This guide explains how to walk the plank in Fortnite.
Fortnite's Pirates of the Caribbean collaboration event is underway, and with it comes many Quests—one such Quest tasks players with walking the plank, an appropriate challenge given the circumstances. Completing this Quest and others will earn you experience points (XP) and bring you closer to unlocking items in the Cursed Sails Pass. This article explains how to walk the plank in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3.
How to Walk the Plank in Fortnite
Your first step in this Quest is to mark the new Shipwrecked Shallows point of interest (POI) on your map. You can find this spot in the middle of Fortnite's Island. Once there, you will see a massive pirate ship positioned in the center of the location. The top deck of this vessel contains a plank, which you can walk across as if you're in Pirates of the Caribbean.
To complete the Fortnite challenge, walk across the plank, and you will receive the "Quest complete" notification. Although it sounds easy, most of the lobby probably has the same idea, so we will highlight some strategies in the next section.
Here is a quick recap of those steps:
- Load into a Fortnite match.
- Head to the new Shipwrecked Shallows POI.
- Land on the pirate ship.
- Head to the plank and walk across.
- Challenge complete.

Tips and strategies to complete this Quest
The best advice we can provide is to complete this challenge in Team Rumble. This game mode allows you to respawn, giving you several chances to try. As usual, you can expect other players to destroy the ship or attempt to stop you, but eventually, your opportunity will come.
It only took one attempt for us to walk the plank in Fortnite. Although there were quite a few players, you can just run across the plank to complete the Quest.
