Boat tour
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.
Types of islands
- Note that all island names are conjectural unless otherwise stated.
Gyroid
Date
Ground materials
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.
Vegetable
Vegetable islands contain one random type of vegetable. The message bottle that appears on the beach contains a random cooking recipe.
Glowing Moss
Glowing Moss islands contain Vines and Glowing Moss. The message bottle that appears on the beach contains a random vine or glowing moss recipe. If the player has received a good belongings fortune from Katrina and has not yet unlocked the island that was selected, then they are guaranteed to encounter a glowing moss type island instead.

The Star Fragment island always has a meteor shower taking place. In addition, the rocks 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 recipe.
