The Pretty Beaches Mod improves Minecraft's coastline experience by introducing realistic sand and water behavior, which makes shorelines appear and feel more natural. When digging near water, sand now collapses and shifts dynamically, simulating real-world erosion and wet sand physics. This small but powerful mod is ideal for both builders and survival players who want a more immersive and realistic beach environment. Whether you're terraforming or simply walking along the coast, Pretty Beaches adds the subtle realism that vanilla Minecraft lacks.

Redefine Coastal Beauty with Realistic Sand and Water Flow!

Pretty Beaches Mod for Minecraft Fabric and Forge versions available, changes water physics while excavating sand near water to avoid unpleasant looks of flowing water. 

This means you can go dig up the sand you want without worrying about destroying the environment. This mod generates water for free, making it unsuitable for situations where water is limited.

• When sand is broken near water, rather than becoming flowing water as it would in Vanilla, it becomes a source block, even if the usual limitless water criteria are not met. This allows you to dig sand near water without worrying about being pushed around or leaving an unsightly mess.
• Furthermore, it can fill multiple holes at once (though it can only travel three blocks), assuming you didn't start digging near water at first.

This mod alters water physics while excavating sand near water to eliminate the illusion of flowing water. This means you can go dig up the sand you want without worrying about destroying the environment.

It should be noted that this mod generates water for free, making it unsuitable for situations where water is to be limited.

• Instead of water flowing, a complete source block is formed when sand cracks close to water.
• Dig sand close to the water without worrying about getting carried away by the flood or leaving an ugly place in your wake. When excavating, floods can reach holes up to three blocks away.
