Koopa Troopa Beach 2 (originally known as Koopa Beach 2) is the second course of the Special Cup in Super Mario Kart. It was subsequently reused in Mario Kart: Super Circuit as the first track of the Extra Special Cup, in Mario Kart DS as the first race of the Leaf Cup, and in Mario Kart Tour as the signature track of the Marine Tour. It is set on a large sandbank in the middle of a blue sea. Its obstacles are deep patches of water and bouncing Cheep Cheeps.

Course layout

Koopa Troopa racing at Koopa Beach 2 in Super Mario Kart.

The course is composed of a counterclockwise loop on and around one main island. It begins with a left turn and the first set of ? Panels. Racers then take another left turn and enter a section where they must drive through shallow water. In this section they must weave around Cheep Cheeps as well as areas of deep dark-blue water. On the right side of the section there is a small area of sand with a ? Panel on top. There is then a gradual left turn followed by a slight right turn and another gradual left turn, and racers reach the finish line soon after.

Mario Kart: Super Circuit

The course reappeared in Mario Kart: Super Circuit, and is the first track of the Extra Special Cup. It uses the background from Shy Guy Beach, including the pirate ship. The Cheep Cheeps were removed from the track. Since there is no Feather item in this game, the small ramp in the middle area is unreachable. However, the ramp was not removed despite this; the player can still see it over the wall.

Mario Kart DS

Koopa Beach 2 reappears again in Mario Kart DS as the first course of the Leaf Cup. Though it is slightly longer, it is still one of the shortest tracks in the game. The island which originally had one Item Box on it is now bigger and has three of them. The ramp inside the wall was removed. A bit of moss was removed near the finish line. It was never available in Wi-Fi play.

Missions

There is one mission that takes place on Koopa Beach 2:

  • Mission 5-3: The player controls Toad, who must hit 5 moving Item Boxes within 35 seconds. Each Item Box contains a Mushroom.

Mario Kart Tour

Koopa Beach 2 reappears once more in Mario Kart Tour, where it makes its debut in the Marine Tour. It has been renamed to "Koopa Troopa Beach 2" so that its name is consistent with N64 Koopa Troopa Beach.[citation needed] Unlike the previous versions, the Starting Grid is now located on the main road and several arrow signs on buoys were added. The course now has a starting banner with the classic Mario Kart logo. The walls within the course are now thinner. The island in the water portion is bigger, and that portion has two Item Box sets (one on the island, the other on the other side). The deep water patches are now offroad; they merely slow down racers, rather than sidelining them. The first and last Cheep Cheeps were removed, and the one in front the small island was moved to the other side. The fish themselves bounce higher and merely slow down racers instead of making them spin out. Some of the beach near the starting line is removed, and the part left over is now mossy, requiring two more turns to the finish line.

The course also appears as Koopa Troopa Beach 2R (reversed), Koopa Troopa Beach 2T (with ramps), and Koopa Troopa Beach 2R/T (reversed with ramps); the first two variants were introduced alongside the normal variant in the Marine Tour, while the last was introduced in the Sunshine Tour. The R/T variant, however, was present in one of the screenshots released for the 2021 Summer Tour, two years prior. In the R variant, a Glide Ramp has been added, allowing players to glide over the island with shallow water.

If the player falls into the deep, normally inaccessible water during the course's Glider Challenge, they will enter a brief underwater state before falling out of the screen. The Glider Challenge also features a boat designed like one of Sydney's famous ferries, which was used to tease the Sydney Sprint race course.

Like SNES Donut Plains 1, N64 Frappe Snowland, N64 Choco Mountain, and GCN Mushroom Bridge, it retains its original music, rather than using the Mario Kart DS arrangement.

SNES Koopa Troopa Beach 2 has the longest gap between reappearances of all classic courses, between the Samurai Tour and the Sunshine Tour (a gap of thirty-five tours). It is the first classic course to be absent for over a year.

    • Flag of the United States of America since July 4, 1960. For North American (and sometimes South American) release dates. Watch out for the deep pools of water and rough sand as you cruise through the Koopa Beach 2 track. This is a short course, so there's no time to lose!
    • Flag of the European Union (previously the European Economic Community). For European release dates. The colour of the water in Koopa Beach 2 tells you how deep it is. Stay in the lighter-coloured shallow water and avoid the dark patches, otherwise you'll be wishing they fitted your kart with a propeller. A school of jumping fish must be avoided too if you're going to stay dry.
