The Coast is one of Outbound's most rewarding biomes to explore, packed with hidden locations that reward players who take the time to track them down. There are exactly 4 Points of Interest scattered across this biome, and each one has its own puzzle or challenge to work through before you can claim the rewards. This guide walks you through every location and what to do when you get there.
Points of Interest in Outbound are distinct from standard resource nodes. They typically involve a short interaction sequence or environmental puzzle rather than simple harvesting.
What are the 4 Points of Interest on The Coast?
Based on community documentation, The Coast biome contains these four Points of Interest:
- The Coffee Farm
- The Lighthouse
- The Heartmoor Float Village
- The Stormhold Overpass
Each location is covered below in the order you are most likely to encounter them while driving through the biome.
Outbound Guide: All Points of Interest Locations
The Coffee Farm
The Coffee Farm is the first Point of Interest you will hit on The Coast. It appears early in your exploration route, making it a natural first stop as you get your bearings in the biome.
The farm itself is a derelict agricultural site. Interacting with the key objects on the property triggers the location's completion sequence. Keep an eye out for interactable props rather than just resource nodes, as the solution here depends on engaging with the environment directly rather than harvesting materials.
The Lighthouse
The Lighthouse sits at a coastal vantage point and is the most visually distinctive landmark on The Coast. At roughly the 1:20 mark in community video documentation, it becomes clear this is the most involved of the four locations, with the solution sequence taking noticeably longer than the others.
Navigating to the top of the structure is part of the process. The interaction here involves working through the lighthouse's interior, so do not just drive up and expect a ground-level prompt to complete it. Take your time examining each floor.
The path to The Lighthouse can involve uneven terrain. Make sure your van has adequate fuel before committing to the approach, especially if you are running a lighter vehicle build.
The Heartmoor Float Village
The Heartmoor Float Village is the third Point of Interest, arriving around the 5:14 mark in documented playthroughs. This is a water-adjacent settlement built on floating platforms, which makes the approach and navigation distinct from the other three locations.
Reaching the village requires careful driving near the water's edge. The solution here involves interacting with the village's structures rather than combat or crafting, so come prepared to explore rather than fight.
For players who want to make the most of every biome visit, pairing your exploration run with efficient resource collection is smart planning. The Outbound resources guide covers every material across all four biomes and is worth bookmarking before you head out.
The Stormhold Overpass
The Stormhold Overpass is the fourth and final Point of Interest on The Coast, documented at approximately the 6:47 mark in community guides. As the name suggests, this is a large infrastructure structure spanning a section of the biome.
The solution at the Overpass involves the structure itself rather than the surrounding terrain. Approach from the main road and look for interactive elements on or near the overpass before assuming you need to climb or navigate underneath it.
How do you prepare for Coast exploration?
Before driving into The Coast specifically to clear Points of Interest, a few preparation steps make the run smoother:
- Fuel up fully before leaving your base. The Coast has long stretches between resource nodes.
- Bring repair materials since rough terrain near the Lighthouse and Float Village can wear down your van.
- Clear Signal Towers first if you have not already, as they reveal the map and make locating each POI significantly faster.
- Travel with a companion if possible. Some interaction sequences are easier with two players, and co-op makes the Float Village approach less frustrating.
