How to unlock the Vacation Vistas achievement in Star Trek Online - Definitive Guide

In order to unlock this achievement, you must be a minimum level 10 in order to get access to Risa.

Once there, you'll need a couple thousand credits (easy enough if you've been selling items you don't need, I had about 14k at this point). From the spawning point, you'll have to turn right to find a Floater vendor. Buy the loaner floater for 1k credits, and we can get started. You may lose the floater after a set amount of time, but just hold A, select "Site-to-Site Transport" and then select "Resort" and it'll take you right back to the spawning point.

The description is a little misleading. By Vista, it means the toucan looking birds scattered around the map. When you find one, it'll give you the option to press A to View Your Surroundings.

The easiest way to find all of them is on the Star Trek Online wiki. They have a map there with every Accolade highlighted. For this achievement, the accolades you want are highlighted with a white dot (thank you to the comments for pointing that out, totally slipped my mind). Here is the link: https://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/sto.gamepedia.com/thumb/f/f...

When you find the final Vista, the achievement should unlock.

Should be noted for this achievement you want the white icons on the wiki map.

I completely forgot. Personally I'm going for all the Accolades here myself, just in case it leads to the Explorer achievement for Risa.

Same here, but I was having issues getting the Onlooker and Fireworks related accolades. I actually saw you after on Risa after I got the achievement, but didn't want to bother you lol.

I was able to get the Fireworks, but Onlooker hasn't appeared yet. The day/night cycle seems to be broken (at least aesthetically), as night events trigger (finding Pavyl, the Unauthorized Party on the beach) but it's in a state of permanent sun, even the fireworks. I've tweeted their official twitter account for STO for advice on it, as I see at least one tracked gamer with the achievement, so either I'm wrong and just wasting time with accolades, or I'm right and it's just buggy.

On top of the island, you'll need the floater to get there.

I wrote it in the solution, but I'll try to clarify more. From the point you spawn on Risa, if you turn to your right on the boardwalk, there is a hut. Inside, there's a vendor where you can rent these from. You need to equip it as if it was an item like a stimpak. Once you use it, it appears on your back, and you use the right stick to navigate.

I was able to reach all the vistas on foot except the Back Beach one. So if you want to save Credits like me, it might be worth the effort. Climb up grassy parts of hillsides for some high points. Tower Bay has a path near it to the north.

The summer event started today and if you participate for a short time you can earn enough tokens to purchase a permanent use floater device.

I found a video which does a great job of showing you where to go for all these viewpoints.

I didn't create the video, just sharing it so that you can see where you need to go.

The video guide helped me a lot, thanks for finding it.

So the top solution is already really good, but to add some information to the minimum level 10 requirement and credits for the loaner floater;
Risa can be found in the Risa sector. This is in the beta quadrant, the third square up from the bottom left.

The link in the top solution didn't work for me, and if you don't want to watch the video here is the map I used for the bird vista's. https://www.deviantart.com/chuusha/art/Lohlunat-Festival-Bir...

Hope this helps!

Risa is a social system that has no combat. It is meant for the summer event in STO, but you can go there at any time to explore. The planet is located in the Risa Sector in sector space. For this achievement you will need to purchase a Floater. When you first spawn into the zone walk to the vendor located to the building on the right. Floaters can be bought for 1000 energy credits. The rental floater will last for one hour. If it disappears while you are exploring you can fast travel back to the resort and buy a new one.

This achievement is for earning the Exploration Accolade The Big Year. To earn this accolade there are 10 Vistas that you will need to explore. A "vista" for the game is actually a tropical bird standing on a perch. When you find one you can interact with it and it will show you some of the beautiful scenery. Once you find and interact with one of the birds the accolade with show in the Exploraction Accolade tab and will have clues to all the other bird locations.

The website that I ended up using for this and the Restful Resort achievement is located on a guild website. It has a very good map of all of the locations you will need. LINK

The Vista locations are the green numbers on the map.

You need to “enjoy the view” at several points in the Raiza resort, marked by a parrot. For convenience, you can rent a jetpack at the pier for energy credits.
Video with finding all the locations.
