The Blood Kelp Caves are the cave systems of the Blood Kelp Zones. These caves are characterized by large Bloodroots that grow on walls and ceilings, carrying large pustules of Blood Oil on their thick stems. The caves also feature many decorative bioluminescent flora and cavern formations (stalagmites and stalactites). Small Bloodvine stems also grow abundantly in the area with their bioluminescent roots always on display.
