Tidal Towns

Tidal Towns

Tidal Towns is a small mod that adds floating ocean villages to Minecraft. Instead of spawning on land, these settlements generate out on the open water, giving you a reason to actually sail the seas rather than skip past them.

Where they generate is the key detail: they appear in ocean biomes, so you will need a boat and some patience to find one. Once you do, the village is built to sit on the water's surface, with structures connected across the waves.

What you find inside is a village like any other, just adapted to life at sea. Expect the usual village fare — buildings, villagers going about their business, and the resources that come with a settlement — arranged in a floating layout rather than a landlocked one.

To make the most of them, treat a Tidal Towns village as a base of operations. It gives you a safe harbor, a trading post, and a landmark to navigate by while exploring the ocean. Finding one early makes long sea journeys far less lonely.
