Arat Prime is a massive map, consisting of different biomes, creatures, and more. You can build a base on any position that you want, but a few spots will always be better than the rest. If you're ready to build the perfect base, this guide will help you out.

Disclaimer: There's no so-called 'best' spot. This guide includes options that have different strategic advantages that will make your survival easier.
