A giant cave, filled with a huge airbubble that is constantly regenerated by a huge amount of Purple Brain Coral, possibly a slightly different variant of the coral. It would be filled with amfibious creatures, similar to turtles or dolphins that can swim, but still need to breathe. Possibly some creatures that eat the coral. The low risk of drowning would be balanced out by lack of recources, creatures that attack when you get too close, and possibly a hard to reach area. It could be located inside of a cave, the entrance of wich probably starting in the Grand Reef and moving to under the Safe Shallows, or the entrance being inside the Safe Shallows AND the Grand Reef, the entrance in the Safe Shallows explaining the presence of the Bubble Brain Coral. I would like to see something like this under an outer area of the dunes. That way, there can be bubbles that rise through the sand from below. Reapers above the caves can make it hard to reach. The Dunes would actually be a better location, since it's further away and deeper then the Safe Shallows. I think that reapers guarding everything would make it a little bit too common, but another Leviathan would make it a more unique place. I think that for flora, there should be moss on the walls and ceiling of the cave, and some flowers on little pieces of land sticking out of the water. I think that the surface of the water would either be calm and crystal blue or green (from algea) Another thing that would good would be some decorational colored crystals, or colorful flowers. I personally think the reapers above it would be fine. They're only found in 3 biomes of the entire game, including the dunes, so I feel like it would make sense.

Perhaps they could use crystals as a way to refract light. That way there's a source of sunlight for plants. I'd probably prefer for this biome to be at ~300m (the usual dune depth) so as to avoid serious teraphorming by the devs.
