Ocean Clouds
From One Piece Encyclopedia
The Ocean Clouds (海雲, Umigumo) are oceans made entirely of clouds. It can be traveled through using a ship a Waver or Jet Ski. They are lighter than water, and as such, things that drop into it sink faster than in normal water. However, they are still considered to be a ocean, and as such, can affect Devil Fruit users like a regular body of water would.

[edit] The White Sea
The White Sea (白海, Haku Kai) is the lowest part of Skypiea, located 7000 meters above the blue sea, comprised of Ocean Clouds. It is the base for everything on Skypiea. It also has strange, rubbery clouds that bounce objects off of them and can be used as trampolines for those who are creative. Amazon, the gate-keeper resides down here with her Vision Dial-powered camera, collecting entrance immigration fees, and immigration for those who are leaving. She is generally unable to understand the events around her, as she lets people in without collecting fees, but not warning them they will become criminals. When everyone was evacuating Angel Island, she attempted to take images of them all, not realizing that Angel Island was about to be destroyed. Many outsiders become criminals for not paying the fee, because Amazon fails to explain Extol, the currency of Skypiea.
