“Accessed through a secret passageway at the bottom of the lake, this place remained hidden for many years. Only recently did those clumsy Kremlings stumble across the entrance.”

—Donkey Kong Country 3 instruction booklet, page 21

Pacifica is the seventh world exclusively appearing in the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3. It is a water-themed world like Cotton Top Cove, and is located in the northwestern lake of the Northern Kremisphere, only reachable by using the Turbo Ski. The world boss is Barbos, who was originally fought at Razor Ridge. According to the instruction manual, the entrance to Pacifica is located underneath a lake, although the area itself is not entirely flooded. Pacifica itself consists mainly of two lakes. The southern one is the only location of green Lurchins. The northern lake takes place during a thunderstorm. Two water-filled pipelines appear in Pacifica, serving as habitats to many aquatic creatures. One of the levels features large trees submerged into the northern lake, which the Kongs must swim through. The Brothers Bear here is Barnacle, relocated from Lake Orangatanga in the original version, and he appears in his own washed-up ship. Pacfica's secret cave, titled "Whirlpool Wreck", is located directly north of the boss area.

Unlike other worlds in Donkey Kong Country 3, Pacifica has six normal levels instead of five, plus a boss level:

• Dingy Drain-Pipe
• Stormy Seas
• Sunken Spruce
• Cliffside Blast
• Ripcurl Reef
• Surf's Up
• Boss level: Barbos's Barrier
