All Sand Land map symbols and what they mean

Sand Land has two giant maps filled with areas to explore, bosses to challenge, and quests to complete. To keep track of these varied points of interest during your journey, the overworld maps are covered in different markers you should try to learn. 

As you traverse through Sand Land’s maps, you can track your progress in each region based on what markers you have visited and how many secrets you have unlocked. Quests and other important information will also show up with different symbols that you can toggle on and off depending on what you are looking for. If you plan to try and explore every inch of Sand Land and Forest Land, here’s every map symbol listed and explained.
