This guide covers the locations of all lost sectors in Destiny 2. I will try to update it as new locations are added to the game through future expansions.
The guide also includes the bosses at each Lost Sector and the enemy faction types.
Lost Sector Locations
Lost sectors are small underground areas hidden within the various Patrol Zones in the game. They appear in all Locations, including all the locations added post launch. In each Lost Sector, players battle a number of enemies, leading up to the Champion (a boss). Once the Champion has been killed, it drops a code used to open a Lost Sector Chest and complete the lost sector.
Earth – European Dead Zone
