Minecraft – Can mobs spawn in an ocean biome

minecraft-java-edition

Aside from the water everywhere, is there anything preventing mob spawns in Ocean Biomes, like there is for Mushroom biomes?

Best Answer

No, there isn't. Mushroom biomes are the only biome which actually prevent mob spawning. Sometimes in an ocean biome you will find mines or ravines that breach the ocean floor and spot mobs that have swam up from there. Any small islands will also produce mobs. Any structures you build there which aren't lit and aren't made of transparent blocks can also spawn mobs.
