Where Is Shearwater Bridge in Stardew Valley Expanded?
Shearwater Bridge location
Shearwater Bridge is immediately east of Pelican Town. Walk to the eastern edge of Town from the Museum/Blacksmith side and take the road at roughly the same height as those buildings. The Town map's east-edge exits at y 72–76 lead directly onto the bridge.
Do you need to unlock it?
The Pelican Town entrance is part of the normal SVE map and does not require a quest. If the optional Grampleton Fields pack is installed, its west-side connection is added at the far end of the bridge. Without that optional pack, the bridge remains a fishing and event location rather than a route into Grampleton Fields.
SVE fish at Shearwater Bridge

|---|---|---|---|
| Minnow | All seasons | 6:00 AM–6:00 PM, sunny | Level 0 |
| Butterfish | Spring, Summer | 6:00 AM–2:00 AM, sunny | Level 0 |

Forage and artifact spots
SVE's bundled Farm Type Manager content pack defines a dedicated Custom_ShearwaterBridge forage area. Its base roll is 1–3 items at 6:00 AM, restricted to grass or diggable tiles, and each spawn expires after one day. FTM applies SVE's global 2% extra-spawn multiplier per effective Foraging level, so the final count can occasionally be one higher than the base roll.
| Season | FTM forage pool |
|---|---|
| Spring | Wild Horseradish, Daffodil, Leek, Dandelion, Common Mushroom |
| Summer | Spice Berry, Grape, Sweet Pea, Common Mushroom, Red Mushroom |
| Fall | Morel, Wild Plum, Blackberry, Hazelnut, Chanterelle, Common Mushroom, Red Mushroom, Purple Mushroom |
| Winter | Holly, Crystal Fruit, Crocus |
These current daily spawns come from SVE's [FTM] pack, not from the map's legacy seasonal-object properties or a vanilla Data/Locations.Forage list. If Farm Type Manager is missing or below SVE's required version, this forage routine will not run. Artifact spots are separate: the SVE location record explicitly defines the bridge's artifact pool, though the actual drop remains random.
If Kittyfish is missing
Kittyfish is not present from the start. Complete Camilla's Shearwater Bridge event first, then return in Fall or Winter with effective Fishing level 8 or higher. Event 69069247 adds the location entry, while the fish record separately enforces the level requirement.
