Shallows biome

Oceans are often deep, and sort of just drop down after beaches. My suggestion is add a shallows biome that has a 50% chance to generate between beaches and lukewarm/warm oceans. There would be reef types, and seagrass types, and turtles could spawn there.

    Seems like an interesting concept, perhaps nautilus shells could also be found in the sand in the shallows if you use a brush (the brush itself was announced with archeology in the caves and cliffs update for those wondering.)

    I think that this is a great idea as it could add a lot of color and variation to minecraft. It could be like the beaches off of like figi or something with clear water and lots of vibrant wildlife. There could also be a unique sand block that can shift around over time and reveal some type of loot very rarely.

    I like it. When the palm trees arrive, they can go here.
