This page is an overview of all ocean biomes.

List of all ocean biomes:

• Ocean
  • Deep
• Frozen Ocean
  • Deep
• Cold Ocean
  • Deep
• Lukewarm Ocean
  • Deep
• Warm Ocean

Deep warm oceans do exist in bedrock edition, but are unused, so they aren't included in this article.

Oceans are vast expanses of water from sea level to the ocean floor, which is at a depth of roughly Y=45 for normal oceans and Y=30 for deep variants. The seafloor is fairly hilly, featuring multiple peaks and valleys.

All oceans together are the largest biomes by area, covering anywhere around 28–29% of the surface area of the Overworld when factoring in all of its variants.

All oceans are vast bodies of water that usually take up a lot of space. They all generate with ocean ruins, which are either there warm or cold variant. All oceans have a deep variant except for warm oceans. Ocean Monuments generate in these deep variants.

Oceans generate with seagrass and kelp along the floor, which is made of sand or gravel. The floors of non-deep oceans can generate patches of dirt and clay.

Frozen oceans do not generate with seagrass or kelp. The surface of frozen oceans are covered with ice, but not deep frozen oceans. Both frozens oceans and deep frozen oceans generate large icebergs.

Cold oceans have less seagrass compared to other ocean biomes, while deep cold oceans have more amounts of large seagrass. Cold ocean ruins generate in these biomes. Cold ocean floors mainly consist of gravel.

Lukewarm oceans have more seagrass compared to other ocean biomes, and deep lukewarm oceans have more amounts of large seagrass. Warm ocean ruins generate in these biomes. Lukewarm ocean floors mainly consist of sand. Pufferfish can spawn in these biomes.

Warm ocean floors mainly consist of sand, similarly to lukewarm oceans. Coral reefs and sea pickles are exclusive to this biome. Zombie nautili that spawn in this biome spawn as coral zombie nautiluses. Warm oceans do not have a deep variant, so ocean monuments can't spawn here.

Biome	Seagrass	Kelp	Ocean Ruins	Has Deep Variant
Ocean	Yes	Yes	Cold	Yes
Frozen Ocean	No	No	Cold	Yes
Cold Ocean	Rarely	Yes	Cold	Yes
Lukewarm Ocean	Yes	Yes	Warm	Yes
Warm Ocean	Yes	No	Warm	No
