How to use the Desert Well Finder

Desert wells are tiny sandstone features in deserts with a 1/1000 chance per chunk. Since 1.20 the sand at the bottom contains suspicious sand with the Arms Up pottery sherd and other rewards.

  1. Type or paste your seed in the seed box (numbers and text seeds both work), then pick your edition and version.
  2. Desert wells are marked on the map automatically. Drag to pan, scroll or pinch to zoom, and hover an icon to see its coordinates.
  3. Click an icon to copy the coordinates or a ready-made /tp command, and tick "Completed" to keep track of the ones you have visited.
  4. Use the "Nearest" list in the sidebar to jump straight to the closest ones to spawn or to any X/Z you enter.

Questions

Why are desert wells marked approximate?

Wells are placed by a random check per chunk that also depends on the terrain surface, so a small share of marked chunks have no well.

What can I find in a desert well?

Brush the suspicious sand under the water for pottery sherds (Arms Up, Brewer), emeralds, bricks or a suspicious stew.
