How to get Kelp in Survival Mode

You can add kelp to your inventory in Survival mode by finding kelp and gathering it. So, let's get started!

1. Find a Kelp Plant

First, you need to find a kelp plant growing underwater in the Ocean biome. So, look for a large water source with kelp and seagrass growing.

2. Break the Kelp Plant

The game control to break the kelp plant depends on the version of Minecraft:

  • For Java Edition (PC/Mac), left click and hold on the kelp plant.
  • For Pocket Edition (PE), you tap and hold on the kelp plant.
  • For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press and hold the RT button on the Xbox controller.
  • For PS3 and PS4, press and hold the R2 button on the PS controller.
  • For Wii U, press and hold the ZR button on the gamepad.
  • For Nintendo Switch, press and hold the ZR button on the controller.
  • For Windows 10 Edition, left click and hold on the kelp plant.
  • For Education Edition, left click and hold on the kelp plant.

Part of the kelp plant will break and a smaller kelp will appear. Because you are in the water, the kelp might float right up to you.

3. Pick up the Kelp

Make sure you pick up the kelp before it disappears.

Once you pick up the kelp, it will appear in your hotbar.
