With Fortnite’s Pirates of the Caribbean crossover well underway, we’re getting all sorts of new quests to complete to earn some pirate-themed rewards. And of course, what pirate-themed event would be complete without something to do with coconuts? Well Epic Games have pulled through with a quest requiring you to hit players with one.

But coconuts aren’t exactly plentiful in Fortnite, so if you’re looking to complete this quest and are stumped as to where to find one, we’re here to help. We’ve put together a list of all the coconut locations in Fortnite and how exactly to hit someone with one.

How to get a coconut in Fortnite

In Fortnite, coconuts (confusingly) don’t grow on trees, and the best way to find them is to open up Forage Boxes. Forage Boxes are those little green shoebox-like boxes that contain different types of fruits and vegetables, and are your best shot at finding a coconut.

Now, we don’t want you to just wander around the map searching randomly for Forage Boxes, so we’ve put a list together of five locations that have the highest number of them, so you can give yourself the best odds of finding some coconuts. These are:

  • Nitrodrome
  • Pleasant Piazza
  • Reckless Railways
  • Sandy Steppes
  • Shipwreck Shallows

You can hold up to 10 coconuts at a time, so even if you find one, it’s still worth searching for a few more as it gives you more chances to hit another player. Speaking of which…

How to hit a player with a coconut

Throwing a coconut is pretty easy, as it’s the same as how you’d throw any other item. Simply equip the coconut from your equipment bar at the bottom, hold right-click if you’re on PC (Square on PS5, X on Xbox) and you’ll start aiming. Now, left-click (R2 on PS5, RT on Xbox) to throw it. If you miss, you can just pick the coconut up again so you won’t lose it no matter how bad your aim is – happy throwing!
