To loot Spawn Island on Erangel in PUBG MOBILE, drop along the northeast coastline near Kameshki or Severny, secure water transport with extra fuel, and make the crossing immediately. The island offers isolated military-grade loot and possible flare gun spawns, but surviving the run requires strict management of Blue Zone timing and return fuel.
Securing Coastal Transport and Fuel
Spawn Island sits in the far northeast corner of the Erangel map. The open water between the mainland and the island cannot be crossed by swimming without falling victim to the Blue Zone.
When exiting the plane, land directly on the shoreline or adjacent roads near Kameshki, the northeast cliffs, or the beaches east of Severny. Look for watercraft immediately:
- Speedboat (PG-117): Seats a full squad and provides stable ocean handling, but consumes significant fuel on long routes.
- Aquarail: Fast and agile for solo or duo players, though it leaves riders exposed to incoming fire.
- Gas Cans: Pick up at least one or two red gas cans from coastal shacks before setting out. A round trip frequently exhausts a single vehicle tank.
If no boat spawns along your landing sector, abandon the Spawn Island plan immediately. Running down the coastline searching for a craft wastes the window needed to loot the island and return safely.
High-Priority Compounds to Clear
Dock on the southern or western shore of Spawn Island to maintain a clear exit line. Loot swiftly, dividing your squad across different structures to avoid overlapping paths:
- Concrete Bunker Tunnel: Check the floor and tables for high-tier equipment, such as Level 3 helmets, Level 3 vests, sniper rifles, and 5.56mm weapons.
- Main Warehouse and Hangars: Clear the open floor spaces and industrial shelving for surplus medical supplies and weapon attachments.
- Flare Guns: Flare guns frequently spawn on bunker tables, behind shipping crates, or across broken platforms. Keep any flare gun stowed until you reach the mainland. Firing a flare on the island risks dropping crates into deep, unreachable water or leaving you stranded without mainland cover.
Blue Zone Requirements and Departure Timing
Spawn Island falls outside the first safe circle in almost every match. You must prepare for sustained passive damage during the journey back across open water.
Ensure you meet these survival thresholds before leaving the island:
| Supply Metric | Solo Minimum | Squad Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| First Aid Kits | 3–4 kits | 8–10 kits distributed |
| Bandages | 10–15 bandages | 20+ bandages |
| Energy Drinks / Painkillers | 4–6 boosters | 8–12 boosters |
| Gas Cans | 1 full gas can | 2 full gas cans |
| Departure Deadline | Before Phase 1 finishes shrinking | Final minute of Phase 1 countdown |
Refuel your boat completely while still on the island shore so you do not have to stop in open water. Consume painkillers and energy drinks before the Blue Zone touches your location to keep health regeneration active. Phase 1 damage can be mitigated with boosters and occasional bandages, but Phase 2 damage ticks faster and will punish low-health players navigating ocean chop.
Re-Entering Mainland Erangel
Mainland squads frequently hold coastal cliffs to eliminate vulnerable boats returning from the blue.
- Avoid landing on exposed sandbars directly below the Kameshki cliffs, where elevated players hold sightline advantages.
- Steer your watercraft toward natural rock coves situated between Kameshki and Lipovka.
- Cut your engine upon reaching shallow water, take cover behind shoreline rocks, and heal to full capacity before moving inland.
- Check the perimeter road to swap your boat for a land vehicle, such as a Dacia, UAZ, or Buggy, before rotating into the active play zone.

Good guide for PUBG MOBILE players. The strategy part was useful.
Can you add more details about strategy in a future update?
This saved me time in the early game.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
