RDR2: Can You Get Back To Guarma After The Story?

A glitch makes it possible to access Red Dead Redemption 2’s Guarma, even after the story moves on from the tropical island. With much to do and see on the island, it’s one location players will certainly want to add to their bucket list upon finishing the singe-player campaign.

Guarma plays a big role in Chapter 5 of Red Dead Redemption 2’s story, as the main characters become stranded on the fictional island after fleeing the U.S. on a boat following the bank heist that went wrong. But once players escape the island, it appears it’s no longer accessible on the regular map, which is a shame given all of the foreign terrain left to explore.

However, it turns out that it’s actually possible to return to Guarma even after the single-story campaign moves on, though it’s certainly not easy. With a whole lot of patience and hard work, RDR2 players can find themselves once again enjoying the beautiful sights of Guarma.

How To Canoe To Guarma In Red Dead Redemption 2

In order to access Guarma’s location in Red Dead Redemption 2, players must first activate the glitch that allows them to exit the main map, Esquire advises. Once activated, players should head northeast towards Lannahechee. There are various canoes located along the east bank players can then grab and start rowing. Go in a northern direction from here, making sure to stay to the left side of the river.

Players must keep tapping the rowing button until they’re officially out of the map, while still staying close to the east bank. Then, maneuver the canoe around the mass of land to the right-hand side. Keep rowing north towards the direction of Guarma. Be warned that it’s a long journey. Eventually, the player will reach the shore of Guarma and can get out and explore. Luckily, the boat cannot sink, even if the waves are large. If the boat capsizes, it simply flips upright and players can swim towards it and hop back in, making the journey easier on players.

There’s a ton to explore in Guarma, which makes the long journey well worth the trip. Players can look around most of RDR2’s hidden island freely, and there are various things to discover, from hidden treasure to new animals. Interestingly, however, there are no horses or wagons available on Guarma, so players have to stick just their feet. There are also no boats, so if players stray too far from their original canoe, they may never be able to find it again. Be careful not to engage the army, however, as players stand no chance with no weapons at their disposal. Although it definitely takes substantial effort to get back to, exploring Red Dead Redemption 2’s Guarma after completing the story is not only possible but also well worth it.
