Isle Delfino
Template:Location-infobox Isle Delfino is an island shaped like a dolphin where Piantas, Nokis, Yoshis and Tanookis live. Mario, Peach, Toadsworth and some Toads take a trip to this island in Super Mario Sunshine.
However during the game, the island is full of graffiti made by Shadow Mario who the people think is Mario. Mario, with the help of the water pack F.L.U.D.D, is forced to get rid of all the paint on the island.
Other Appearances
Isle Delfino appeared again in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. The award ceremony was held there, and the Peach Beach course also took place on its shores.
