The Kongs begin the level in a dark area with a trail of bananas and a Flotsam in it. If they head east from here, they can find an alcove that contains a Banana Bunch and a hidden passage that leads them to a pair of light-giving barrels, some bananas, a few Flotsams, and a [[Bonus Barrel]]. A small area containing the letter K branches off of this passage. If the primates travel west from the level's beginning, rather than east, they come up to a light-bearing barrel and an arrow pointing downwards that is formed by a group of bananas. If they follow this arrow, they come down to a passage leading to the west, which contains a DK Barrel, a pair of Flotsams, a Lockjaw, and other obstacles. An [[Animal Barrel]] containing Enguarde the Swordfish sits below the Lockjaw in this area, who is followed by a light-giving barrel that the heroes must touch to illuminate the area. A passage is to the north of the barrel, and it contains an arrow pointing upwards that is formed by bananas. The passage allows the heroes to take a shortcut through the level, as if they continue west from the previous light-giving barrel, they make their way through a longer path towards a Shuri, a Flotsam, and another passage that leads to the north.

If they follow this arrow, they head through a passage that leads them towards a Flotsam, a light-giving barrel, and then farther downwards into a lower area that holds a Puftup and another barrel that can remove the surrounding darkness for a limited amount of time. The barrel is followed by a Flotsam, an arrow formed by bananas pointing to the north, a DK Barrel, and another Lockjaw. The arrow points to a wall, but a passage is below it that leads into a wide room that holds a Lockjaw and a Banana Bunch, which is located in the bottom-right corner of the area. To the right of the arrow, the primates can find a passage leading to the north with a light-giving barrel at the beginning of it. If they continue past this barrel, they come up to a Flotsam and another arrow pointing to the north that is formed by bananas. There are two separate passages above here; the one of the right is void of obstacles, but the one of the left contains a few Puftups. As Diddy and Dixie continue farther north, they come up to a small channel between the two passages. A light-bearing barrel and the level's Star Barrel are ahead of here at another meeting point between the two passages. The Kongs can find a small channel immediately before the Star Barrel that leads them to the letter N and acts as a shortcut through the level.

An arrow made of bananas pointing to the west is next to the level's Star Barrel, and if it is followed, the heroes come up to a few Flotsams and a small alcove that contains a banana. The Kongs can find a passage below this banana that contains another Animal Barrel, which contains Enguarde. If they enter it in their usual forms, they turn into the swordfish, but if Enguarde himself enters it, he is simply given a second life in case he is attacked by an enemy. An area is to the right of the Animal Barrel with a Lockjaw, a Banana Bunch, and the letter N in it. The duo can also find a passage to the left of here that holds a few Flotsams and some bananas located in small alcoves. The passage leads to a wider area with a light-bearing barrel and a Lockjaw in it. At the top of this area, they can find an alcove that holds a DK Barrel, and to the left of here, they can find a thin passage that consists of a small alcove with a Banana Bunch and a light-giving barrel in it. After the heroes pass this barrel, they enter a more open area that contains a trio of Puftups that float upwards. In the bottom of this area under these puffer-fish-like foes, there is a small area that contains a Lockjaw, a few bananas, and the letter G.

*At the beginning of the level, the Kongs must travel backwards and not follow the trail of bananas in front of them. As they swim east, they come up to a few Flotsams, two light-giving barrels, and eventually, a Bonus Barrel, which sends them to a Bonus Level when entered. Here, the Kongs need to collect 40 stars that are scattered around an underwater area. If they collect all of the stars within 25 seconds, a Kremkoin appears at the beginning of the stage (due to them traveling in a circle during the bonus) to grab before the remaining time runs out.

*Immediately after the heroes pass the final No Animal Sign in the level, they must feel around the crates to the right of them. They are able to swim through a row of three crates, which are followed by a long, thin passage that leads to a vast area consisting of a few Puftups and a Flotsam. At the top of the area above the surface of the water, a Bonus Barrel can be found that is able to send the heroes into a Bonus Level, where they must make way through an underwater maze. The Bonus Level sometimes becomes pitch black, so it is up to the Kongs to make sure they hit the many light-giving barrels around the area. If they reach the end of the maze within 20 seconds, they can find a Kremkoin to grab within the remaining time.
