The '''Beach Bowl Galaxy''' is one of the [[galaxy|galaxies]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. The galaxy is accessed from a dome called the [[Kitchen (Super Mario Galaxy)|Kitchen]]. The largest planet in this galaxy is a beach area filled with [[Penguin]]s. Its tropical setting is similar to many levels in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''.

Beach Bowl Galaxy is considered to be a "penguin paradise". This planet is shaped like a bowl (as the name of the galaxy implies). It is divided into 2 sides: the first, mostly underwater, has a few floating islands and some underwater ruins. The other side has a shallow pool in the middle ringed with grassy knolls. The dividing line between the 2 sides is a steep mountain with a waterfall falling out onto the first side. There is also an underground cave that opens up into the second side of the planet which shelters [[Swooper]]s and [[Goomba]]s. The planet is home to some penguin swimming school students and their teacher, as well as some sea life ([[Urchin]]s and [[Gringill]]s). In the back there is an area with a few [[Piranha Plant]]s, [[Wiggler]]s, and some Music Notes in the first Mission. There is also a Secret Underground Cave, reached by launching a [[Koopa Shell]] into a cracked wall.

[[File:Waterfall_Planet.PNG|200px|thumb|The Waterfall Planet.]]

This planet is reached when a treasure chest is opened on the far side of the starting planet (using a Koopa Shell) and using the [[Launch Star]] that appears. It is filled with numerous waterfalls that can be wall-jumped upon using an [[Ice Flower]]. There are 2 [[Cataquack]]s on this planet, which are used in order to obtain a [[? Coin]], which makes the previously stated Ice Flower appear. In an early image of the game, this planet can be seen in the [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]].

This planet is similar to the starting one, but with an icy design. It is reached when finding a Launch Star while wall-jumping of the waterfalls of the Waterfall planet. There is a giant body of water in the bowl filled with tiny icebergs. At the beginning of the planet, there is an [[Ice Flower]] encased in a crystal. It is used to transform into the [[Ice Mario|Ice form]], and skate across the water and reach the icebergs. There is also a Cataquack, which can be used to obtain [[Coin]]s, [[Star Bit]]s, and even a [[Power Star]].

[[File:Beach_BowlGbg2.jpg|200px|thumb|right|A portion of the galaxy known as the Cyclone Stone.]]

A rather unusual planet for this galaxy, reached when finding a Launch Star in the Secret Underground Cavern of the starting planet. The planet itself is a twisted stone path filled with [[Thwomp]]s and [[Tox Box]]es. In the center is a large path of rushing water, leading into a [[Black Hole]]. The end is graced with a [[Power Star]] encased in a crystal. When a [[Prankster Comet]] is in orbit, the enemies move twice as fast. In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Stone Cyclone Galaxy]] is the exact same planet, only that the enemies move four times as fast.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To enter the undersea cavern, the player needs to simply dive underwater, grab a Koopa Shell, and toss it at the breakable blocks in the wall that lines the ocean. Then the player has to swim through the tunnel to reach the land on the other side and the player needs to break the crates in the fence and the crates on the other side to reveal a Launch Star. The Launch Star will send the player flying to an area called the Cyclone Stone. The Cyclone Stone is a long stone path filled with [[Tox Box]]es and [[Thwomp]]s. The player must dodge all enemies to reach the end of the path, where the [[Power Star]] awaits. In a pre-release version of the game, this star was known as ''Keepers of the Sky Gauntlet''.

 

 

 

 

This [[Power Star]] is accessible when a [[Prankster Comet|Fast Foe Comet]] appears over the Beach Bowl Galaxy. The player begins this level on the Cyclone Stone encountered in ''The Secret Undersea Cavern''. He must reach the other end of the Cyclone Stone to gain the Power Star, as before, but this time the [[Thwomps]] and [[Tox Box]]es move much more quickly. Tox boxes move one space in an exact second.

*[[Thwomp]]s

 

 

 

 

This Power Star is accessible when a Purple Comet appears over the Beach Bowl Galaxy. The player must collect the hundred [[Purple Coin]]s scattered around the main planet. Only five of them are located in the sea; the rest are scattered around the landmasses. There is a [[Spring Mushroom]] located behind the waterfall that will aid in the collection of some Purple Coins. This Purple Coin mission has no time limit.

*This is the only [[galaxy]] where it is possible to get the three main [[Power Star]]s out of order. If the player gets the secret Star, Wall Jumping Up Waterfalls, during the second mission, upon reselecting the hidden Star, the third mission will play out even if the second star has not been collected. If the third Star is collected this way then its mission will not appear on the selection screen until the second Star has been collected as well. However, the third mission can still be played by selecting the hidden Star.

*The Cyclone Stone returns in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' as the sole planet in the [[Stone Cyclone Galaxy]]. The enemies here move even faster than the ones encountered during the Beach Bowl Galaxy's Fast Foe Comet mission.

*The [[Supermassive Galaxy#Stone Tube Planet|Stone Tube Planet]] in the [[Supermassive Galaxy]] bears a strong resemblance to [[#The Cyclone Stone|The Cyclone Stone]] in this galaxy.
