==Gameplay==
The goal of the mini-game is to swim through as many bubble rings as possible.
The object of the minigame is to swim through as many [[Bubble ring|ring]]s as possible. The minigame is seen from a rearview perspective. The rings appear as the four players swim through the course. Each ring is worth one [[point]]. Sometimes, a [[Manta]] swims by and drops two or three gold rings worth three points each. Hitting a [[Blooper]] deducts one point, hitting [[Sushi]] deducts two points, and hitting the orange eel at the end deducts three points. Any player with the most points wins. However, if all players have the same number of points, the minigame ends in a draw.

The players swim through a goal at the end, and the scene changes to show them above the water. The losers stay in the water while the winner jumps onto [[Toad]]'s boat and does a winning pose. If more than one player wins, they will stay in the water and wave. If a draw occurs, Toad will instead drive away, leaving all four players stranded in the water.
