Large & Diverse Island Chains

Minecraft should have much larger and more interesting island systems. Instead of mostly finding small random islands, players could discover enormous island chains with multiple islands, different ecosystems, villages, structures, and wildlife.

Polynesian/Hawaiian-Inspired Islands

* Volcanic mountains

* Lush tropical forests

* Lagoons

* Coral reefs

* White-sand beaches

* Palm trees

* Tropical flowers

* Waterfalls

* Small islands scattered throughout a huge ocean

* Unique wildlife

Caribbean-Inspired Islands

* Tropical forests

* Beautiful beaches

* Palm trees

* Coral reefs

* Lagoons

* Bright tropical flowers

* Caves

* Coastal settlements

* Small islands connected by shallow water

Mediterranean-Inspired Islands

* Rocky cliffs

* Dry grass

* Olive trees

* Clear coastal waters

* Small islands separated by shallow seas

* Mediterranean vegetation

* Coastal villages

* Unique structures

Volcanic Islands

* Active and inactive volcanoes

* Lava flows

* Black-sand beaches

* Hot springs

* Volcanic caves

* New volcanic minerals

* Unique volcanic blocks

Madagascar-Inspired Islands

A Madagascar-inspired island could have:

* Lemurs

* Unique reptiles

* Unique birds

* Tropical forests

* Rocky landscapes

* Beaches

* Plants and wildlife found nowhere else

These islands would make ocean exploration much more exciting because finding an island chain could feel like discovering an entirely new region rather than just finding a small piece of land.
