	Snowy beaches replace ~~[[Minecraft:beach]]es~~ in the coldest temperature zones, where they ~~may~~ border [[Minecraft:snowy plains]], [[Minecraft:~~ice spikes~~]], [[Minecraft:~~snowy taiga~~]]s, and regular [[Minecraft:taiga]]s. ~~[[Minecraft:Frozen river]]s can cut through snowy~~ beaches~~, and icebergs~~ from the [[Minecraft:frozen ocean]] ~~begin generating close to~~ the ~~land~~.		Snowy beaches replace beaches in the coldest temperature zones, where they frequently border [[Minecraft:snowy plains]], [[Minecraft:snowy taiga]]s, [[Minecraft:ice spikes]], and regular [[Minecraft:taiga]]s. Snowy beaches usually separate land from the [[Minecraft:frozen ocean]] biome, though they can occasionally generate completely landlocked. Terrain is generally flat and smooth, but can generate as wide, rugged, or even mountainous depending on the surrounding terrain.

	~~Not every~~ snowy ~~biome is separated from the frozen ocean~~ by ~~a snowy beach. Near~~ [[Minecraft:~~mountains~~]], [[Minecraft:~~stony shore~~]]~~s often replace~~ snowy beaches~~, even though they are not as cold~~.		In areas of low erosion, snowy beaches are replaced by [[Minecraft:stony shore]]s. Warmer regions generate as regular beaches instead. Sometimes, land biomes can directly border frozen oceans without any snowy beach, occasionally featuring tall cliffs.

			[[Minecraft:Ice caves]]{{upcoming\|Fourth Drop 2026}} are common below snowy beaches.

The temperature in snowy beaches is low enough to allow [[Minecraft:snowfall]], covering the sand in [[Minecraft:snow]] and freezing the water around.

	With [[Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals]], snowy beaches use default atmospherics with a strong cold color grading, making the biome appear icy blue. They use cold sunlight, which is slightly brighter at dusk and dawn.
