Yoshi's Tropical Island

"This is where the Yoshis live..., Watermelon Island and Cantaloupe Island. The Yoshi on the middle island is surrounded by whirlpools, and can't get off the island! That Yoshi's best friend is worried, and watches from the shore. Please, do something!"

- Koopa Troopa

Yoshi's Tropical Island is Yoshi's board in Mario Party. Consisting of Watermelon Island on the left, Cantalope Island on the right (both islands are shaped like two Yoshis), two adjoining bridges, and a small island in the middle, it was said that many Yoshis live here, but only two are shown on the board (three if a player has Yoshi as his or her character). A Pink Yoshi is on the small island for unknown reasons and is surrounded by whirlpools, while a Blue Yoshi is watching from Watermelon Island, unable to do anything about it. Players need to collect stars to get rid of the whirlpools and reunite the two Yoshis. The Happening Spaces makes Bubba the fish take Toad to the opposite island, and Bowser will come to where Toad was, selling defective Bowser Tubes to players for 30 coins. Two Thwomps block the bridges to the opposite island, and request a fee from players if they want to pass to the other island. The fee always started at 1 coin, but goes up by at least one coin each time (at payers' discretion) until it reaches the limit of 50 coins to pass.

At the end of the game, the winner's stars get rid of the whirlpools (unlike other boards, the individual stars do not merge into one big star on this board), and form a bridge for the Blue Yoshi to cross to meet his friend on the small island. The winner quickly comes to the island as well, and the players in second and third place, Toad, Koopa, Boo, a Thwomp, and the Star follow. The player in fourth place tries to join them, but gets taken away by Bubba.
