Explore Altissia in final fantasy xv, starting with the journey and arrival. Learn about checkpoints, shops like Carliano and JM Market, and fishing spots.
As you sail to Altissia, your companions will discuss Luna, the Ring of Lucis, Ravus, and the impending battle with Leviathan. Cid will continue the conversation until you reach Altissia, mentioning Weskham as someone to seek out upon arrival.
Cid will help you pass one checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death) with an old permit. After disembarking, you'll encounter a Gatekeeper at another checkpoint. You must rely on either Cid or Ignis to proceed. If you choose Cid, he will be charged 3,000 Gil, which you will have to refund. Choosing Ignis will save you money.
Your primary objective is to reach the Maagho Restaurant and speak with Weskham. Along the way, you can explore the city, shop, take photos, fish, play Justice Monsters V, and gamble.
Head north-east near a bridge to find two women discussing Luna’s dress, which is on display. This will initiate the quest "Symbol of the Peace".
Return south-west to the dock where you arrived and continue south-west to find the Port Station Gondola Station. Since you don't have the Regalia, gondolas offer a convenient fast-travel option within Altissia. They are free to use. You can take a gondola to the Floating Market Station to reach Maagho.
Head back to the dock where you entered Altissia and turn south-east down an alley. When the alley ends, turn south-west to find the San Ello Plaza Fishing Spot. You may be able to catch Lucinian Sea Bass here.
When you are finished fishing, make your way to the north-eastern end of this island and cross a bridge south-east to another, smaller island. Head to the north-eastern corner of this island, and Prompto will mention a nearby photo opportunity, starting the quest "Photo-Op: Bar". You will need to reach Maagho to complete this request.
From the north-eastern corner of this island, turn north-east to find another bridge leading to another island. Cross it and follow the eastern coast to find the Ministerial Quarter Station Gondola Station. Continue north-east along the coast to discover the Purgola Canal Fishing Spot, where you can catch various Sea Bass.
Make your way north-west to the island north of where you arrived and search the eastern shore to find the Carliano store, which sells accessories. Available items include:
- Bulletproof Vest - 5,000 Gil
- Fireproof Inners - 3,000 Gil
- Warm Inners - 3,000 Gil
- Insulated Inners - 3,000 Gil

- Heliodore Bracelet - 2,000 Gil
- Talisman - 1,500 Gil
- Knight’s Anklet - 2,500 Gil
- Oracle Card - 2,500 Gil
Continue north-east to the north-western corner of the island with the Carliano store to find a bridge. Beyond this bridge is the JM Market - Altissia.
This market sells Ethers, Remedies, and a variety of car parts, including the Superhydrophobic Coating mod (a community-made modification that changes the game) for 3,000 gil. You can also purchase Memories of FF TYPE-0, decals, and fishing supplies like the Stormer lure and the Gemlight: Caster Carbuncle lure for 3,000 gil. Additionally, you can buy the Cactuar Sculpture Key Item for 3,000 gil.
