Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6 Week 10 Challenges kick off Thursday morning, and two of the most obtuse tasks on the list require players to build and destroy special sandcastles. In this no-nonsense guide, we’ll reveal all the locations you can use to get the task done quickly and easily.

If you want to know where you can build sandcastles in Fortnite, there are two main locations where you can do just that. For obvious reasons, all of these locations will be on some kind of beach where there’s plenty of sand. The first is on this coast southwest of Holly Hedges.

You can’t see the spots here because we’re publishing this guide a little early, but you’ll see three locations to build, clustered around this double chair.

If all those sandcastle spots have been used by other players, you can also try this secondary location on the coast of Dirty Docks.

Once again the spots themselves aren’t visible in this screenshot, but you should see them along this coast once the challenges are officially live. Players might need to reach these locations quickly to receive full credit for the challenge, so try to keep these coastlines in mind as you exit the Battle Bus.

Once you’re done with that challenge, your next step is to destroy three special sandcastles scattered around the Battle Royale island. These spots caused some confusion last week when they arrived in the game a bit ahead of schedule, but now you can actually make use of them.

The first destroy sandcastle location is found on the coastline east of Craggy Cliffs.

Visible in this screenshot, you’ll see a group of sandcastles around these beach chairs. Just approach them and hit the interact button to “destroy sandcastle.”

If this location fails you, there’s an alternate spot southeast of Flush Factory, near the new island that just appeared in the last major update.

Look for some canopies and a clothesline, and you’ll see another grouping of sandcastles that look like this. To reiterate, you may need to get here quickly in case these castles don’t respawn once they’re gone. Still, these are all the sandcastle locations we know so far.
