The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the article should be moved to its appropriate title.

The Waterfall is a secret level, accessible only from the southwest island in Delfino Plaza, in the game Super Mario Sunshine. The access via pipe is blocked by a forcefield. In this secret area, Mario must cross through the poisonous river, collecting the Red Coins. If Mario were to land in the water, he will instantly lose a life. However, the lilly pad that Mario is on will also disappear over time, making this quite a challenging level.

If Mario reaches the end of the area, but fails to get all eight Red Coins, he can walk on the sides to get back to the starting point. But because those paths are quite narrow, the player needs to move cautiously to avoid falling into either the poisonous water, or the bottomless gap.

There's also a pipe that takes Mario back to Delfino Plaza. However, because of this, the player should only use it if a red coin was missed.
