  • Between Pleasant Park and Lazy Lagoon
  • Southwest of Dusty Divot
  • Northwest of Paradise Palms

To bounce them, simply pull out your harvester/ pickaxe and hack away at it when you’re stood next to it. Note that weapons will not work. Do this in five different matches and you’re ready to move onto the next one.

How to Get Eliminations with the Daily Unvaulted Weapon or Dumgun

There’s a different unvaulted weapon that’s coming to Fortnite each day during the event, and they’re pretty much scattered everywhere with a high drop rate. Simply use one of these, or either the uncommon or rare variant Drumgun to rack up five eliminations. Playing Team Rumble is particularly useful for completing this challenge in a single match, thanks to its respawn system.

Challenge Reward: Water Balloon

How to Thank the Bus Driver & Finish Top 20 in Different Matches

All you need to do to complete this one is press down on the d-pad, or press B on PC while you’re in the Battle Bus at the start of a game to thank the bus driver. Then, finish in the top 20. We advise staying around the outskirts of the map and avoiding named locations that are likely to be busy.

Hiding in buildings and only moving when you need to is another good way of reaching top 20. You need to do this five times to complete this 14 Day of Summer challenge.

Challenge Reward: Perfect Blend Emoticon

Here’s where you can find them all, as illustrated on the map above.

After this, you can simply equip it to one of your emote wheel hotspots on the Locker page. After that, once you’re in the pre-game lobby, throw one at the feet of another player. Do this three times to quickly complete this challenge.

Challenge Reward: Summertime Splashdown Loading Screen

All Giant Beach Umbrella Locations

Fortnite 14 Days of Summer challenge locations

There are six different giant beach umbrellas on Fortnite’s map. They can be located as shown on the map above, and also as noted below. To bounce on them, simply build up to them, or glide down onto them. You’ll glow purple and won’t take any damage upon landing after doing so.

  • Southwest of Lonely Lodge
  • Just on the northern outskirts of Paradise Palms
  • Northwest of Fatal Fields by the bridge
  • On the hill west of Dusty Divot
  • Below the sky platform southwest of Pleasant Park

How to Score Points with a Driftboard with the Neon Tropics Applies to It Fast & Easy

After you’ve completed the ‘Search Unicorn Floaties at Swimming Holes’ challenge, you’ll unlock the Neon Tropics wrap. To apply this, head to the locker and select the first wrap slot on the left. Apply Neon Tropics and head into a game.

Driftboards can be found in a number of places, across the map, including by the RV on the east coast of Loot Lake.

Once you’ve got this driftboard, we advise heading to Dusty Divot, prepare to jump and hold your boost until you’re right at the edge of the divot. Jump and boost, tilting your left analog stick back to begin doing backflips. Do about three or four and land on the trees for an easy 250,000 trick points in a single jump.

Challenge Reward: Surfstick Spray

Where to Launch Fireworks Found Along the River Bank in Fortnite 14 Days of Summer

Fortnite 14 Days of Summer challenge locations

The next Fortnite 14 Days of Summer challenge tasks you with launching three fireworks found along the river bank. These run from the very north of the island’s river that runs down the center of the map, right towards the south. You can find them marked on the map above, and at the following locations:

  1. North of Beach Umbrella at Lazy Lagoon
  2. Waterfall south of Lazy Lagoon
  3. East side of Loot Lake by the RV
  4. Just north of the beach party southeast of Neo Tilted
  5. South of Neo Tilted

Where to Get a Score of 10 or More on a Carnival Clown Board

Fortnite 14 Days of Summer challenge locations

There are six Carnival Clown Boards in Fortnite, and they can all be found at the beach parties previously mentioned, and as shown on the map above. When you’re visiting one of the parties, simply walk on over to one of the boards and press and hold X/Square/ E/ Y to interact with it. Then, use your harvester to swipe at the center of the balloons that come out of the holes.

Do this 10 times and you’ll have completed the challenge. It’s worth heading to one of the desert beach parties, or the one north of Lazy Lagoon, as these tend to be quieter and you’ll be able to get a score of 10 or more in peace and quiet.

Challenge Reward: Beachballs Contrail

Huge Rubber Ducky Location for Fortnite 14 Days of Summer Challenge

The huge rubber ducky that you need to visit alongside a giant beach umbrella in a single match is a bit of a tricky one. Where we previously thought that aforementioned duck with cool shades stayed in one location, it’ll actually travel up the river by Neo Tiled and sometimes roam into Loot Lake, too. It’s pretty enormous, though, so it’s not too difficult to spot as you’re gliding down.

Challenge Reward: Quack Pack Back Bling

Where to Search the Tiny Rubber Ducky in Summertime Splashdown Loading Screen

While this 14 Days of Summer challenge is due to get some changes due to how difficult some players are finding it, we’ve got the location marked for you above. When you land here, you’re looking out for a bathtub by a tree. The tiny rubber duck can be found inside, but you’ll need to be the first player to land there and interact with the duck otherwise it disappears for good.

Challenge Reward: Sparkles Music
