How to fix the beach bridge

1. Collect wood

To fix the beach bridge, you will need to collect 300 pieces of wood. This may sound like a lot but if you follow our guide on how to farm wood, you will have enough pieces very quickly.

2. Head to the bridge

Once you have 300 pieces of wood, head to the broken beach bridge. The bridge is next to Elliot's house which can be found on the beach south of Pelican Town. If you cannot find the beach, head to Mayor Lewis's house and keep heading south from his front door. This should bring you to a stone bridge that you can walk over and this will take you onto the beach.

3. Equip the wood and fix the bridge

When you have found the bridge you need to equip your wood. Once you are holding it above your head, head to the broken half of the bridge. Press your action button when you are at the edge of the broken half and a text box should appear. Select "Yes" and the bridge will instantly be fixed.
