Gwarhar Lagoon is a rocky, tropical resort area in the southeastern part of the Beanbean Kingdom. It is inhabited by blue seal-like creatures and humanoid jellyfish. Gwarhar Lagoon appears in only Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its Nintendo 3DS version.

During gameplay, Mario and Luigi travel to Gwarhar Lagoon to find a piece of the Beanstar, which is on the top of Hermie III's shell, and the Bros. must battle him for it. Spangle becomes the Beanstar's replacement. The Jellyfish Sisters run their Relaxation Room in Gwarhar Lagoon and teach Mario and Luigi two new hand techniques: the Dash and the Tickle. If the brothers travel to the north end of the first area of the beach, they will find Warp Pipe #8, or #10 in the Nintendo 3DS version.

Red Pearl Bean	Beneath the Relaxation Room, at the end of the northeast path in the opened shell.

Beanholes

Every Beanhole contains one Chuckle Bean.

Location	Image	Image (Remake)
From the yellow pipe entrance to the Seabed, the player should head east one screen and north another screen to the area where Pipe #8 is. The beanhole is located in the southwestern corner.
In the area just outside the entrance to the Jellyfish Sisters' Relaxation Room, Mario should hammer Luigi into the green seashell/the spot to uncover a bean.
Going east on the main path, though the first underwater area and past the two sets of rollers, in the next area the player should work their way southwest to see the beanhole at the corner.
Going south into the next area, the player should Spin Jump against the Spin Block to make it move east, against a narrow platform. The player should then High Jump up to the Spin Block, then on the platform and Spin Jump across to the larger platform in the northwest, where the beanhole is.
Going west two screens from the Stone Bridge, the beanhole is found in a corner in the northern area, next to the palm tree.
In the second underwater area, the player should go north one screen all the way to the vent. The player should Spin Jump on the vent to reach the platform on the west, then head all the way south down the narrow path to find the beanhole at the end. Then, the player should swim east to the lone platform with a cross pattern/a spot. Performing Luigi Dunk in the mark southeast of the cross/the spot will uncover a bean.
Going northwest from the same area, the player should swim through the path of coral reefs and then northeast to find a group of tiny rocks in a diamond-shaped formation/a spot. Hammering Luigi in the center of these rocks/the spot will uncover a bean.
From the Stone Bridge, the player should head west one screen and south in the next. In the next area, the player should then walk under the bridge until they find a beanhole just after the second overpass. Then, on the bridge, the player should head east until they see a group of three small rocks/a spot. Hammering Luigi into the center rock/the spot will uncover a bean.
From the same area, the player should head east one screen and continue moving south until they see a Save Album with the beanhole directly east of its shadow.
Going west into the South Beach, the player will find a group of three starfish/two starfishes with a spot between them. Hammering Luigi into the green one in the center/the spot will uncover a bean.
In the same area, the player should climb up the steps in the south, head west on the bridge and Spin Jump north to the ledge on the other side. After going north and east across the small bridge, the beanhole can be found southeast of it near the southern ledge.
From the Stone Bridge, the player should head north past the stone bridge, then west in the area where Hermie III is, then continue moving west until they find a Boo Statue. Past the statue going further west is the beanhole at the shore.
