When [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Toadsworth]] landed here, [[Toad Express|the plane]] almost crashed since [[Graffiti|Goop]] was in the middle of the airstrip. When Toadsworth asked Mario to gather information about the situation, he instead found [[F.L.U.D.D.]], who proved to be valuable in getting rid of the Goop. Peach also sees [[Shadow Mario]] at the airstrip. Mario and F.L.U.D.D. then started squirting the Goop until all that was left was the center, which could not be cleaned away as easily. Out came a huge Polluted Piranha, which Mario had to defeat by squirting into its open mouth three times with F.L.U.D.D. When the plant was beaten, all the Goop cleared away, the center platform rose, and out came a [[Shine Sprite]].
 
It wasn't until Mario defeated [[Bowser]] and [[Bowser Jr.]] that he would have come back to the Airstrip. There he would collect [[Red Coin]]s and earn another Shine Sprite. Also, when he came back to the Airstrip it was inhabited with [[Strollin' Stu]]s. Alternatively, it is possible for Mario to visit the Airstrip before defeating Bowser - the player simply has to enter [[Corona Mountain]] and leave again, and the boat to the Airstrip will be available. To get on the boat, a [[Pianta]] will ask the player to pay him ten [[Coin]]s, or else he can not ride on the boat to the Airstrip.

History

Super Mario Sunshine

Delfino Airstrip Dilemma

Mario battles against a Gatekeeper at the Delfino Airstrip.
Mario fighting a Polluted Piranha.
The Goop encountered at the airstrip.

The plane Mario, Princess Peach, Toadsworth, and the Toads were flying in comes to a screeching halt once it arrives at the airstrip. Leaving the plane, the characters find goop in the shape of Mario's face. Toadsworth will tell Mario to find some assistance as Peach notices Shadow Mario nearby. Finding F.L.U.D.D. on the opposite end of the airstrip, the player has to defeat the Polluted Piranha in the center by spraying it when its mouth is open. Spraying it three times will defeat it, revealing the Shine Sprite and returning the airstrip to normal. Afterwards, Mario will be taken to a trial, with the Piantas blaming Mario for vandalizing their island.

This is the only Shine Sprite in the game that cannot be recollected.

After opening up Corona Mountain and paying a Pianta in Delfino Plaza ten coins to return to the airstrip, the player can do a Red Coin challenge. By Ground Pounding a Red Coin Switch and using the Turbo Nozzle, the player has to collect the eight Red Coins both on and around the airstrip. Collecting them all within the time limit will reward the player with the Shine Sprite.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Delfino Airstrip only makes a small cameo in Super Smash Bros. Brawl in the background of the Delfino Plaza stage. The airstrip's model seems to be largely simplified from its appearance in Super Mario Sunshine, in that it simply looks like a floating block in the ocean.

Nozzle locations

Nozzle Boxes appear during Mario's second visit. The Rocket Nozzle does not appear anywhere on the airstrip, although if desired, the player is able to take any nozzle from Delfino Plaza to the Airstrip, allowing them to use the Rocket Nozzle there.

Turbo Nozzle

  • On the northwest edge of the airstrip. Right of the Hover Nozzle.

Trivia

  • After completing the game and going back to the airstrip, the Guide Book will display Mario's location as being in Delfino Plaza. The airstrip is considered a submap of the plaza because its 100 Coin Shine is also the same as the 100 Coin Shine for Delfino Plaza.
  • The music heard the first time the player is in the airstrip is a remix of the original 'Underground BGM' music from Super Mario Bros.. When the player returns to the airstrip, the Delfino Plaza music plays instead.
