Top 30 Best Survival Island Seeds in Minecraft

Monumental Mushroom Islands

• Seed: 8328710652683844623
• Spawn: 28, 56
• Biomes: Lukewarm Ocean, Mushroom Fields, Savanna

The humble Mushroom Island is one of the safest biomes to live on. In the ocean near Spawn, you’ll find four larger Mushroom Islands and several tiny ones.

However, the abundance of Mushroom Islands doesn’t mean this ocean is completely safe! It is actually filled with over a dozen Ocean Monuments each with their own set of Guardians and Elder Guardians. To make it even more special, Java players will find a Woodland Mansion on a small island northwest of the first Mushroom Island.
