Nether ↔ Overworld Coordinate Converter

Convert Minecraft X and Z coordinates between the Nether and the Overworld with the 8:1 portal ratio.

Use this Nether and Overworld coordinate converter to quickly find where a Minecraft portal should land in each dimension. The tool follows the standard portal rule: moving from the Overworld to the Nether divides X and Z by 8, while moving from the Nether to the Overworld multiplies X and Z by 8.

It is useful for linking portals, planning Nether highways, shortening long trips and reducing the chance of portal mislinks between bases, farms and major landmarks. Enter the source X and Z coordinates and choose the conversion direction.

The result shows both the exact converted coordinates and a rounded whole-block suggestion for portal placement. Y is not converted automatically because height, terrain and safe portal placement depend on your world, version and build location.

Use X and Z for portal linking. Then pick Y manually based on terrain, safe height and your target portal build.
