16 Best Minecraft Biomes

Minecraft biomes.

No.16: Stony Peaks

Legendary for building bases. It’s incredibly hard to enter the base if you build it on top of the mountains there, making it great to keep invaders out.

No.15: Warm Ocean

You can find coral, tropical fish, and stuff like that. Building a base on top of the water there would be really nice because of the view, but other than that serves no actual purpose.

No.14: Ocean

A great place to build bases and can give you good loot by raiding shipwrecks and ocean ruins.

No.13: Desert

It gives you useful resources like sand and cacti. Fossils are also found here!

No.12: River

Useful for being able to travel with boats and planting sugarcane. Also can be used as a natural moat.

No.11: Beach

A nice base spot to get easy access to the land and sea. Other than that, it gives you a nice view.

No.10: Dripstone Cave

Large amounts of dripstone can be found, as well as ores.

No.9: Dark Forest

Allows you to get loads of wood there!

No.8: Windswept Hills

A nice place to build your base is on the floating islands here.

No.7: Plains

Flat land perfect to build bases in. It contains everything you need to survive, such as trees, and a lot of necessities.

No.6: Lush Caves

Contains so much cool stuff (except maybe moss) and glow berries.

No.5: Flower Forest

Tons of different types of flowers just waiting to be picked up! Also a cool spot to build a base because you can see the flowers.

No.4: Ice Spikes

Ice Spikes look cool. But they also give you lots of ice and you can even mine into an ice spike and make it a tower easily.

No.3: Mesa

The Mesa, or badlands contains tons of terracotta for you to mine so you don’t have to make it. Also you can find lots of gold and mineshafts here

No.2: Savanna Plateau

A place with trees, villages, and horses. There’s also nice tall hills for building bases or just a nice view.

No.1: Jungle

You can find all sorts of crazy stuff like cocoa beans here and stuff like that.
