*Before [[Minecraft:1.18]], regular and deep frozen oceans could generate near any kind of biome. It was somewhat common to see an [[Minecraft:iceberg]] bordering a [[Minecraft:desert]], [[Minecraft:savanna]] or [[Minecraft:badlands]] in ''[[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition]]''. Until 1.18, frozen oceans had a rough regular ocean border to minimize this effect in ''[[Minecraft:Java Edition]]''.

Template:Infobox biome

The deep frozen ocean is a deep variant of the Minecraft:frozen ocean. Unlike the regular frozen ocean, the water surface is not covered with ice, though icebergs still generate in the water.

Generation

Deep frozen oceans replace Minecraft:deep oceans in the frozen temperature zones, next to frozen oceans and Minecraft:mushroom fields. They are twice as deep as regular frozen oceans, and may border Minecraft:deep cold oceans near higher temperatures.

Description

Like any other deep ocean, Minecraft:ocean monuments generate here. Minecraft:Icebergs generate like in normal frozen oceans, but unlike the normal frozen ocean, the water's surface is not frozen. The ocean floor consists of one layer of Minecraft:gravel,Template:Only followed by Minecraft:stone and variants without any vegetation, and few aquatic mobs spawn. Rare islands are also stony but may have some Minecraft:grass blocks with vegetation.

Similar to frozen oceans, deep frozen oceans have a temperature gradient. However, this is much warmer; at the cold areas it allows Minecraft:snowfall above Y=120±8, while at warm areas it Minecraft:rains everywhere. Due to the unfrozen water, Minecraft:polar bears, Minecraft:strays, and Minecraft:rabbitsTemplate:Only are much rarer, but may still spawn.

With Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals, deep frozen oceans use default environmental settings with a strong cold color grading, making the biome appear colder blue. They use cold sunlight, which is slightly brighter at dusk and dawn.
