Overview[]
The ocean is a biome added in the Vamos a la Playa updates. The ocean occupies around 2/5 of the map. In the ocean, the thirst bar will fill, but the cold bar will decrease faster, and you also lose oxygen. The same effects also occur to the player in the lake and river.
The ocean contains sandy islands, where treasure chests can spawn, and are home to piranhas and the kraken.
The border between the biomes and the ocean is the beach, the crabs' home and where sand can be gathered infinitely, using any type of shovel.
Tips[]
It's recommended that you bring bridges with you when going in the ocean, because otherwise, you can easily drown, freeze to death or be killed by mobs, which are faster than you in water. Also, most players use the islands to travel across the ocean (unless if they have access to bridges). It is certainly possible to travel in the ocean without advanced equipment, but obtaining some sort of diving gear will help you travel faster in the water, and reduce oxygen loss.
Plus it is also possible to get stone/gold/diamond/amethyst from digging sand in the beach., the chance to dig minerals can increase if you use the higher tier of shovel or wearing a Crown of Luck.

Trivia[]
- The islands are considered forest, not ocean. As such, you can place an emerald machine on an island. Also, islands count towards the "Explore each biome for at least 1 day" quest.
