| | Whoregasm |
| A '''beach''' is a small section of [[sand]] and [[Black Sand|black sand]] adjacent to standing [[water]], such as an [[ocean]].
| |
| | |
| Although any sand on the surface of the [[world]] can be considered [[desert]], a proper beach exists because the sand was generated as part of placing the water when the world was [[Getting Started#World Creation|initialized]]. This appears to take the shape of a large, rounded intrusion of sand into the previously existing [[dirt]] and [[stone]] which is then partially replaced by the slightly smaller body of water, leaving a border of sand. One common characteristic of a beach is underlying dirt.

| | |
| [[Golden Chest|Golden chests]] can commonly be found under beaches near the underlying bedrock.
| |
| | |
| If the water is shallow enough, a deep bed of sand can underlie it. Otherwise, the water can run past the sand and onto stone and dirt below.
| |
| | |
| Beaches are not technically [[biome]]s as they don't have characteristic [[:Category:Plant|plants]] or [[:Category:Creature|animals]] and can occur in any [[climate]], but the presence of sand and water allows for some common findings.

| ==Fauna==
| |
| *[[Fish (creature)|Fish]] spawned near kelp
| |
| *[[Scorpion]]s spawned near cacti
