'''Keelhaul Key''' is the main area in which Chapter 5 of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' takes place. Similar to [[Lavalava Island]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Keelhaul is a southern island disconnected from all kind of society of the outside world. During the events of ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Mario learns that the next location of a [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] is in the southern island of Keelhaul Key. Mario will soon find himself captain of a whole crew, which consists of [[Flavio]], [[Pa-Patch]], [[Lord Crump|Four-Eyes]] (Lord Crump in disguise), two [[Toad (species)|Toads]] and some [[Bob-omb]]s. While on the trip to Keelhaul Key, the ship, the [[S.S. Flavion]], is attacked by [[Ember]]s and finally sinks.

Luckily for Mario, the ocean washes the whole crew up to Keelhaul Key itself. With no way back to Rogueport, Mario will now have to face the dangers of the jungle in order to save his lost crew mates and find a way into [[Pirate's Grotto]], in which the [[Sapphire Star]] lies. With the help of Flavio's [[Skull Gem]], Mario makes it inside. At the end of Chapter 5, Mario faces off against [[Lord Crump]] in his ship at the shore of Keelhaul Key. After completing the Chapter, the player may return to the southern island on [[Cortez]]'s Ship, [[Black Skull]], whenever they want. Cortez's Ship will be in [[Rogueport]] at all times. There is also a pipe in [[Rogueport Underground]] which Mario can take to Keelhaul Key.

Keelhaul Key is the only place in which Mario can find [[Keel Mango]]s, used for a variety of recipes. Additionally, in Keelhaul Key, Mario's last required party member, [[Admiral Bobbery]], joins him. Mario can also find several badges and items on the island. After the island goes back to normal activity, Pa-Patch, the two Toads who run the shop and inn, and a few of the Bob-ombs will stay on Keelhaul Key and run a settlement. [[Don Pianta]]'s daughter, [[Francesca]], and his son-in-law, [[Frankie]], also decide to stay in Keelhaul Key. Creatures in Keelhaul Key include [[Ember]]s, [[Flower Fuzzy|Flower Fuzzies]], [[Green Fuzzy|Green Fuzzies]] and [[Putrid Piranha]]s.

|In the same area, is another ? block containing a Thunder Rage at the top of the area. Slightly south of this block is the hidden one. To hit it, Mario must walk to the edge and spin his Hammer to reveal it. Alternatively, he can use [[Bobbery]] to reveal it. Another option is for Mario to get to the center yellow block and using the Spring Jump from the [[Ultra Boots]] to spring straight up to reveal the hidden ? Block. In the Nintendo Switch remake, a fourth option is to use the hammer facing the screen at this spot. The location of this block is mentioned in Wonky's Tales, "Southern Isle Secret".<ref>{{cite|author=Wonky|quote=Far to the south of Rogueport lies an isle, and on this isle there are three yellow blocks in a row. And if you do a Spring Jump on the second of these blocks from the bottom... I hear you'll get something good for your health.

**"''This is a shantytown built by Pa-Patch and some of the other sailors who came with us. Blue ocean, sandy beaches... A shop, an inn... You could live pretty comfily here. You'd always have to worry about harmful UV rays, though, y'know?''"

==Trivia==
<br clear=all>
*The adventure Mario has on Keelhaul Key is very similar to the one he has on [[Lavalava Island]] in the first ''Paper Mario''. Both are for the fifth collectible (Star Spirits and Crystal Stars, respectively), and both are underground on a tropical isle. In both, Mario goes with a famous explorer on a treasure hunt, and [[Lava Bubble]]s, [[Buzzy Beetle|Buzzies]], [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]], and [[Putrid Piranha]]s are also present in both. Both places can be later accessed by pipe in the sewers. The player also gains the ability to swim on both, by using [[Sushie]] on Lavalava Isle, and Boat Mode in the Pirate's Grotto. Both end successfully, as [[Kolorado]] gets his Volcano Vase treasure and Flavio remarks in his diary that he got whatever the player used to convince him to sail them to Keelhaul Key (romance, thrills, or emotion).
{{PM Locations}}
*Keelhaul Key is mentioned in [[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: New Horizons|''Animal Crossing: New Horizons'']] by Captain Gullivarrr, in dialogue added to the July 3, 2020 update. If the player finds Gullivarrr, he may say, "Folks be fearin' me buccaneerin' from [[Crocodile Isle]] to Keelhaul Key..."
