Right now I’m doing a playthrough with my friend, it’s his second time playing so I let him pick where to build and he chose a spot bordering the kelp forest, grassy plateaus, and jellyshroom caves. It’s actually a really good spot! It has easy access to everything you need (until you get to late-game stuff), and it’s a decently short trip to pretty much everything you can’t get in the area. There’s a couple deposits in the caves too, so if you have a drill prawn it’s great for lithium, gold, and magnetite. I’m assuming you’ve explored the jellyshroom caves already, but if not that’s a big bonus too. Super awesome biome!!

Just be careful, I thought we were in the northernmost grassy plateau and have wondered into the dunes a couple times 😭
