Seabed Road Location in Forza Horizon 6 – How to Find It and Earn Discover Japan Points

TL;DR

• Seabed Road is in the southern Ito region, just west of the bridge leading to Legend Island in Forza Horizon 6.
• Look for a crashed boat on the beach near a seaweed farm – the road leads straight into the water from there.
• Fast travel to the Sekibe Kaijo Trailblazer or Forest Straight Speed Zone and drive toward the coast.
• Simply drive to the end of the underwater path to earn 25 Discover Japan Points.
• There is also a 3,000 XP Bonus Board nearby – don’t miss it.
• You can complete the Under the Sea skill here at the same time by smashing the seaweed farm poles.

The Seabed Road in Forza Horizon 6 is one of those locations most players drive straight past without ever realizing it exists. It looks like a dead end on the coast, and most people assume you cannot drive into the water. But this one is different. There is a real road here, and driving it earns you 25 Discover Japan Points toward your Wristband progression. This guide shows you exactly where to find it and what to do once you get there.

What Is Seabed Road in Forza Horizon 6?

Seabed Road is a Discovery location in Forza Horizon 6. There are 75 landmarks in Forza Horizon 6 spread across every region of Japan. Visiting them registers in the Discovery section of your Collection Journal and hands you Discover Japan Points, pushing your Stamp progression forward.

Seabed Road is one of the more unusual ones. It is tucked away in the quiet corners of the map, waiting for the observant driver to stumble upon it. Unlike most landmarks which you discover just by driving past them, Seabed Road requires you to literally drive into the ocean to find it.

The Seabed Road is located within the seaweed farm area required for the ‘Under the Sea’ challenge. By smashing through the seaweed while driving the road, you can tick off both the discovery and the challenge in a single pass.

If you are working toward 100% completion, you will need every Discover Japan Point you can get. Check out our Discover Japan stamps guide and our Wristband progression system guide to understand how it all connects.

Where Is Seabed Road in Forza Horizon 6?

Seabed Road is situated in the southern part of the Ito region, just to the west of the bridge that connects to Legend Island.

Here is how to pinpoint it on the map:

• Focus your attention on the north/northeast quadrant of Japan. This is the Ito region, a beautiful coastal area characterized by its proximity to the locked-off “Legend Island.”
• The game helps players find this spot by marking it with a small T-shaped set of dotted lines extending into the ocean, signaling the presence of the seaweed farm.
• The road is specifically near a crashed boat on the beach, where you can find a farm of seaweed.

Once you spot that T-shaped path on the map pushing into the sea, you are in the right area. It is genuinely easy to overlook because most players assume driving into the water resets the car. It does not here – the road is shallow and drivable.

How to Get to Seabed Road – Step by Step

Method 1 – Fast Travel to Sekibe Kaijo Trailblazer

Fast travel to the Sekibe Kaijo Trailblazer event north of Meoto Iwa Rock and then drive a bit north until you see the farm. From there, head toward the beach and look for the crashed boat on the shoreline. The road will be right there leading into the water.

Method 2 – Fast Travel to Forest Straight Speed Zone

Travel to the Forest Straight Speed Zone and head southeast. Drive toward the coastline and follow the shore until you see the seaweed farm and the crashed boat.

Method 3 – Follow the Coastline from Pier Pressure

Seabed Road can be easily reached by following the coastline from the Pier Pressure Wristband Event. Just hug the shoreline heading in the direction of Legend Island and you will eventually come across the seaweed farm on your left.

How to Discover Seabed Road and Earn the Points

Once you are at the crashed boat on the beach, the process is simple:

1. Find the path leading directly into the water from the shore.
2. Drive onto it. Yes, you are driving into the sea. The road is shallow enough for any vehicle.
3. Keep driving on it to pass some seaweed, and once you reach the end of the road, you should see a notification that the Seabed Road has been officially discovered, earning you some Discover Japan Points.

By simply passing through the designated area, you will earn points without having to take a photo or compete in a race or challenge. It is one of the easiest 25 points you can collect in the whole game.

The road is shallow and accessible by any vehicle, from a low-slung supercar to a heavy off-road truck. You won’t get stuck or require a 4×4. So drive whatever is in your garage – no special preparation needed.

Do Not Miss the 3,000 XP Bonus Board

Seabed Road also features a 3,000 Horizon XP board, so make sure to break it for an extra reward. While you are already driving out here, it costs nothing to smash it and get the XP boost. Every board adds up over time, and this one is tucked in a spot most players never find.

If you are hunting all the boards across the map, check out our guides on the all 200 Bonus Boards locations and how to get XP and level up fast.

How to Complete the Under the Sea Skill at Seabed Road

At Seabed Road, players are required to destroy the poles that support the seaweed nets to earn the Under the Sea skill. This is the only place in the entire game where you can perform this skill, so if a challenge asks for it, this is where you need to go.

Here is how to do it:

• Drive onto Seabed Road as described above.
• As you pass through the seaweed farm, aim for the poles holding up the nets.
• Smash through them to trigger the Under the Sea skill notification.

Certain challenges require performing the Under the Sea skill with specific cars, such as the 1984 Open Manta 400. The 1984 Open Manta 400 can be purchased for 152,000 credits at the Autoshow or unlocked by completing the third tier of Dirt Trials.

If you just need the Discovery point and are not chasing a specific challenge, any car will work fine. But if a weekly or seasonal challenge sends you here with a required vehicle, make sure you check the challenge conditions before driving out.

For more on completing seasonal challenges efficiently, see our seasonal events and Festival Playlist guide.

What Is the Under the Sea Skill Good For?

The Under the Sea skill counts toward your in-game skill chain and contributes to Car Mastery progression. If you are grinding skills and Skill Points, adding a stop at Seabed Road into a longer drive is a smart way to tick off multiple things at once.

Common Mistakes When Looking for Seabed Road

A few things trip players up when searching for this location:

• Avoiding the water out of habit: In many racing games, driving into the water means a reset. Forza Horizon 6 includes specific paths that lead into the sea, and players conditioned by other games often steer clear of the shoreline. At Seabed Road, the water is shallow and the road is real – just drive in.
• Missing the T-shape on the map: The location is marked by a small T-shaped set of dotted lines extending into the ocean. If you zoom in on the Ito coast near Legend Island’s bridge, you will see it.
• Stopping too early: Once you see the crashed boat on the sand, head onto the path leading straight into the water. Keep going until the Discovery notification pops. Stopping short means no points.
