Certain islands exist in a different season or time of day from the game clock. This can be taken advantage of to catch out-of-season [[fish]], [[insects]], and [[sea creatures]]. Time still continues to pass on these islands, which can be observed if the player spends several hours on one.

==Probability==
 +
The game first determines if the player will visit a standard island (78%) or a rare island (22%). If the player has received a [[fortune]] for improved belongings [[luck]] that day, this is always guaranteed to be a rare island.<ref>[https://acnh.isomorphicbox.com/updates/2.0.0/ 2.0.0 update ~ Kapp'n]</ref> Otherwise, the game will calculate this as follows:
 +
 +
* If a standard island is chosen, the game will select a standard island type from the ones that haven't been visited in the longest time within the last 7 days. The counter for not visiting a particular island can increase to a maximum of 20 days.
 +
* If a rare island is chosen, a rare island type will be chosen at random.
 +
**If a specific player has not yet ''personally'' experienced the date in their own town that the selected island currently experiences, the game will instead select a standard island. This is always guaranteed to be the Archipelago-style island if the player has received a fortune for improved belongings [[luck]] that day.
 +
 +
==Common factors==
 +
All islands contain a single buried {{I|Gyroid Fragment|NH}}.
 +
 +
Most islands contain fruit trees, which will always bear the player's native fruit, but none of them will ever contain any {{Currency|Bells}}, items, or [[wasp]]s. There is a 5% chance for trees to spawn as money trees, with each bag containing {{Currency|Bells|1000}}.
 +
 +
[[Flower]]s will always be in-season according to the date experienced on the island, but will never be the player's native or sister flowers.
 +
 +
[[Bug]] and [[fish]] spawns will always match the date that the island is experiencing (either fixed or real in-game time), but the time of day will always match the time when the player arrives at the island until they leave (even if this does not match a set time of day on the island).
 +
 +
For standard islands, there is a 29.4% chance of ''one'' of the [[rock]]s being a [[money rock]], and a 2% chance of ''all'' rocks being money rocks. Rare islands will always have at least one money rock present.

Gyroid islands are encountered most frequently between all island types. They contain one Gyroid Fragment about 78% of the time, but about 22% of the time, it will be raining and there will be one additional fully grown [[Gyroid]]. The first island the player visits as well as islands while searching for brewster will always be sunny gyroid type islands. In addition, if the player has received a bad belongings fortune from [[Katrina]] without cleansing, they are guaranteed to encounter a gyroid type island with clay buried in the ground instead of a gyroid fragment.

This is a rarer variant of the generic island with the same possible layouts, but will always experience rain or snow, depending on the time of year that it is visited.

The Star Fragment island always has a [[meteor shower]] taking place. If the player make wishes, star fragments will appear on their own island's beaches on the following day. In addition, the [[rock]]s drop random star fragments, including random seasonal star fragments from every month. The message bottle that appears on the beach contains a random [[Star Fragment#Use in Crafting|star fragment recipe]].

This island is always set to midnight when the player arrives, with a heavy [[meteor shower]] taking place.

The meteor shower on this island is heavier than what the player can ever experience on their own island, with an 80% chance of a shooting star appearing on any given minute instead of the usual 50%. There is then an equal chance for 5 stars or 8 stars to appear within that single minute.

The player on a boat tour island

Boat tours are a service provided by Kapp'n in Animal Crossing: New Horizons beginning in version 2.0. Once per day, the player can pay  1,000 Nook Miles to Kapp'n at the island's pier to travel to a random deserted island, similar to a Mystery Island Tour. Each boat tour island has one Gyroid Fragment buried on it. Uncommonly, islands may have money trees or money rocks on them.

If the player has not been to a Gyroid, rainy Gyroid, Vegetable, or Glowing Moss type island within the last 7 boat tours and none of the other island types are chosen for that day, the island visited will be of one of those four types that has not been visited. If there are multiple, the type visited the longest time ago is selected.

Certain islands exist in a different season or time of day from the game clock. This can be taken advantage of to catch out-of-season fish, insects, and sea creatures. Time still continues to pass on these islands, which can be observed if the player spends several hours on one.

Probability

The game first determines if the player will visit a standard island (78%) or a rare island (22%). If the player has received a fortune for improved belongings luck that day, this is always guaranteed to be a rare island.[1] Otherwise, the game will calculate this as follows:

  • If a standard island is chosen, the game will select a standard island type from the ones that haven't been visited in the longest time within the last 7 days. The counter for not visiting a particular island can increase to a maximum of 20 days.
  • If a rare island is chosen, a rare island type will be chosen at random.
    • If a specific player has not yet personally experienced the date in their own town that the selected island currently experiences, the game will instead select a standard island. This is always guaranteed to be the Archipelago-style island if the player has received a fortune for improved belongings luck that day.

Common factors

All islands contain a single buried Gyroid Fragment.

Most islands contain fruit trees, which will always bear the player's native fruit, but none of them will ever contain any  Bells, items, or wasps. There is a 5% chance for trees to spawn as money trees, with each bag containing  1,000 Bells.

Flowers will always be in-season according to the date experienced on the island, but will never be the player's native or sister flowers.

Bug and fish spawns will always match the date that the island is experiencing (either fixed or real in-game time), but the time of day will always match the time when the player arrives at the island until they leave (even if this does not match a set time of day on the island).

For standard islands, there is a 29.4% chance of one of the rocks being a money rock, and a 2% chance of all rocks being money rocks. Rare islands will always have at least one money rock present.

Types of islands

Note that all island names are conjectural unless otherwise stated.

Standard islands

Standard islands all have multiple possible layouts, one of which will be chosen at random when the player visits an island type.

These islands are encountered most frequently between all island types. This type of island is always guaranteed to be visited upon the player's first boat tour, when searching for Brewster, and whenever the player has received a bad belongings fortune from Katrina (and has not opted for purification). In this latter scenario, the buried gyroid fragment will always be replaced with Clay.

Vines/Glowing Moss

These islands resemble the Archipelago and contain Vines and Glowing Moss. The message bottle that appears on the beach always contains a random vine or glowing moss recipe.

If the player has received a good belongings fortune from Katrina and is not yet able to visit one of the rare island types, then there is a 100% chance to arrive at this island.

This island is always set to midnight when the player arrives, with a heavy meteor shower taking place.
