Vision is one of the most difficult aspects of Sons of the Forest, but the issue usually relates to darkness rather than distance. Sons of the Forest’s first patch adds the binoculars, which will help you spot enemies and key items from a safe distance. Luckily, no other items like the shovel or rope gun are needed to get them. All you need to do is travel to the beach in the northeastern portion of the map and grab them for yourself. Read on to find out the exact location of the binoculars.
