It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
Noki Bay is one of the areas of Isle Delfino, the main setting of the GameCube game Super Mario Sunshine. Noki Bay is located at the north behind the islands "dorsal fin". The Noki live here in the platforms floating in the bay. The structures have shells on them, possibly because the Nokis carry shells on their backs. Many small square pictures on the cliffs can be pushed in when sprayed, revealing a secret alcove. They are actually switches hiding several hidden tunnels and Blue Coins. The picture switches have six different designs on them, the blank ones making the total number of designs seven.
An old Noki fisherman and his grandson will help Mario throughout the levels, giving him a diving helmet and tips. Gooper Blooper makes a return here at one of the cliffs peaks. He blocks a hole to a room for the ancient Noki King's tomb. Several Noki shells are on the walls, as are two large jugs that hold a Blue Coin each.
Noki Bay is one of the most beautiful locations on the island, with crystal clear water and mysterious, old ruins. It is here that Eely Mouth's gingivitis has polluted the waters. The eel is in a huge underwater city that can be reached by a large waterfall. There, Mario can clean the Eel's mouth and collect red coins in the relaxing and peaceful surrounding of the underwater Noki City.
Mario must collect at least twenty Shine Sprites to enter this level.
Episodes
Episode 1: Uncork the Waterfall
The player starts out by landing on a platform amidst a purple, polluted Noki Bay. When Mario lands, the player should talk to an old Noki that is waiting on the platform. The old Noki will say that he has heard of Mario before and has a problem, at which point he will show the player an overview of the stage objective. The old Noki will then say that someone has corked the waterfall, which is what he believes to be the cause of the pollution. After talking to the Noki, the player should proceed to a shell-tower base with outcroppings that are used to climb to the first leg of the stage. After climbing these, there is a wicker basket with an adjacent cracked jar. The player should jump on the basket and fill the jar with water to ascend to the next platform. After jumping off the basket, the player should continue to the right until there is a gap. On the wall where the gap is, there will be some paintings that the player needs to spray off that makes two portions of the cliff appear one in front and one above- also, it helps to go to the very edge of the cliff to remove all of the paint. The player should then jump on the new platform and another platform, then spray a small painting on the wall that looks like a wave to make another outcropping appear. The player can then jump onto that outcropping and follow the next platforms up and over onto a section with paint all over it. On the wall will be another painting, which the player should then spray off to make a portion of the cliff appear. Continuing to the left, the player should use another basket-jar combo to jump over to the section that was just created. Then the player should jump over to the right and head up the ramp that leads up left and spray yet another painting off the wall. The player should use the new platform from the painting to wall-jump up to the next section. There is a pool of water to the left that can be used to fill up F.L.U.D.D.'s water tank, but is otherwise a dead end. The player should head over to the right and follow a couple of platforms, spray more paint off the wall, jump upwards from there and head over to the ledge on the left. There will be a trampoline, but it is too big to move so the player has to squirt it to make it small enough to pick up. Now that it can be picked up, the player should jump off the ledge with it and set it down in front of the other wall on the left and jump up with the trampoline. Jumping up a few platforms, the player can see the cork with a cannon on top similar to the one that is the portal to Pinna Park. Inside this cannon is Monty Mole, who the player has to defeat by Squirting bob-ombs to freeze them and throw the frozen bob-ombs at Monty Mole three times.
Episode 2: The Boss of Tricky Ruins
Gooper Blooper makes a return appearance here. Mario has to find his way into the ancient Noki King's tomb where the Shine Sprite is.
Episode 3: Red Coins in a Bottle
The Noki fisherman has figured out what's polluting the bay, but he makes Mario practice diving deep under the surface by telling him to collect eight Red Coins in a bottle full of water.
Episode 4: Eely-Mouth's Dentist
Mario dives to the bottom of the sea floor using the waterfall. There, a giant eel called Eely-Mouth needs its teeth to be cleaned. Once Mario cleans its teeth, its gold tooth becomes a Shine Sprite. Also, the water will no longer be polluted.
Episode 5: Il Piantissimo's Surf Swim
Mario needs to beat Il Piantissimo in a swimming race across the bay.
Episode 6: The Shell's Secret
Mario has to climb to the shell tower and enter the secret level to retrieve the Shine Sprite.
Episode 7: Hold It, Shadow Mario!
Another appearance of Shadow Mario. Mario needs to stop him.
Episode 8: The Red Coin Fish
Mario needs to dive down to the bottom of the sea to claim the Nokis' gift for him: a group of Coins and Red Coins swimming in the shape of a fish.
Official Profiles and Statistics
Steep cliffs and sea beds are what the Nokis call home. The huge waterfall and the 3 soaring towers resonate with mystic history.
Music
The theme heard in Noki Bay is performed by a wide variety of different flutes (such as the Western flute and panflute, among others). They are accompanied by harp, xylophones, and various other percussion instruments.
Names in Other Languages
Trivia
- Noki Bay's way of entrance (it is accessed by viewing the sun in Mario Cam mode while placing Mario inside a strip of light on Delfino Plaza) is probably a reference to the entrance to the Wing Cap switch level in Super Mario 64.
- It is possible to go to the other half of the main cliff Noki Bay is on, where the player can see many platforms.
- Unlike all the other parts of Isle Delfino, Noki Bay is not in a heat wave, as mentioned in the Tourist Guide.
- Noki Bay is the only location of Isle Delfino that can not be seen from at least one other location. However, Corona Mountain can be seen from the bay.
