Where to Build Your First Base in Subnautica

I built my first base at the edge of the Safe Shallows and Kelp Forest. You get easy access to Creepvine resources and some sand sharks to spice things up a bit!

Go for the Safe Shallows for your first base. It's close to the surface, has plenty of resources, and isn't too deep, so running out of oxygen isn't a problem.

Don't think too hard about it. Just slap it down anywhere that's convenient and build later!
