PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds map guide: find the best places to drop on Sanhok
The most recent addition to the PUBG map pool, Sanhok, is certainly the most unique of the three. It gets rid of the 8x8km size that both Erangle and Miramar boast, and cuts it down to a much smaller 4x4km, and, even then, a significant portion of that is water. A Sanhok map guide is handy to have because the small spaces and tweaked circle settings mean that matches are much quicker and usually offer up a lot more fights.
But this also puts a lot of pressure on where you choose to land if you want to walk out with a chicken dinner. The smaller space means you are more likely to land with someone if you head to a main location, so you need to be able to fight early to succeed. Landing at a small unnamed compound is way more viable on Sanhok than other maps, but if you are someone that likes guaranteed loot, you will want to try and head to one of these locations.
Paradise Resort
Paradise resort is one of the few named areas towards the center of the map and offers some solid loot for anyone that goes there. It’s actually a pretty large area, so can handle multiple people dropping, but the open courtyards you have to cross mean at some point you are probably going to be in a fight. Even if you think it's far enough away from the plane path that no one will go there, there’s always a very high chance of someone joining you.
As well as being a popular location, there is also a lack of vehicle spawns. Now that’s not often a massive issue because walking anywhere in Sanhok is pretty easy early on, but is something to keep in mind. However, neither of these issues should be enough to turn you away - the loot here is great and if you survive you’ll be in a solid position.
Boot Camp
Boot Camp should really be the equivalent of School or Pecado on Sanhok. Its right in the middle of the map and has really high loot spawn rates, but the key difference here is that the size and layout of Boot Camp mean multiple people can co-exist in the area for quite a while.
There will be a lot of fights, but its not quite on the level where only one person will survive. Multiple people can find their way out of Boot Camp and usually with some great gear. It has perhaps the best loot on the entirety of Sanhok and more than enough to kit out multiple people. Just be sure to check everywhere for dead player boxes, because they will often have done a lot of the looting for you.
Quarry
If you want a more relaxed time then head to the massive quarry,
which is also fairly central. No one drops here because the loot is
limited and you are exposed from pretty much every angle. But as no one
drops anywhere near here you are usually guaranteed an easy first few
minutes.
The loot is the issue, but if you are alone then you can
usually come out with a couple of solid weapons and enough equipment to
see you through. Most of the boxes and crates have a potential loot
spawn on top of them, so be sure to climb up on top of the high ground
areas to locate the best weapons.The big downside here is that anyone passing by will be able to spot you and you will have limited cover and be on the low ground. So this really is a place to drop, grab enough look to get by and then leave and try to hunt kills.
Camp Bravo
Like most of the other camps on Sanhok, Camp Bravo offers some great loot, but its location on the edge of the map can make it a pain if the circle is not kind. If you are confident in your rotations then this is a solid drop, and there are three potential vehicle spawns in very close proximity to the camp to help out in that regard.
If you are challenged by other players on the drop then you want to stay clear of the middle buildings. There’s a ton of open windows here which means you can easily be shot in the back when you least expect it. Stick to the edge if others are with you and try to catch them off guard.
Ha Thin
Ha Thin is a surprisingly large area to loot, and its layout means you can quickly move through it and move on with a decent arsenal in your backpack. It’s viability really depends on the plane path, anything too southern and this is probably a bad call, but if you can reach it easily it is a great drop.
It’s northern position might make it seem like a strange location to drop, but there is a load of vehicle spawns here, for both land and sea, so getting to the first circle will never be an issue. In our minds this is really a top tier drop, sure the loot might not be as reliable as say Boot Camp, but you'd have to be super unlucky to not come out with at least an AR and some acceptable backup.
Sah Mee
Sanhok is certainly lacking in proper urban areas, but Sah Mee is probably the closest you will get. This of course brings a lot of loot, but with it being all in two story houses its not the easiest place to loot efficiently. You’ll also have to be careful when moving from building to building, because it is pretty easy to sneak past someone unnoticed.
Camp Alpha
Camp Alpha is very similar to Camp Bravo, but its position on the smaller northern island makes it slightly less favorable in our opinion. Often having to cross the river is difficult and chances are high you will have to cross at some point if you drop here.
