Warm Ocean
Warm Ocean — biome.
Natural resources
The reef is a source of living coral, coral fans, kelp, and sea pickles. Collect living coral with water nearby and bring a safe return route: a reef is easy to recognise on the way in but harder to find again after the seafloor has been altered.

Natural generation
Warm oceans contain coral reefs, kelp, sea pickles, and amethyst geodes. Clear water and a broad seafloor make the biome one of the best places to read the terrain from the surface, while the reef colours provide a natural landmark for navigation. Sand and clay commonly frame the shallow edge, so a shoreline base can move between building supplies and open water without a long transfer route. World generation also includes caves, canyons, underwater magma, and the usual ocean ore and disk features below the reef.

Exploration and building
Warm-ocean reefs supply colourful coral blocks and fans, living sea plants, and a readable route between islands. A water-breathing plan, a boat, and a way to mark the return path turn the open seafloor into a useful resource trip rather than a blind dive.
Sounds
The biome uses the normal game track above water, creative music in creative mode, and underwater music while submerged. Each background track uses the same 12,000–24,000 tick delay range from the biome record.

Climate and environment
Tropical fish, pufferfish, dolphins, nautiluses, squids, glow squids, and drowned can spawn in this biome. The open water supports boat travel and swimming, but coral and sea pickles need the water around them to remain in place if the reef is being used as a living decoration.

Data values
The biome uses the `minecraft:warm_ocean` identifier and a warm aquatic climate profile. Its generated signature is the coral-and-clear-water palette, with reef blocks and sea vegetation concentrated around the seafloor.
