There are only two regions to check for Kelpsea in Palworld, and both of them are decently easy to access fairly early on. The first location is southeast of the Ravine Entrance fast travel point and the second is all along the coast right next to the Azurobe Hill fast travel point.

This Pal is hanging around both areas both in daytime and nighttime. Kelpsea are often swimming around in the water, so if you’re having trouble finding them at either of these spots, make sure you scan both the land and any bodies of water nearby.

If you don’t want to obtain a Kelpsea this way, you can instead try finding a Damp Egg. When you hatch this type of egg using an Egg Incubator, there’s a chance a Kelpsea might end up hatching from it. The exact Pal you get is random, but it will always be a Water-type with this egg.

How to catch Kelpsea in Palworld

Kelpsea is generally a pretty easy Pal to catch, even with a basic Pal Sphere, so your best bet for obtaining one yourself is just hitting it a couple of times with a weapon to increase your chance of success then throwing a Pal Sphere at it. You can also enlist some Electric-type Pals like Grizzbolt, Jolthog, or Mossanda Lux to help quickly knock down Kelpsea’s health, but be careful of letting them deal too much damage, which will result in them killing this Pal before you can catch it.
