ThiefLUK · Fast and evasiveHow to Get to Victoria Island in MapleStory Classic World: Shanks and the Southperry Boat
Talk to Shanks at the dock in Southperry on Maple Island. His boat takes you to Lith Harbor on Victoria Island. The trip is one-way: once you leave, you can't go back to Maple Island, so finish anything you want there first.
Quick answer: Southperry → Shanks → Lith Harbor. One-way. Do Pio's chair quest before you board. Community guides agree the fare is 300 mesos; one adds a level 7 minimum.
Step by step
- Finish your Maple Island quests. The last ones point you to the boat anyway. Mai's final training ends with your character deciding it's time to go to Southperry and take the boat, and Rain's Maple Quiz ends the same way.
- Walk to Southperry. It's one of Maple Island's two towns, along with Amherst.
- Talk to Shanks at the dock and board.
- Arrive in Lith Harbor, Victoria Island's port and your first stop.
Two community guides agree Shanks charges 300 mesos. Only one of them says you need to be level 7, so treat that part as unconfirmed. Mai's Final Training and Pio's quest pay 150 mesos each, which covers the fare.
Don't leave these behind
Maple Island can't be revisited after you leave, according to several community sources. The one reward people regret missing:
- Pio's Collecting Recycled Goods (level 5): 100 EXP, 150 mesos and The Green Relaxer, a chair that restores an extra 30 HP every 10 seconds. You only get it on Maple Island.
Maple Island quests also beat grinding there for EXP. See should you quest or grind.
Your first stops in Lith Harbor
Lith Harbor has no job instructor and no monsters. It's a hub. Before you head off:
| Quest | NPC | Level | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| Olaf's First Training | Olaf | 8 | 124 EXP, 277 mesos, 8 Red Potions, 8 Blue Potions |
| Olaf's Second Training | Olaf | 8 | 124 EXP, 277 mesos, 3 Return Scrolls - Nearest Town |
| Teo's Weird Hobby | Teo | 8 | 124 EXP, 277 mesos, 15 Fried Chicken |
| Teo's Even Weirder Hobby | Teo | 8 | 124 EXP, 277 mesos, 1 Sniper Potion, 10 Lemons |
| Phil's Call | Phil | 8 | 188 EXP, 245 mesos, 8 Red Potions, 8 Blue Potions |
Phil's Call matters most. Hit level 10 and come back, and Phil can send you straight to the town of your class: Perion, Ellinia, Henesys or Kerning City. One community guide also notes cabs are 90% off while you're still a Beginner. Then it's time for your level 10 checklist.
