Old School RuneScape (OSRS)

The oceans feel busy already, so this guide shows the world players are using for Sailing and why it works well during launch.

The Current Best Sailing World

Most players are using World 302 for Sailing right now, even though no official Sailing worlds exist yet. If you want another option, 422 has seemed pretty active as well as of this writing.

Why World 302 Became The Sailing Hub

Player traffic and activity

World 302 has heavy traffic so it formed the natural meeting spot for early Sailing. You see more ships, more chat, and more players running the same routes. This makes the first levels feel smoother since you always know where to go by watching others.

Good for early quests and tasks

Port Sarim, The Pandemonium, and nearby seas stay busy on 302. You will see other players charting, trimming sails, or running courier tasks which helps new players understand the flow.

Social groups and clans

Clans seem to often gather on 302 for new content. If you like talking while you travel or showing off your boat name that sounds like a cursed pet name, this world keeps things lively.

When To Swap Worlds For Sailing

Cleaner performance

If turning or trimming feels delayed, move to a medium population world. This makes Barracuda Trials, salvaging, and trawling easier to control.

Less crowded ports

Shipyards get packed on 302. Switching worlds helps when you want to upgrade parts, reclaim a capsized boat, or enter quests without squeezing past a wall of skiffs.

Easier charting

Charting markers get stacked on high traffic worlds. A low population world gives some visually open space and clean routes for early XP.

Final Blurb

World 302 is the main Sailing world for now and works well if you want action around every corner. Swap to a quieter world when you need smoother movement or clear waters for harder content.
