The Beach Bowl Galaxy is one of the galaxies in Super Mario Galaxy. The galaxy is accessed from a dome called the Kitchen. The largest planet in this galaxy is a beach area filled with Penguins. Its tropical setting is similar to many levels in Super Mario Sunshine.
Enemies
Levels
Sunken Treasure
The swim students are distracted by "Sparklies" under the water. Mario needs to collect all of them. The resulting Launch Star blasts Mario to the upper part of the main planet. Ground Pound the red switch to activate some platforms, and quickly backflip and spin onto the platforms to reach the top of the planet. Ground Pound the red switch here to activate some walls that Mario can use to walljump to the Power Star.
Passing the Swim Test
Talk to the Penguin Coach, and he will tell Mario that the final swim test is today. To pass the swim test, he must obtain the golden Koopa Shell. The gold shell is currently in the possession of a fast-moving penguin underwater, so Mario must catch up to him and spin him to steal the shell away. Take the gold shell to the Penguin Coach to obtain the Power Star.
The Secret Undersea Cavern
To enter the undersea cavern, simply dive underwater, grab a Koopa Shell, and toss it at the breakable blocks in the wall that lines the ocean. Swim through the tunnel to reach the land on the other side, break the crates in the fence, and break the crates on the other side to reveal a Launch Star. The Launch Star will send Mario flying to an area called the Cyclone Stone. The Cyclone Stone is a long stone path filled with Tox Boxes and Thwomps. Mario must dodge all enemies to reach the end of the path, where the Power Star awaits.
Fast Foes on the Cyclone Stone
This Power Star is accessible when a Fast Foes Comet appears over the Beach Bowl Galaxy. Mario begins this level on the Cyclone Stone encountered in The Secret Undersea Cavern. He must reach the other end of the Cyclone Stone to gain the Power Star, as before, but this time the Thwomps and Tox Boxes move much more quickly.
Beachcombing for Purple Coins
This Power Star is accessible when a Purple Comet appears over the Beach Bowl Galaxy. Mario must collect the hundred Purple Coins scattered around the main planet. Only five of them are located in the sea; the rest are scattered around the landmasses. There is a Spring Mushroom located behind the waterfall that will aid in the collection of some Purple Coins. This Purple Coin mission has no time limit.
Wall Jumping Up Waterfalls
This hidden Power Star is accessible from The Secret Undersea Cavern. Grab a Koopa Shell and break the chest located to the right of the waterfall (when facing the main landmass), revealing a Launch Star. Mario will land on a planet with many waterfalls, a ? Coin floating high in the air, and a Cataquack. Lure the Cataquack under the ? Coin to collect it, which will make an Ice Flower appear. Ice Mario has the ability to wall jump up waterfalls, so do so to reach the upper platform, which consists mainly of a cold lake. The Power Star floats high above an isolated snowy island, and another small island contains a Cataquack. Mario must grab the Ice Flower, head to the Cataquack's island, and then create an icy bridge to allow the Cataquack to reach the island with the Power Star. The Cataquack will then launch Mario into the Power Star, completing the mission.
