All three types can be found in [[Delfino Plaza]], whereas most other courses feature at least two types. [[Pinna Park]] and [[Sirena Beach]] are the only two areas in the game that do not contain nozzle boxes.

[[Mario]] can open the box and equip the nozzle simply by [[jump]]ing on the box. FLUDD can have only two nozzles equipped at a time, but one of them must be the standard Squirt Nozzle. This means that if Mario wants to change nozzles, the Hover Nozzle is replaced. Within a course, Blue Boxes are accessible from the start, but most of the Red Boxes and Gray Boxes appear as holograms at first. Mario must find and open the one Red or Gray Box in the course that is solid (and that is usually located in a hard-to-reach place) to make all the other nozzle boxes of the same color solid. Whenever Mario switches nozzles via a nozzle box, his water supply is automatically refilled. Throughout [[Isle Delfino]], there are 10 Hover Nozzle boxes, 12 Rocket Nozzle boxes, and 11 Turbo Nozzle boxes.

*If Mario gets on and off Yoshi, FLUDD refills and its second nozzle switches to the Hover Nozzle.
