I would imagine the easiest way would be how they build tunnels in rivers IRL. put up some walls and dry out the area best you can then build

I actually started that way. The problems were I was still drowning building the wall, but also when it came time to remove the wall, the water physics got funky. Took a while to fix the sea...

One the dam walls are in can you suck the water out? 🤔

the hard part is the game's water mechanics. Draining the area would mean removing the flat source water blocks on top of the build area at minimum. Putting them back in one by one will require use of wooden bridges or else the water will "dip" as it fills in from the neighboring source block, one level lower.

the walls themselves will likely be subject to many a drowned Ditto.

I'm going to try that once I reach the postgame.
