	Stony shores replace normal [[Minecraft:beach]]es in areas of low erosion, often characterized by nearby hills or [[Minecraft:mountain]]s. Rarely, stony shores can generate completely landlocked. Because they can generate at any temperature, stony shores commonly border a wide range of biomes, from [[Minecraft:snowy plains]] and [[Minecraft:desert]]s to temperate [[Minecraft:forest]]s and [[Minecraft:plains]].

Nearby, the [[Minecraft:deep dark]] often generates underground due to the low erosion, and can sometimes stretch into regions directly below the stony shore. In areas of high humidity, [[Minecraft:lush caves]] may generate higher up, while [[Minecraft:ice caves]] are relatively common in cold climates.{{upcoming\|Fourth Drop 2026}}

	~~A stony shore replaces~~ normal ~~beaches in areas with mountainous terrain at low~~ [[Minecraft:~~Biome#Erosion\|erosion~~]] ~~values. This~~ often ~~(but not necessarily) occurs near~~ [[Minecraft:~~mountains~~]] ~~or plateau biomes~~. ~~Stony~~ shores can generate in any temperature ~~zone~~, ~~meaning that they create~~ a ~~high contrast with~~ snowy ~~or dry biomes~~.		Stony shores replace normal [[Minecraft:beach]]es in areas of low erosion, often characterized by nearby hills or [[Minecraft:mountain]]s. Rarely, stony shores can generate completely landlocked. Because they can generate at any temperature, stony shores commonly border a wide range of biomes, from [[Minecraft:snowy plains]] and [[Minecraft:desert]]s to temperate [[Minecraft:forest]]s and [[Minecraft:plains]].

	~~Because of their low erosion values~~, ~~stony shores generate close to~~ [[Minecraft:deep dark]]~~. Stony shores are not~~ to ~~be confused with~~ the ~~oceanic [[Minecraft:cliff]]s that generate at higher continentalness and weirdness~~.		Nearby, the [[Minecraft:deep dark]] often generates underground due to the low erosion.
