This [[level]] is made of concrete and mesh platforms above a huge lake of [[lava]], sharing [[Lethal Lava Land]]'s background of a vast lava ocean with a fiery sky. Several [[Bully|Bullies]] and [[Goomba]]s guard these platforms and the route to Bowser's arena. This level is located in the basement of the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]]. The level is unlocked by completing [[Board Bowser's Sub]] in [[Dire, Dire Docks]], and its own completion unlocks the Mushroom Castle's second floor. | | [[File:SM64DS-Bowser In The Fire Sea Map.gif|frame|left|Map of '''Bowser in the Fire Sea''' in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''.]] |

| | '''Bowser in the Fire Sea''' is a [[Bowser]] level in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. The Fire Sea is made up of concrete and mesh platforms above a huge lake of [[lava]]. Several [[Bully|Bullies]] and [[Goomba]]s guard these platforms and the route to Bowser's arena. |

| The entrance to Bowser in the Fire Sea is found in the same room as the entrance to Dire, Dire Docks, which requires 30 [[Power Star]]s to enter. Before the player obtains the first Power Star from Dire, Dire Docks, the blue portal to the water level is in front of the entrance to Bowser in the Fire Sea. Once the first Power Star of Dire, Dire Docks is obtained, the blue portal moves to the back of the room, allowing access to Bowser in the Fire Sea. | | The entrance to Bowser in the Fire Sea is found in the same room of [[Princess Peach's Castle]] as the entrance to [[Dire, Dire Docks]], which in itself requires thirty [[Power Stars]] to enter. Before obtaining the first Power Star from Dire, Dire Docks, the blue portal to the water level will be in front of the entrance to Bowser in the Fire Sea. Once the first Power Star of Dire, Dire Docks is obtained, the blue portal will move to the back of the room, allowing access to Bowser in the Fire Sea. One [[Power Star]] can be found in the [[Nintendo 64]] version of the game, while two can be found in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake. |

| ==Layout==
| | The way to defeat Bowser is the same as in [[Bowser in the Dark World]]. Unlike the first fight with Bowser, he will move faster, making it more difficult for [[Mario]] to grab his tail. Bowser will also no longer shoot his fiery breath; instead, he will spit up to three fire balls, which can burn Mario. However, when Bowser gets thrown off the edge by Mario and touches land again or when Mario first meets him, the platform will start to tilt, then will slow down, and will go back to normal. Bowser can also warp to a different part of the platform to attack Mario. When Mario is too far away from Bowser, Bowser will charge at the hero. However, he will stop if he gets too close to the edge of the platform; this in return can leave Bowser vulnerable long enough for Mario to grab his tail. Upon defeating Bowser, Mario will receive the key to the castle's upper floors. |

| |
| The player starts on a small platform with a metal platform near it. Stepping onto the metal platform causes it to move. At certain points, the platform dives under the lava, so the player needs to [[jump]] to nearby tilting platforms in order to avoid taking damage. After the moving platform's stopping point is a series of blue platforms that constantly go under the lava, then resurface. Beyond those is a Bully followed by three Goombas situated around a [[Spinning Heart]]. A rising pole, circled by an [[Amp]], helps the player reach the tilting platforms above. To the right of the platforms is an area with a [[! Block|yellow block]] containing three [[coin]]s, and the pole to the left at the end of the platforms leads to a cage with an elevator that brings the player up to the next level.
| |
| | |
| The second level first contains a moving platform that goes through a [[flamethrower]], which leads to a sloping mound. After the slope is a [[Chain-Link|hanging grate]] the player can use to climb to the other side of the lava pool. Beyond that are two moving platforms, followed by a couple of Bullies and a tall set of moving interconnected platforms that lead the player to the next level.
| |
| | |
| The final level starts with a stone slope containing a [[flame thrower (Flame Chomp)|flame thrower]], a [[Bob-omb]], and a yellow block. After the stone slope is a row of sinking and rising platforms that are protected by flamethrowers and Amps. Beyond those is a stone structure containing rising and falling poles. Finally, a falling bridge leads to the warp that sends the player to the Bowser fight.

| |
| The tactic to defeat Bowser is the same as that for the fight in [[Bowser in the Dark World]], though he has some additional moves. Bowser immediately starts the battle by jumping up and landing, causing the stage to tilt toward him. The same happens if the player throws Bowser off the stage but misses a [[Mine|spiked orb]], making Bowser land and cause the stage to tilt. Unlike in his previous battle, he [[Bowser's Flame|spits single balls of fire]] as opposed to a continuous stream. Bowser can also warp to a different spot if the player is close and charge at the player if they are far away. The player can [[somersault]] or [[dive]] to dodge Bowser's charging attack. If he runs into the edge of the platform, he falters, giving the player an opportunity to grab his tail. Throwing Bowser into a spiked orb defeats him, granting the player the [[Key#Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS|Big Key]] to the castle's upper floors.

| | ==Levels== |
| | ===Star 1=== |
| | [[File:Bowser in the Fire Sea SM64.png|thumb|200px|Bowser seen in ''Super Mario 64'' in Bowser in the Fire Sea.]] |
| | [[image:Bowsers_uvula_exposed.jpg|150px|left|thumb|Mario vs. Bowser in ''Super Mario 64 DS''.]] |
| | As with [[Bowser in the Dark World]], there are eight [[Red Coin]]s to be collected. The Power Star will appear atop a wall shortly before the [[Warp Zone]] that leads to Bowser himself; [[Wall Jump]]ing is required to reach it. |
|
| |
|
| ==Missions== | | ===Star 2 (''DS'' only)=== |
| Two Power Stars can be collected in this course, with one being exclusive to the DS version of the game.
| | Near where Star 1 will appear is a [[Star Switch]]. Upon pressing it, the Power Star will appear on the far side of a lava pool that the player must quickly backtrack across in order to reach it before it disappears. |
| | |
| ===Power Star for 8 Red Coins===
| |
| Like in Bowser in the Dark World, there are eight [[Red Coin]]s to be collected, during the mission Power Star for 8 Red Coins.<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario 64'' Player's Guide|page=81|date=1996|author=Pelland, Scott and Dan Owsen|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> These are the locations of the Red Coins:
| |
| *Floating above a central hole in a square metal floor with regular coins, found at the end of the metal floor path before the first Spinning Heart
| |
| *Floating above a side of the first tilting platform after the pole circled by an Amp
| |
| *Floating above in a corner of the cage with the elevator
| |
| *Floating below the elevator in the cage. The player must get on the elevator, quickly get off it, and then fall down the hole to get this coin.
| |
| *Floating above the octagonal floor with a Bully on it at the end of the narrow path next to the top of the sloping mound
| |
| *Floating above the third moving interconnected purple platform, indicated by a small shadow. The player must wait for the platforms to rise enough to get this coin.
| |
| *Right next to the last flamethrower in the area with sinking and rising platforms on the third level
| |
| *Floating above the last sinking and rising pole before the falling bridge leading to Bowser
| |
| | |
| After the player collects all eight Red Coins, the Power Star appears atop a wall shortly before the warp that leads to Bowser. The player must [[Wall Jump|wall-kick]], [[Triple Jump|triple-jump]], or use [[Luigi]]'s [[Backward Somersault]] to reach it.
| |
| | |
| ===Switch Star (''DS'' only)===
| |
| Near the first Star is a [[Star Switch]]. Upon the player pressing the switch, the Power Star appears on the far side of a lava pool that the player must quickly backtrack across in order to reach it before it disappears. If playing as Luigi, the player can backward-somersault over the lava to the Star. | |
