Well... I just found the most enormous cave! Dunno if anyone else has seen this too, but I left NE from my lifepod and when it got to the red grass plains, there was a little hidden cave system. I went in and saw those jelly mushroom things and thought that was it, then I found a hole in the side of that bottom area... and HOLY CRAP! It led to the most insanely huge underground cave I've seen so far in this game. There were about a million bone sharks there, stalactites, strange corals and plants...
The whole thing went on for ages, I couldn't even see the roof or the other walls. It was going deeper and deeper down to over 250m!
Eventually I found a small network of holes far on the other side, I started going up rapidly and eventually saw some light shafts. I followed them and got out much more quickly than I had got in.
Where I came out surprised me... instead of being NE of my lifepod, I was SW of it, by a long way! I Had literally gone underneath the WHOLE shallows area and out the other side, through this enormous cave o_O
Has anyone else see this?!
I'll definitely be building a base close to the entrance I found in the red grass and doing a lot more excavations here... there were rocks to smash all over the damn place
Here are a few snaps I shot while down there, and the position of the entrance I ended up coming back out from:

Btw ... did you find the cave with the diamonds?
The island is south south west from the game start.
I had found the massive tree but didn't know it was a cave underneath it so I eventually just left
Both are cool areas, the jelly shook caves used to be very tiny lol
