonkeeland is one of the most fascinating POIs on the map. You’ll be able to grind the rails of a Rollercoaster or even climb the Ferris Wheel to glide on the island using your wingsuit. It’s an amusement park that’s basically like Travis Scott’s Astroworld, and you’ll find several players landing here for its appeal.
Tiptop Terrace
Tiptop Terrace is a forest located in the northwest part of the map and is full of log cabins and pine trees. If you’d like to land at a spot on the map that is secluded and offers plenty of wood to farm, you can drop here and loot until the storm circle closes in.
Painted Palms
The Painted Palms POI on the Fortnite Chapter 7 island is a gorgeous location full of violet foliage and color, which is said to be the remains of the Dark Presence and now serves as a filming location for Sus Studios on the game’s lore. The location is one of the largest spots on the map and offers plenty of chests for you to open and grab some of the best loot the game has to offer.
Bumpy Bay
Bumpy Bay is a classic pier-themed POI on the new Fortnite island and is located in the far west of the map. You can land here to fish using Fishing Rods, or loot from cozy houses or a parked tram in the middle of the road. You’re also highly likely to find a Reboot Van in this POI, so make sure to land here if you can in most drops to grab some great early loot and drive off with the van.
Innoloop Labs
Innoloop Labs is a central POI on the Fortnite island and houses the Zero Point shard you last saw in the Zero Hour live event. The location also has a new tunnel system that can take you from the labs themselves to a nearby landmark, similar to how Port-a-Pottys worked in past seasons. While the loot here is limited, you can still find mostly rare chests lying around that you can open for better weapons.
Sandy Strip
Sandy Strip POI on the Chapter 7 map is inspired by Las Vegas from real life and is soaked in neon lights and stunning billboards. You’ll find a colorful fountain, a club, a disco, and Fortnite’s own version of The Sphere. The POI is one of the hot spots this season and players will land here for some lucrative loot and vehicles that are parked along the streets.
Fore Fields
Fore Fields is a lush green golf course on the island, which is located far east on the island, right next to Sandy Strip. Players can find ATKs here and ride them across the course, and even play some golf. Look out for loot chests near flags and clubhouse near the golf course since this location has them in abundance.
Humble Hills
Humble Hills is one of the most posh spots on the latest Fortnite island, as it’s inspired by a real-life Hollywood Hills location with massive mansions and palm trees along the streets. You can land here if you’d like to spot some bosses or loot some secret chests stashed away in these mansions.
Ripped Tides
Ripped Tides is basically Fortnite’s own version of a classic Miami food street along the beach. You’ll find plenty of colors over here and several options to claim consumable items from. Furthermore, the location is filled with rooftops you can parkour your way through and loot chests you can find in the shops quite easily. Being one of the southernmost locations, it’s highly likely you’ll land here more often as you surf onto the island.
Sus Studios
Sus Studios is not as sus as it sounds. It’s a cute film studio this season where you’ll find production trucks, props, cranes, cameras, and even a green screen in front of which you can emote with your friends and create your own creations later on. It’s a fun POI to visit if you’d like to encounter all sorts of absurd stories produced by Fortnite characters, while looting plenty of rare chests stashed away in secret rooms.
Battlewood Boulevard
Battlewood Boulevard is the signature location this Fortnite season, where you’ll spot a giant Hollywood-style Battlewood sign, as you encountered in the previous Simpsons season. You’ll also be able to visit a Golden Reel theatre inside, where some of the most fun gunfights could take place.
Classified Canyon
Lastly, Classified Canyon POI is full of secrets on the Fortnite map. From secret doors and vaults to unique chests you can open by solving easter eggs, this is your spot to embark on a mystery hunt to grab some of the most overpowered weapons you can this season. This is the same Area 51 POI that was leaked in the past and has now finally cemented itself as one of the highlight locations on the island.
Best landing spots for high-tier loot in Chapter 7 Season 1
Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1 offers several high-tier loot landing spots that prioritize rare chests, gold weapons, and quick loadouts amid the new Pacific Break island’s biomes.
Top High-Loot Drops
These POIs and landmarks stand out for guaranteed high-tier spawns and density.
-
Classified Canyon Vault: Features a guaranteed gold Lightning Gun, two rare chests, and surrounding regular chests in an Area 51-style desert setup-ideal for solos/duos seeking power spikes.
-
Sandy Strip: Vegas-themed strip with heavy loot across clubs, fountains, and buildings, plus the Bride NPC for instant gold; high-traffic but rewards aggressive squads.
-
Innoloop Labs (underground collider/tunnels): Rare chests, Zero Point shard, Slurp Truck, and mobility tunnels for fast rotations; central position amplifies its value.
-
Battlewood Boulevard: Dense urban zone with theater and cinema chests offering top-tier weapons; busiest hot drop for non-stop action and upgrades.
-
Wonkeeland: Theme park with grind rails, rollercoasters hiding chests, and vertical mobility; chaotic but loot-rich for close-range specialists.
Loot vs. Contest Balance
| Spot | High-Tier Highlights | Contest Level | Best Playstyle |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classified Canyon Vault | Gold gun, 2x rare chests | Medium-High | Risk-reward hunters |
| Innoloop Labs tunnels | Rare chests, Slurp Truck | Medium | Rotational control |
| Sandy Strip | NPC gold, vehicle spawns | Very High | Aggressive squads |
| Battlewood Blvd | Dense chests in buildings | Very High | Hot drop fighters |
Safer High-Loot Alternatives
For less chaos with solid tiers, target edges like Tiptop Terrace (elevated chests and Jump Pad) or Humble Hills (mansion rares and vehicles). These provide full loadouts without lobby pressure, enabling mid-game pushes.
Which POIs have guaranteed vaults or rare spawns
Classified Canyon stands out with its guaranteed vault containing a gold Lightning Gun and two rare chests, surrounded by additional regular spawns in an Area 51-style desert POI.
Confirmed Vaults and Rare Spawns
Collider Tunnels (under Innoloop Labs) features a hidden vault with guaranteed rare chests, plus teleport tunnels for quick access and steady high-tier loot.
High-Rare Density POIs
These locations offer reliable rare chest spawns without full vaults:
-
Sandy Strip: Consistent rare drops near the Bride NPC (gold weapons) and high-density buildings.
-
Tiptop Terrace Dock: Guaranteed Slurp Truck alongside rare chest potential for shields and weapons.
No other Chapter 7 Season 1 POIs show confirmed 100% vaults beyond Classified Canyon and Collider Tunnels based on current guides.
