The expansive world of Minecraft may have enormous land biomes, but most of its map, about 51 percent of the game world, comprises oceans . Covering the largest area, oceans also have different biomes based on their temperatures.

Players are always fascinated by oceans and the secrets they hold deep under the water. Ocean monuments, shipwrecks, and ruined temples are some of the secret structures hidden in oceans. There are a total of 10 types of ocean biomes in Minecraft, but some of them are more interesting than others.
