Abandoned Beach Hidden Waddle Dee Locations
It's time to hit the beach and explore the semi-aquatic side of this Forgotten Land. There are three hidden Waddle Dees for you to find in the Abandoned Beach level, so let's get to it!
Abandoned Beach hidden Waddle Dee #1 - The first Abandoned Beach hidden Waddle Dee can be found after the Wild Bonkers mini boss battle. Swallow the Hammer ability and climb up the ladder. Use the hammer to smash the stump and drop the large stone ledge into the water. Collect the first Hidden Waddle Dee!
Abandoned Beach hidden Waddle Dee #2 - You'll find the second hidden Waddle Dee tucked away on a cliff overlooking the area with the whirlpools. When you get to the whirlpool spinning around the island look for a ledge to the right. Climb up the ledges and use Kirby's hammer to smash the log at the top. This opens up a hidden path in the stone wall below. Jump down and swim into the opening. Use the hammer ability on the log here and immediately start running across the metal pathway. The hidden Waddle Dee will appear, but the path will begin to disappear. Run fast to retrieve the Waddle Dee before it despawns.
Abandoned Beach hidden Waddle Dee #3 - The third Abandoned Beach hidden Waddle Dee is located behind a cracked wall in the final part of the level. As Ring Mouth Kirby, steer the boat through the wall and you'll find the hidden Waddle Dee in the back of the stage.
