Even though the life of a pirate or global trader can be quite busy, you can always make some time to find that special someone. Fortunately, the search won’t take too long with Dreaming Isles’ available bachelors and bachelorettes, getting you closer to your new married life.
Here’s a look into all Dreaming Isles romance options, including where to find them.
Dreaming Isles marriage candidate guide
Dreaming Isles features eight bachelors and bachelorettes for you to romance. These characters differ from others, presenting seven hearts as opposed to the standard five. Marriage candidates can also help you out with specific tasks, like crafting cannonballs, repairing ships, or providing discounts. You’ll likely encounter them after opening the farmhouse and repairing the boat. Since the game just released, I’m still working through what benefits they offer and their exact role in the storyline, but for now, here’s what I could find out about each Dreaming Isles romance option:
Thabisa
Location: Moon Hollow
Thabisa owns a shop at the mystical Moon Hollow, to the left of the starter island. She often sells seeds, tools, and gear inside her store. But if you can’t locate her here, she’ll likely be lingering around the bridge, looking out at the breathtaking scenery of the Dreaming Isles.
Sai
Location: Moon Hollow
In addition to Thabisa, you’ll encounter Sai near the Moon Hollow tower. He’ll initially mistake you for someone else, believing you to be a Pecunia representative tasked with fixing the tower. You’ll need to progress further with your occult powers to help him out with this endeavor.
Nyx
Location: Scythe
If you’re exploring Scythe, it’s not hard to miss the stand-out pumpkin house, which the blue-haired Nyx owns. Like many characters, she seems to have a knack for magical abilities, predicting your arrival to this pirate-run town. Apart from Nyx’s home, you can talk to her at the local tavern near the cooking station or dance floor.
Jesse
Location: Scythe
In Jesse’s younger days, he dreamt of becoming a pirate but was deterred by the chaotic nature of the lifestyle. Now, he takes pride in his work as a shop owner in Scythe, selling off wares he’s bartered from pirates. You can either find him at his store or chatting up at the local bar, always ready to share a tale or two.
Inigo
Inigo seems to be a craftsman of sorts, as his house includes various tools and a crafting station. He tends to linger around different spots in Scythe, including at the tavern, his home, and a bridge on the map’s right side.
Leith
Location: Freestad
Up north, you’ll discover the snowy Freestad, where the crafter Leith resides. While he mainly takes care of gear and weapons, he is also interested in sailing, claiming to have one of the fastest boats in town.
Freya
Location: Freestad
Freya is a resident of Freestad who seems to have a love for fishing. Her house can be found north, on the right side. If she’s not there, she may be near the water side down south or possibly the tavern.
Bella
The otherworldly Bella is one of the easiest Dreaming Isles romance options to locate, as she can be found right at the main tower of Witch Island. Similar to Nyx, she predicts your arrival to these lands and is curious to see what you’ll do next.
According to Dreaming Isles developer Yawningdad, two more marriage candidates will be available in Quarter 1 of 2026. But, before then, children will be added on for specific romance options around mid-2025. So, make sure to check back for more updates to uncover Dreaming Isles’ exciting new family features.
