🦈 Nurse Shark Pet

The Nurse Shark is a limited Rare pet available for 7,000 Compass Coins. To get it, complete the new Litter Pick minigame after each Boat Tour — collect 10 pieces of underwater trash at the diving spot near the hospital on Adoption Island. The Nurse Shark leaves the shop when Week 2 ends.

⛵ Boat Tour Activity

The Truck Tour from Week 1 has been replaced by the Boat Tour, which runs every 15 minutes. Ride along and collect Compass Coins dropped by Beaver Bob during the tour. After each tour, the Litter Pick activity opens — dive into the river and collect garbage to unlock the Nurse Shark purchase option.
