A shipwreck is a structure found in oceanic biomes that resembles a sunken sailing ship.

Generation

Shipwrecks generate in all oceans commonly. On rarer occasions, they generate above sea level nearby the water, in beaches, snowy beaches, or inside an iceberg,^[1] ocean ruins, ocean monument, or canyon.

Structure

Shipwrecks generate in one of three ways: upright, keeled sideways, or upside-down. In many cases, they are missing their bow (front) or stern (rear), mast or multiple other blocks, giving them a damaged appearance; however, it is also possible, but rare, to find them completely intact. They consist solely of wooden materials, including logs‌^{[JE only]}/stripped logs‌^{[BE only]}, planks, fences, slabs, stairs, trapdoors, a door (if the ship is upright), and up to 3 chests, depending on rotation and intact sections of the ship. The bow is supposed to generate one chest (unless upside-down) while the stern should generate 2, and the whole ship generates a maximum of 3 chests, regardless of the ship's rotation or condition. However, there are some instances in which chests that usually generate in a shipwreck section are missing. Only two wood types are used per ship (one is the primary type, which is used by the logs and exterior, and the other the secondary type), but only 8‌^{[JE only]} combinations are possible: Primary dark oak with secondary jungle and spruce, primary jungle with secondary spruce, primary oak with secondary birch and spruce, primary spruce with secondary dark oak, jungle, and oak. Acacia is also another possible secondary type‌^{[Bedrock Edition only]}.

Loot

Internal structure of a whole shipwreck.

Shipwrecks contain up to 3 loot chests, depending on the sections still intact. Supply chests generate in the bow of the ships, treasure chests generate in the upper section of the stern, and map chests in the lower section. In the case of certain shipwrecks, especially those that intersect other structures, the chests that would normally be present in the corresponding section may be absent, resulting in some shipwrecks holding no chests at all. Although chests don't usually generate for missing sections, map chests from shipwreck sterns may generate in upside-down bows even if the stern is missing. Furthermore, each shipwreck with at least 2 chests always contains its map chest.

Supply chests

In Java Edition and Bedrock Edition, each shipwreck supply chest contains items drawn from 2 pools, with the following distribution:
