'''Deep Sea Sprint''' is the first area of the Pear Kingdom. The entire level takes place underwater, however, it is a relatively short level. Donkey Kong has to race three turtles to the finish line here. The level features a few obstacles, such as the heavy water currents, which can speed the ape up if he travels in their direction. [[Jellyfish]] also appear in this level as obstacles, however, they can only hurt the ape and never help him. After eating the giant pear at the end of the level, Donkey Kong heads to the next level, Clock Tower.

Although winning the race is not necessary to complete the level, it can give the Kong more beats. In the race, third place gives the Kong 100 bonus beats, second place awards him with 300 bonus beats, and first gives the primate 500 beats. However, last place does not give the ape any beats at all.

The level begins on a platform just off the shore of the water. In the shallow areas of the water, three turtles wait behind a line of bubbles rushing to the surface of the ocean. When Donkey Kong moves near the bubbles, the race begins, and the turtles race him to the finish line. On the way through the race area, there is a wide room with a few large platforms around its center. A strong current is at the bottom of this area. This room is followed by a wide pathway. On the first turn in this pathway, a current can be found to the left of the area. If Donkey Kong continues from here, he begins to head southward past many jellyfish enemies. The path soon curves to the west and becomes more narrow. More jellyfish foes line the outside of the passage to attack the ape.

After heading south again and passing some blue, underwater plants, a fork in the road can be found. While the path to the right gives the ape no bananas, the path to the north leads to a Helper Monkey, who can throw the Kong to many Banana Bunches. A pathway leading downwards is at the meeting point of the two passages, and a current can be found to the right of a large piece of land. The current can push the ape under this platform and over another to a straight pathway leading downwards. A few small passages are on the sides of this pathway, and small currents are inside of them. At the bottom of this pathway is the finish line, which appears as a thin, white line. Another current is located after the finish line to push the ape around a small turn and to a giant pear dangling on a tree branch above the water's surface. Once he bites into the fruit, the level ends.

(New Play Control! version)
Helibird Dash is the first area of the Pear Kingdom in the New Play Control! version. The level takes place inside a giant hollow vine. Helibird Dash is a relatively short level and conceptually very similar to Chopperbird Race. Donkey Kong has to race four Helibirds to the finish line with his own Helibird, and the number of beats earned by the end depends on Donkey Kong's performance in the race. The level features no enemies and few obstacles, and the ape must simply move his Helibird through the narrow pathways quickly.

Two different kinds of Jungle Buddies appear in this level: Helibirds and Flurl. The two buddies can help the ape progress to the giant pear at the end of the level.
