Bone Beach Overview

Bone Beach is a southeast mining region built around the corpse of the Dreadworm, with routes that take Mina both outside and inside the carcass.

Use this page as the region-level hub for navigation and verified location lookups. For every counted collectible, open the dedicated Bone Beach All Collectibles Guide.

How to Get to Bone Beach

Bone Beach is reached through Sandfalls. From the Southern Outskirts cave route, continue into Sandfalls, use bombs to clear the TNT mine-cart obstacles, and open the central mine. The central entrance requires 3 Plasma Vials.

Inside that mine, defeat Major Miner in Sandfalls: Miner's Den. Major Miner still belongs to Sandfalls; defeating him is the final progression gate before the route carries you into Bone Beach.

Once you arrive, use the region map below for orientation. For a trackable version, open the Interactive Bone Beach Map.

Bone Beach Train Station / Sandy Station

The nearby train stop is best classified as Sandfalls: Sandy Station, not as a Bone Beach map entity. It sits south of Sifted Sands and is reached by clearing the southeast TNT route. Some walkthroughs call it the “Bone Beach Train Station” because it serves the route toward Bone Beach, but this site keeps the station under Sandfalls to avoid mixing region data.

You can physically reach Sandy Station while clearing Sandfalls. Train travel itself becomes available after the shared train restoration fund reaches 10,000 Bones. Once the train is running, it also provides the initial route to Coltrane Peak. Open Sandy Station in the Interactive Map →

Bone Beach Region Boundary Notes

Sandfalls and Bone Beach contain a few transition screens whose displayed area names can change depending on how Mina enters them. The current Wiki specifically flags Shoreline Generator / Bone Rush Trail as ambiguous: the same screen can be treated as Sandfalls or Bone Beach depending on the approach.

For this site, item and boss ownership follows the current entity/location data rather than visual proximity. That means Major Miner and Sandy Station stay under Sandfalls, while Joule Syringe, Polyp Lamp, and Mined Mind stay under Bone Beach. Coltrane Peak is not treated as a direct Bone Beach land connection; it is initially reached by train.
