First appearance Super Mario 3D Land (2011)
Latest appearance Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (2018)

The "Underwater Theme,"[1] also known as the "Beach Theme,"[2] is a recurring musical theme introduced in Super Mario 3D Land that is played in beach levels. The theme is dynamic: when the player is above water, the normal variation with full instrumentation plays, and when the player is submerged in water, a simpler, more subdued variation plays.

Arrangements

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS features an arrangement of the "Underwater Theme" in the "Super Mario 3D Land / Beach Theme" medley track, which plays on the 3D Land stage. This arrangement returns in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, where it plays on the Delfino Plaza stage, and in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, now titled '"Ground Theme / Underwater Theme - Super Mario 3D Land", where it can be played on any Super Smash Bros.-series or Super Mario-series stage.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

In Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and its port, an arrangement of the "Underwater Theme" plays in Briny Bowl Swimming Hole and Floaty Fun Water Park. Like in Super Mario 3D Land, the theme has two distinct variations for when the player is above or below water.
