Pinna Park



Pinna Park is a large amusement park island off the coast of Isle Delfino. The island itself is known as Pinna Island. The park includes a merry-go-round, pirate ship, ferris wheel, rollercoaster and other rides. Pinna Park is also where Mario first meets Bowser Jr., the eighth child of Bowser, after defeating his Mecha Bowser. Also, he ends up battling Electrokoopas, Monty Mole, and Snooze-A-Koopas.

Outside the park is a beach full of Sunflowers and the starting point. Once Mario enters the park, he cannot leave, so check around the beach first. Various Fruit and dozens of Coins are hidden under the sand; just add water. To get to Pinna Park, Mario has to use a cannon found in Delfino Plaza.

The cannon to Pinna Park will not be fixed until ten Shine Sprites are collected.

 * Pinna Park is the most commonly seen place from other levels.
 * This level is the only place Mario can be seen without his hat on, which he takes damage from the heat, until he takes his cap back.
 * The population of Pinna Park is 75.
