A Watermelon Block is a large Watermelon shaped like a cube, and is one of many kinds of Blocks found throughout Super Mario Sunshine, along with Brick Blocks and Sand Cubes. They are green with dark stripes on the outside and red on the inside; they likely derive their appearance from Japanese watermelons, some of which are grown cubed.
