The world of Disney Dreamlight Valley is filled with multiple biomes that can be discovered (but at a price). Each one costs a certain amount of Dreamlight, meaning players won’t have the luxury to search every biome at their leisure. Luckily, there is one biome that can be unlocked in the early game that provides Sand.

How To Farm Sand In Disney Dreamlight Valley
Sand can be farmed by digging the shore at Dazzle Beach in Disney Dreamlight Valley using the Shovel. After traveling through the magical Well to the beach, pick any random spot and start digging. Keep repeating the same process until Sand comes out.
To make the process easier, hanging out with a companion that has a digging bonus will certainly double the amount of Sand. Another great method to farm Sand is by destroying the small blue rocks on Dazzle Beach. Each one drops three Sand. But bear in mind that these rocks can only be destroyed by a Pickaxe +1.
As for the amount, it depends on players’ luck, since it is possible that over one Sand pops out. Furthermore, the time spent farming this material varies, as sometimes 20 Sand can be collected in five minutes, and at other times the same amount can be gathered in 10 minutes.
The other materials in Disney Dreamlight Valley that can be looted from digging around in Dazzle Beach are Star Coins, Pebbles, Clams, and Escalope.
How To Use Sand In Disney Dreamlight Valley
Sand is mainly used to craft Glass at a Crafting Table prior to a character’s request. For example, the second Friendship Quest for Ursula needs an Empty Vial and Purple Pigment, which can be done by using Glass; thus, Sand is essential for this process. The recipe for Glass calls for five Sand and one Coal Ore.
Other than Glass, players can also craft items from the Furniture section like the Zen Garden and all types of Beach Torches to decorate their personal space. As for the Fence and Paving section, it’s possible to create new tiles for the house in Disney Dreamlight Valley like Natural Rock Path and Asphalt. The former requires Sand and Pebbles, whereas the latter needs Sand, Pebbles, and Coal Ore.
How To Unlock Dazzle Beach In Disney Dreamlight Valley
Dazzle Beach is right beneath the Peaceful Meadows, and it only costs 1,000 Dreamlight to unlock it. Considering other biomes’ price varies from 4,000 to 10,000 Dreamlight, Dazzle Beach is extremely affordable. Unlike biomes like Frosted Heights, which require opening the Forest of Valor, it can be accessed early on.
Completing a couple of daily tasks will easily reward players with the needed amount of Dreamlight. Another of Dazzle Beach’s amazing advantages is that new characters will be unlocked like Ursula and Ariel, and also, new Friendship Quests will become available.
Disney Dreamlight Valley is available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
