Nintendo Switch Sports Resort photo spots: Spocco Photos, Collectibles and Hidden Caves

Nintendo Switch Sports Resort photo spots sit inside the sightseeing tours, and they are the goal that hands-on previews return to most often. Nintendo calls the collectible Spocco Photos, and the tours are built around finding them across the island. The game releases on October 22, 2026, exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2. Nintendo Switch Sports Resort photo spots are covered here as far as the pre-launch sources allow, with a note wherever the evidence is thin.

The official details that matter most for this page are on Nintendo's UK game page, which lists per-sport player counts. Use it to check the offline and online numbers before you plan a group session.

Nintendo Switch Sports Resort photo spots and Spocco Photos

Nintendo's pages list Spocco Photos as the collectible for the Sightseeing Tour mode. Hands-on previews describe the real goal as collecting photo spots, which is why the tour is built around exploring the whole island rather than following a single route. The collecting therefore depends on the sport you use for the tour, since each leisure sport has its own controls.

Collectibles Shown in Previews

Skateboard wheels are collectibles that one review says can be traded for Spocco Points. Spocco Points are earned online or offline, according to Nintendo's pages, and they are spent in the Item Center, which the Spocco Points guide explains.

Each tour sport adds its own detail to the photo spot hunt, and the table below separates the points that are confirmed from single reports.

Co-op Collecting and Shared Items

Co-op exploration, in split screen or online, shares collected items with everyone, according to previews. That detail matters for group play, because each player gets the shared items the group collects. The sightseeing tour guide lists the tour sports and the solo and co-op setups side by side.

Hidden Areas and Single-Report Details

One preview reports caves that can only be reached by jet ski. No source in the pages checked gives a route, so this guide does not describe where the caves are. Single-report details like this one should be checked against your own play before you rely on them, and Nintendo Switch Sports Resort photo spots in general should be treated the same way when a claim comes from one video.

Practical Tips for Photo Collecting

• Learn the controls of the sport you use for each tour, since Nintendo lists different motions for each of the three leisure sports.
• Play co-op in a split-screen or online session when you want shared items, because previews say those items are shared with everyone.
• Keep your Spocco Points plan simple. Points come from play and go toward the Item Center, which has two item collections each week.
• Pick the tour sport before you head out, since the photo spot detail for each sport is different (see the table above).
