Under the Ocean

Under the Ocean ( Bottom of the sea) is the 3rd world in Super Monkey Ball 2, Super Monkey Ball Deluxe and Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania.
==Description==
This world takes place deep inside an underwater trench off the coast of Jungle Island. Main points of interest are a sunken galleon ship, a giant resident fish and the local flowers. These flowers are shaped like chandeliers on the ground and lamps on the walls which light up the area. Light from the surface gets refracted by the water which is projected onto stages found in this area.
In Banana Mania, the giant fish is absent, though smaller fish can be seen swimming in the background. There are also undersea flora, coral and starfish.
==Story Mode==
As this is the 3rd world of Story Mode, the stages aren't very difficult yet.
===Plot===
The monkeys find the time bomb that Dr. Bad-Boon placed inside the volcano and are worried that it might blow up soon. Except for Gongon, who proceeds to carelessly hurl the time bomb out of the volcano directly at Dr. Bad-Boon's airship.
After Bad-Boon's airship blew up and crashed into the ocean, he changed into his scuba gear and tried getting away from the monkey team by diving down into the deep. Unfortunately for him, the monkeys spotted him near the crash site before he could descend, and are now chasing him into the ocean.

==Trivia==
* Under the Ocean is one of two worlds that shares nine of its levels from Story Mode with Challenge Mode. The other world is Bubbly Washing Machine, which hosts Expert stages 21~29.
*The original music used in Super Monkey Ball 2 was not used in Banana Mania. The new song used is an original composition that uses elements from the original song.
*In Banana Mania, when sitting on the results menu after clearing a level in this world, the game will stop rendering the caustic light on stage surfaces after a couple of seconds. This can most clearly be seen on the stage Veer Field, where certain surfaces are still visible even after the camera has panned upwards.
*In the Nintendo Switch version of Banana Mania, the smaller fish, flora, coral and starfish do not appear in Monkey Race despite some of them appearing in the HUD menu.
