Stardew Valley update 1.5 just came out, and among many new additions to the game, much new content has been implemented on Ginger Island!
It might be a tad difficult to get to Ginger Island, though. This is because the biggest part of getting to this island is completing quests accordingly so that the game unlocks the island for you.
Willy, the NPC, will be the one who will prompt you to unlock the island. However, he won’t tell you explicitly that he plans to go to Ginger Island. Instead, you will be asked to assist him in a couple of activities, and if you do, you will unlock this interesting island.
How to Get to Ginger Island – Stardew Valley
So, what are the requirements needed to unlock the Ginger Island? There are only two things you need to do to get the ability to go there.
So, before anything, make sure to finish both your Community Center and any quests that you have left with Willy. In the 1.5 update, it is quite different to get to Ginger Island, as we can see.
After you have done both of the above, kindly go a couple of days past the Community Center, and you should receive a mail from Willy.
It will state that he has opened a secret room behind his shop and that you should come by whenever you have time because he will have something to show you. You will see a canal and a roughed-up boat when you enter the secret room.
Agree to fix his boat and provide all the materials needed to finish this task. Next, you don’t need to wait; you can go to bed because the boat will fix it overnight.
The boat will get fixed, and a ticket station will be built here. Then, you can buy a ticket for 1000 gold and go to the infamous Ginger Island!
