The '''Beach''' is the second world of ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. Like the other areas of [[Donkey Kong Island|Donkey Kong island]], it is infested by the [[Tiki Tak Tribe]], who have taken [[Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong's]] [[Banana Hoard]]. As its name suggests, the world has a beach theme, with many of its levels taking place around water or on ships. It also features some new mechanics that are not seen in the first world, [[Jungle (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Jungle]], such as bomb-shooting ships. New enemies are also in this world, such as crabs and electric jellyfish. Additionally, [[Squiddicus]], a giant octopus, appears as a major enemy in this world. The earlier levels of this world have calm weather but some of the later levels have very stormy, windy weather.

When asked if they were the same location, senior designer Kynan Pearson approved of the idea.<ref>KynanPearson (August 12, 2021).

==Appearance==
[[File:DKCR Beach Icon.png|thumb|Beach icon.]]
From the world map, the Beach appears to be a bay hosting several small islands on it, each one being a level. The world map shows [[Cranky's Shop]] and the boss level appearing on a patch of grass.
The earlier levels take place in a calm, peaceful atmosphere featuring a few clouds. A few patches of grass and palm trees appear in parts of the level. Many of the levels have small rocks sticking out from the water. Contrarily, a few of the later levels have dark clouds, strong waves, and a high tides. One of the levels takes place in mild, cloudy weather while another features numerous ships firing cannonballs directly at the [[Kong]]s.
Shipwrecks tend to appear in the level in a level, which can either assist him or impede his progress. Oftentimes [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] can only cross over the water by jumping from pieces of wrecked ships.
