Surf Cabana
- “Hey, do you see the jumbo juicer on top of this hut? That's how we make our special juice smoothies.”
- —Pianta, Super Mario Sunshine
The Surf Cabana, also referred to as the Watermelon Shack,[1] is a small seaside bar located on the west side of Gelato Beach in Super Mario Sunshine. It is built over the water parallel to the shoreline, with a small yellow zigzag dock leading the way up to it from the shore. It features two tables with chairs and umbrellas behind the main hut, as well as a circular counter with fresh coconut smoothies and a large juicer, which is accessed via the roof and will damage Mario if he touches it. The juicer leads to a glass container inside the hut, which has a Shine Sprite trapped inside. Though the Surf Cabana appears in every episode of Gelato Beach, it has an integral role only in Episode 8, where Mario must carefully roll the largest watermelon found on the beach to the Surf Cabana. Once the watermelon reaches the hut's entrance, it is juiced to make smoothies, and the trapped Shine Sprite is released. Additionally, a blue coin can be released from the juicer if Mario drops any other type of fruit into it.
