Tanaris is a path in the World of Warcraft game. Players can reach Gadgetzan in Tanaris by taking a ship at the southern dock to Theramore. From there, the safest way to Gadgetzan is to swim. There are two routes to Tanaris: the first is to enter the newly formed gap in the Thousand Needles that opens into the South Seas. The second route is the safer of the two. Instead of entering Thousand Needles, players can continue south to Steamwheedle Port in Tanaris.

What You'll Learn
Swimming to Gadgetzan
Another route is to enter the newly formed gap in the Thousand Needles that opens into the South Seas. Players should swim along the southern wall of the zone, taking care to swim around the boats and avoid aggroing the Remora Scroungers (level 40) typically found near the seafloor. Once on the Tanaris path, there are no hostile mobs, and players can ride or run to Gadgetzan.
A faster, but more costly way to get to Gadgetzan while swimming is to strategically die as soon as possible upon entering Tanaris. When players reach the southernmost edge of the Theramore area and are about to enter Thousand Needles, they can notice that the area changes to Tanaris. From there, they can drown themselves and rez with the Spirit Healer near Gadgetzan.

Avoiding Remora Scroungers
To avoid Remora Scroungers, players should take the following steps. Firstly, they should enter the newly formed gap in the Thousand Needles that opens into the South Seas. They should then swim along the southern wall of the zone, taking care to swim around the boats (not on land!) The path to Tanaris is a ways off, and players should take care to avoid aggroing the Remora Scroungers (level 40) typically found near the seafloor. Once on the Tanaris path, there are no hostile mobs, and players can ride or run to Gadgetzan.
Alternatively, players can take the ship at the southern dock to Theramore. From Theramore, the safest way to Gadgetzan, especially for lower-level characters, is to swim. Players may want to bring swim speed and/or water-breathing potions along for the sake of convenience. There are some nasty critters in the Theramore harbour, so as you approach by ship, before you get into the harbour, jump into the water and start following the shoreline south to Steamwheedle Port.
