Despite being surrounded by water, fresh drinking water in Stranded Deep is harder to come by than players may think. Still, keeping thirst levels up is necessary if players want to survive and thrive on their new deserted island. Players will often find themselves out in the sun when they reach a deserted island. Naturally, this will cause the thirst meter to drain faster than usual. In order to survive, Stranded Deep players will want to replenish the thirst meter whenever it is about to reach critical levels. Players can check the thirst level by pressing the triangle button on a PlayStation controller. When low, the only place players can find fresh water at the beginning of Stranded Deep would be from coconuts. However, as players progress their survival adventure, they will be able to craft a flask that can be used whenever players want. In addition, Stranded Deep players will also be able to store water each time it rains on the island. Related: How to Build a Shelt
