The Sea Strider is a mob exclusive to Don't Starve Together and introduced in the Waterlogged beta.

Sea Striders are capable of moving on the surface of the Ocean, and can jump to and from Boats or dry land.

At Dusk Sea Striders will emerge from their Sea Strider Nests by descending from the canopy above. Sea Striders will also emerge to investigate when a nearby Mossy Vine is picked or the Great Tree Trunk the nest is connected to is rammed by a boat. They will climb back to their nest during daytime if they are not in fight or investigation.

Like every other variety of Spider Sea Striders will seek out and consume any type of Meat left on the ground, including any Ocean Fish in the water. They will come out from their nest to eat fish that are swimming too close to the nest.

Webber can use any Meats to befriend with Sea Strider, and use Strider Switcherdoodle to turn other type of spiders into Sea Striders. Webber also can pick up spider to inventory.
