Shimmering Sea is the third race in the Sapphire Cup in Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast. It is the second Seaside course, the first is Salty Sea.

Layout[edit]

The race starts out on a sandy path next to the water. This path has banana bunches and Steel Kegs. Players must continue on this path until they take a slight right turn, at which point they are hovering over the water. On this part of the path, there are a lot of barrels that players must dodge. Eventually, they will exit the water path and enter a grassy path that is full of bananas that can be collected. There are also a few balloons and barrels. After this path finishes, a sandy path appears again. There are some barrels that create a miniature wall with a small opening in the middle. When players proceed, they will run into Steel Kegs and regular Barrels that create another miniature wall. Once they leave the sandy path, players enter a water path that leads them underwater. This area has bananas, Chomps, and both regular and iron barrels. Then, a path of bananas and barrels leads them up to the surface. Players can also choose to take a Barrel Cannon to get to the surface. Then, they will land on a path with bananas and barrels. This path will eventually lead them to the finish line.
