The Sea Strider Nest is a naturally spawning object exclusive to Don't Starve Together and introduced in the Waterlogged beta. It is the home of Sea Striders, and can be found in Waterlogged biome.

Sea Striders will emerge from the nest at Dusk by climbing down from above in a manner similar to Dangling Depth Dwellers. During the daytime any Sea Striders that are not engaged with an enemy or pursuing food will return to their nest of origin and despawn. 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.

The max amount of Sea Striders a Nest can have could be 2 or 3. It takes about 2 minutes for a Nest to respawn a new Sea Strider.

The Nest has 200 health and can be destroyed with weapons. Once a nest is destroyed, the Great Tree Trunk it was hanging on will spawn a new nest after 3 to 5 days. But a Great Tree Trunk can only regrow one nest at a time, so if another nest is destroyed when there is already a nest in regrowth, it will be destroyed permanently. If a nest catches on fire and burns down, the Great Tree Trunk will not regrow a new nest.
