How To Get To Sakurajima

Sakurajima, which translates to “Cherry Blossom Island”, can be found in the Northwest part of the map.
The island is filled with strong Pals (Lv. 40+), and some will attack you on sight. So, make sure your character and Pal levels are high enough and you’re well-stocked before entering the island.
New Pals In The Sakurajima Update

As mentioned above, there are 24 new Pals for you to find, fight, and catch. Most of them can be found and caught in Sakurajima.
Blazamut Ryu doesn’t spawn anywhere and can only be hatched from a Huge Dragon Egg.
Croajiro, Dazemu, and Mimog are found in Sakurajima, but can also be caught in other areas.
