Switch Sports Resort Photo Spots: All 105 Sightseeing Locations (Prop Plane)

What are sightseeing photo spots in Switch Sports Resort?

Sightseeing photo spots are 105 numbered snapshot locations along the Prop Plane route over Wuhu Island and Wedge Island — each one a floating camera marker that records a card when you fly into it. The route’s own numbering runs from #001 Luxury Hotel Paraíso to #105 Proving Waters, and that on-screen count independently corroborates the 105 Prop Plane photos VGC’s review reported (previously single-source on this wiki’s Spocco Photos overview).

Every spot you claim pops a card with four things: the spot’s catalog number, its name, a photo thumbnail, and a one-line description that usually doubles as a location hint. Milestone banners like “3 spots found” and “5 photos found” track your run as you go.

For where photos sit in the bigger completion picture — points, missions, outfits — start with all collectibles and unlockables and customization.

How do you find each photo spot?

Fly the route with the minimap open: every photo spot is a red pin, and the white ring is you. When you reach a pin, look for the floating Spocco Resort camera marker — touch it and the card records automatically. Three habits from the full route video make the hunt faster:

1. Read the card hints. Descriptions name their own landmarks: Ritzy Beach belongs to “reclusive celebrity guests of the VIP hotel,” and Wedge Island Marina is “Wedge Island’s main entrance, always abuzz with guests hefting golf bags.”
2. Match the landscape to the pin. Spots sit on cliffs, inside sea grottos, at stadium venues — and some float high in the sky with no landmark at all.
3. Use the map’s zoom. The minimap zooms in near dense areas, so pins stay readable along the port town and the islet chains.

Spot #002’s card even explains the geology — cooled magma from a lateral vent. Watch at 0:14

Which spots does the plane route visit?

The full 105-spot route sweeps the resort coast, the volcano, the island interior, the port town, the open water, and finishes around Wedge Island. GameXplain’s “All 105 Sightseeing Photo Spots” plane guide flies the catalog in numeric order over about nine minutes, and the walkthrough below groups that flight into stretches with the waypoints verified on-screen.

All 105 Sightseeing Photo Spots | Switch Sports Resort Plane Guide

The opening stretch: the resort shore and volcanic cliffs (#001-#007)

The route starts on the resort waterfront — #001 Luxury Hotel Paraíso, “a members-only hotel exclusively for VIPs and celebrities” — then climbs the black volcanic cliffs beside it. #002 Igneous Crust sits on a lateral magma vent, and #003 Ritzy Beach hides in a cliff-ringed cove.

The VIP-hotel hint on Ritzy Beach’s card is exactly how the game teaches you its map. Watch at 0:21

The volcano block: tunnels and the caldera (#008-#015)

The route then threads the mountain. #008 Wuhu Tunnel is a live highway tunnel — the card warns to be “extra cautious or extra fast” — and the block ends inside the caldera at #015 Maka Wuhu. Per the card, “Maka” means volcano in the language of the island’s indigenous people.

Tunnel spots have live traffic below — hold your line and keep speed. Watch at 0:46

The caldera rim marks the volcano block’s highest-profile card. Watch at 1:26

Sky stops over the lake country (#016-#020)

Not every spot needs a landmark — #020 Hot-Air Balloons floats among three checkered balloons high above the lakeside half of the island. Climb first, then line up the marker.

Sky spots are pure positioning checks — no terrain to read. Watch at 1:50

Inland venues and the west coast arches (#021-#031)

The middle of the island mixes sport venues with rock formations. #025 Bowling Alley’s card notes 22 indoor lanes, and #031 Pirate’s Eye asks you to thread an eye-shaped arch on the west coast.

Venue cards preview their interior in the photo thumbnail — useful for recognizing the building from the air. Watch at 2:30

Arch spots reward a slow approach — line up the hole before committing. Watch at 3:08

Sea caves, islets and the port town (#032-#074)

The route’s longest block sweeps the grottos and islet chains on the way to the south-east port town. #052 Aqua Cove hides inside a dark sea grotto, #060 Dragon’s Belly runs through a lit hillside tunnel, #069 Pumice Sculpture waits by the palms under the red suspension bridge, #070 Port Town Main Gate fronts the beach promenade, and #074 Candle Jr. marks the red-and-white lighthouse islet offshore.

Grotto markers sparkle the moment you claim them — easy to confirm in the dark. Watch at 4:59

The red suspension bridge is the port-town stretch’s best landmark. Watch at 6:29

The gate card doubles as a travel tip: reach the main island by ferry or over Wavelet Bridge. Watch at 6:35

The open-water crossing (#075-#099)

Between the port town and the final island, the route heads out over open sea — #091 Downswing Dropoff and #095 Dolphin-Watching sit among yachts, sailboats and marker buoys with no shoreline in reach.

Open-water spots are the easiest to overshoot — watch the white ring on the minimap, not the scenery. Watch at 8:23

Wedge Island: the golf-course finale (#100-#105)

The catalog’s last six spots ring the second island. #100 Snout Rock hides in a sea cave off the golf-course shore, the Wedge Island golf holes (1, 3, 5 and 7 all appear) and Cafe Three-Putt line the fairways, #103 Wedge Island Marina marks the main entrance, and #105 Proving Waters closes the route under the Spocco Resort arch.

The #100 cave sits just off Wedge Island’s golf shoreline. Watch at 8:48

Marina cards name their traffic — golf bags, here — so you can recognize the dock from altitude. Watch at 9:05

Spot #105 Proving Waters ends the catalog under the Spocco Resort watersports arch. Watch at 9:10

How long does a full photo-spot hunt take?

Budget several sightseeing sessions rather than one perfect run. Major reviews time structured sightseeing tours at about five minutes, and the full-route video is edited across multiple sessions — the tour clock resets between stretches while the catalog numbering carries on. Practical split: the resort-to-port-town stretch covers roughly the first 74 spots and most of the landmarks, the open-water crossing is fast, and the Wedge Island finale is short but demands the inter-island hop — the Port Town Main Gate card itself points to the ferry or Wavelet Bridge.

Keep the hunt inside timed tours for now: the Spocco Photos overview tracks the open question of whether Free Roam progress counts. Vehicle controls live in the Prop Plane sport guide, and general island navigation in Wuhu Island exploration.
