Water Park
Water Park is the second race track in the Mushroom Cup of Mario Kart 8. This course takes place in an amusement park/museum area with submarines that patrol the track and balloons that float out of pipes. Nokis, Toads, and several yachts fill the area as well.
Description
Water Park appears to be a flooded amusement park that was coincidentally water themed. Flooded hotels and roller coasters can be seen in the background, but the natives seem to have adapted to the park's flooded state. There are yachts and boats visible in the background and the park seems to still be in operation although certain rides are no longer usable since being completely submerged, such as the Aqua Cups ride.
Course layout
The course starts at the entrance to a ride known as the Sub Coaster. After going through the entrance building, the course splits into two jumps leading into a short underwater section. It isn't long before it turns to a large anti gravity loop. On this loop, as well as before it, characters can hit the submarines and get a boost because they have tires on the bottom of them. After the large loop, the track once again goes underwater leading to a curve around a carousel ride. Shortly after the turn is a gliding ramp leading to another ride called the Wario Wheel as well as the finish line behind it.
Shortcuts
Players can use a Mushroom to boost across the carousel ride instead of taking the turn around it.
