[[Image:Peachbeachwii.jpg|thumb|left|'''Peach Beach''' in ''Mario Kart Wii''.]]
The race course starts out at a cobbled street that looks like [[Delfino Plaza]]. Near the starting line there is a bill board with Peach on it. She is holding a parasol and has her hair tied back. There is also a bill board with [[Toad]] on it. When entering the beach in a [[Ricco Harbor]]-like area, the [[Daisy Cruiser]] can be seen in the background. In the harbor, another cruise ship can be seen. It is stated in the official guide for ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', that this large cruise ship in the harbor (the ''Sunshine'') belongs to Peach. Also the [[Pianta]] Statue fountain is replaced by a huge [[Power Star]] in LAN Versus mode. While racing on the beach, wandering [[Cataquack]]s (from ''Super Mario Sunshine'') of four different colors will charge at the racer if he or she goes near them. The final stretch takes place on a path similar to those at [[Bianco Hills]], and if the player turns left into the square where the fountain is right before the finish line, they will find Item Boxes before a sharp turn back to the course. The award ceremony at the end of every cup is taken place here.
 
It is updated graphically in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', with added details such as seagulls flying in the sky. [[Hammer Bros.]], [[Toads]], [[Goombas]], and [[Shy Guys]] can be seen on the deck of ''The Sunshine'' cheering, and there are more umbrellas over the spectators on land. The biggest diference is that the pipe with the double items in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' is not present in ''Mario Kart Wii''.

The race course starts out at a cobbled street that looks like Delfino Plaza. Near the starting line there is a bill board with Peach on it. She is holding a parasol and has her hair tied back. There is also a bill board with Toad on it. When entering the beach in a Ricco Harbor-like area, the Daisy Cruiser can be seen in the background. In the harbor, another cruise ship can be seen. It is stated in the official guide for Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, that this large cruise ship in the harbor (the Sunshine) belongs to Peach. Also the Pianta Statue fountain is replaced by a huge Power Star in LAN Versus mode. While racing on the beach, wandering Cataquacks (from Super Mario Sunshine) of four different colors will charge at the racer if he or she goes near them. The final stretch takes place on a path similar to those at Bianco Hills, and if the player turns left into the square where the fountain is right before the finish line, they will find Item Boxes before a sharp turn back to the course. The award ceremony at the end of every cup is taken place here.

It is updated graphically in Mario Kart Wii, with added details such as seagulls flying in the sky. Hammer Bros., Toads, Goombas, and Shy Guys can be seen on the deck of The Sunshine cheering, and there are more umbrellas over the spectators on land. The biggest diference is that the pipe with the double items in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! is not present in Mario Kart Wii.
