You spawn at y=73 on a desert island about 256 blocks across, with water on every side. Forest, jungle and beach share the island, so wood is close, though the sand dominates. Warm ocean starts about 45 blocks out, and the nearest village is 575 blocks away across the water, so expect to build a boat early.
