Davy Bones is a large, skeletal eel and the third boss of DK: King of Swing. It is the boss of Aqua World, and is located in its own small lair, Davy Bones' Locker. Both its name and boss level are derived from the old sea legend of Davy Jones' Locker.

Davy Bones attempts to attack Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong by lunging out at them from one of the gaps in the wall. If the Kong is hit by Davy Bones, they lose a heart of their health, but if they perform a charge attack into Davy Bones, they temporarily knock out Davy Bones. While Davy Bones is knocked out, Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong must grab an orange peg at the tip of its tail and swing it at the spiked walls. The cycle continues until Davy Bones's health bar runs out, thus defeating it.
