'''Bazza's Blockade''' is the eleventh [[level]] in the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] and [[Game Boy Advance]] game, ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. It is also the first area of [[Cotton-Top Cove]].

As this water level's name suggests, it is filled with many [[Bazza]]s, making their debut and only appearance in the original version of the game. These green barracuda enemies can be found all over the level, serving as the [[Kong]]s' main obstacle for the level. The foes travel out of small holes on the outside of areas, much like [[Swoopy|Swoopies]], and try to dive into both [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]]. Because of this, the apes have to be careful when they pass a school of Bazzas. [[Koco]]s also appear here, as do [[Lurchin]]s, though only in a [[Bonus Area]]. [[Enguarde the Swordfish|Enguarde]] is playable throughout the later half of this level as well, and he can be used to defeat the first [[Bounty Bass]] in the game.
==Level Layout==
The level begins with the Kongs swimming out if a cave and under a large section of coral to find a [[DK Barrel]]. They will also come up to some Bazzas, but the monkeys can simply swim under then to reach the next area, unless they want the letter K above them. After this point, the apes should travel around the twists and turns of the coral reef, passing a few Kocos on the way. A few Bazzas will swim towards them at some point, but they can be easily avoided. The monkeys will need to continue down the long pathway, until they meet another school of Bazzas. They should dodge them and move around the curve to meet two groups of Bazzas, following by four consecutive groups of Bazzas. They should avoid all six groups and continue through the level, dodging one more school of Bazzas before the letter O. Heading downwards, the monkeys will have to move through a large, U shaped pathway to find the [[Star Barrel]].

About halfway into the level, [[Dixie]] and [[Kiddy]] will need to swim a far distance upwards, dodging a few Bazzas. They will soon find a narrow passage to the right, infested by some Bazzas. They should try to get through and move past several more Bazzas while going south. The heroes will eventually meet some Bazzas to swim over, as well as another pathway heading to the north. On this thin pathway, they will avoid some more Bazzas and find another narrow passage. They should head through the passage to the right and continue down the pathway, avoiding many undersea enemies. The Kongs will eventually pass four groups of Bazzas before find another DK Barrel. Farther on, they will enter a wide pathway with a few more schools of Bazzas. They should dodge them all and hover to the right to pass the [[No Animal Sign|No Enguarde sign]], which will cause Enguarde to disappear if he was guided to this point. After this, the apes should travel into a small cave. Inside, they will find a flagpole. Raising its flag will end the level.
==Secrets==
===K-O-N-G Letters===
*K: The K floats above the first school of Bazzas.
*O: The letter O is shortly before the Star Barrel in an area containing a few Kocos.
*N: The Kongs can find the letter N near an Animal Barrel, which is found not too far from the second Bonus Barrel.
*G: The Kongs earn the letter G if they manage to lead Enguarde to the No Animal Sign at the end of the level.
===Bonus Levels===
*Not too long after the letter K, the apes can find a school of Bazzas swimming across the top of a large alcove. They should swim below them to find a Bonus Barrel, which, upon being entered, leads them into a [[Bonus Level]]. There, the heroes need to swim through a narrow passage, dodging several Bazzas and a Lurchin on the way. If they manage to reach the end of the area before the time limit of 15 seconds runs out, they can find a [[Bonus Coin]] to collect within the remaining time.
*Shortly after passing the level's Star Barrel, the heroes can find a narrow passage to their left and right. The path to the left leads to a wider area with a Bonus Barrel, which sends the heroes to a Bonus Barrel when entered. There, they need to turn into Enguarde and defeat several Kocos swimming out of small holes. Once all the Kocos are defeated within 30 seconds, a Bonus Coin appears the to top of the area. After exiting this bonus, the player is able to play as Enguarde until he passes the No Enguarde sign.
===DK Coin===
*At the end of the level, the Kongs can find the [[Koin]] to the right of the flagpole. He is in possession of the [[DK Coin]], but will not give it up without a fight. To get the coin, the Kongs need to defeat him with the nearby [[Steel Keg]]. This can be done by throwing the keg at the nearest wall when the Koin is facing away from it, thus keeping the enemy from deflecting it with its shield. Once it is defeated, they can collect the coin.

-'''Bazza's Blockade''' is the eleventh [[level]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and the first level of [[Cotton Top Cove]]. In this level, an indefinite number of [[Bazza]]s swim in and out of the holes in the coral reef. [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] must exercise timing to swim by them. To the left of the letter N, the [[Kong]]s can optionally transform into [[Enguarde]] from its [[Animal Barrel]], or by entering the second Bonus Level.

-At the beginning of the level, the Kongs swim out of a cave and down towards a [[DK Barrel]] and a school of Bazzas traveling across a wide area. The [[KONG Letters|letter K]] is in the uppermost part of this area. Soon, the apes travel north past a Koco and to another group of Bazzas that swim over two [[Banana Bunch]]es. They can find more Kocos in their path as they travel through a thin, curvy passage. Eventually, the path leads them south towards some more groups of Bazzas. The second group swims over a small alcove that contains a [[Bonus Barrel]]. There are more schools of Bazzas as the Kongs continue up the path to the north. This time, each row of Bazzas is close together. Soon, the primates find a slightly wider path leading east, with one row of Bazzas swimming across it. After they dodge these barracuda enemies, they encounter some Kocos and the letter O. A thin, U-shaped passage follows here, and a [[Star Barrel]] is at the bottom of it.
-Bazzas also swim across this curved pathway. Once the Kongs pass the foes, they continue up to a DK Barrel and more rows of Bazzas, some of which that are close together. A much thinner path leading to the east is at the top of this area, and Bazzas travel through it. If the Kongs survive this potion of the level, they head south through an area containing a few more schools of Bazzas. An additional school is ahead, just before a pathway to the north that leads past two more rows of Bazzas and to another thin passage. Another group of Bazzas swims through the thin passage, which can lead the Kongs to the left or right. If they head left, they can find a wider area with a Bonus Barrel, but if they travel right, they can progress farther into the level, where there is another wide area that contains a few Kocos, the letter N, and an Animal Barrel containing Enguarde.

-If the apes swim east from here, they reach a pathway leading downwards. The pathway consists of four more Bazza schools and a DK Barrel. Farther ahead of here, the Kongs can find some Bazzas that swim through their path. If they are dodged, the Kongs access a wide area that holds a single Bounty Bass, who Enguarde can defeat to earn a [[bear coin]]. After the apes pass more Bazzas as they head to the south, they pass a [[No Animal Sign]]. If they pass the sign with Enguarde, the [[Animal Friend]] disappears and they are given the letter G. The entrance to a cave is nearby. Inside the cave, they can find the [[Level Flag]] and a [[Koin]].

-At the end of the level, the Kongs enter a cave area. The [[Koin]] is on a platform to the right of the Level Flag. Dixie or Kiddy must pick up a [[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]] behind the Koin, stand on its shield, and throw it at the right wall. The Steel Barrel bounces off the wall and hits Koin in the side, defeating him and rewarding the [[DK Coin]] to the Kongs.

In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs have 15 seconds to swim through a narrow passage and avoid several Bazzas and a Lurchin along the way. The [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong franchise)|Bonus Coin]] is located at the end of the path.
-*'''''Bash the Baddies!''''': Shortly after the Star Barrel, the Kongs can find a narrow passage to their left and right.
