The Savage Coast is the southern half of Solomon Island, with Kingsmouth being to the northeast and Blue Mountain to the northwest. This is the second zone on Solomon Island that characters will encounter.
While Kingsmouth is the main town on the island, and is the closest to mainland, The Savage Coast is more geared towards the islands tourist industry as well as being the seaward facing portion of the island. On this portion of the island tourists can find the Overlook Motel, Red Oak Beach, Atlantic Island Park, Kingsmouth Lighthouse, and Red's Bait and Tackle. Additionally there is a (very) private academy known as Innsmouth Academy.
There are also a number of houses and buildings here as well for residents preferring to live outside of Kingsmouth town itself.
The south-eastern portion of the island appears to have had a quite sorrowful history, with names like World's End, Suicide Bluff, Calamity Cliff, Hope's End, Lover's Regret. Perhaps tied in with a history of piracy and smugglers coming ashore at Smuggler's Scar.

- Ak'ab, creatures that have been sleeping in nests under the ground for thousands of years, have awoken and are remaking the forests into something more to their liking.
- It turns out there is more to the Atlantic Island Park than simple amusement rides, and the rides themselves seem to be taking victims.

Notable Locations
Agartha Entrance
The entrance to (exit from) Agartha can be found underneath the Miskatonic Bridge at (260, 795). The cave that the portal is located in is also referred to as "The God Cave" by the League of Monster Slayers.
Town Buildings
- Dream Quest Kindergarten - It's unexpected for there to be a need for two kindergartens in a community this small. The other one is the Belmont Avenue Kindergarten in Kingsmouth. Perhaps this one was meant specifically for members of the Wabanaki Tribe who live outside of Kingsmouth.
- Henderson Farm - Not much of it is left now, just a few outbuildings. Most of the land was turned into the Atlantic Island Park
- Innsmouth Academy - A private school for students with special talents.
- Kingsmouth Lighthouse - "Tallest Lighthouse in the entire north-eastern United States". Accessible by a rather dinky rope bridge.
- Overlook Motel - It will never be mistaken for the Ritz, but it was once the main motel for tourists staying on the Island.
- Red's Bait and Tackle - Bait, tackle, souvenirs, kitsch - all your touristy needs.
- Sycoil Gas Station - When you just can't make it those couple extra miles to the one in Kingsmouth town.
- The Black House - Hysteria and closed-mindedness at it's worst, Carrie Killian was burned alive inside that house while neighbors stood by and did nothing.
- The Treehouse - Maybe not an official town building, but don't tell that to the members of the League of Monster Slayers
