Shipwreck Strand is a zone in the Castora region introduced with the Guild Wars 2: Visions of Eternity expansion. Its western side is connected to Starlit Weald.
It is located on Castora's coast and contains a great variety of flora. The wrecks of ships lost to the harsh waters surrounding the region have washed up on the shores here, giving the zone its name.[1]
