The one level in New Pokemon Snap that is probably super close to the original game's namesake, the Blushing Beach is a relaxing little area that makes up for its short length with some pretty nice scenery and some cool hidden photo opportunities.

You unlock the night version of the beach later in the game when you unlock RL 2 of the Night version of Shivering Snowfields. The night version is full of surprises as well, so be sure to check out both on your playthrough.

So let's get started and check out all of the Pokemon, and high star opportunities we found on Blushing Beach!

New Pokemon Snap Blushing Beach — 3-Star Opportunities

Crabrawler RL 1

Easy way to get a high rating with Crabrawler is to give it some fluffruit. Throw it near Crabrawler and hell quickly grab it and start chomping down, the perfect opportunity for a great photo op! You can also lure it closer to your camera if you angle the fluffruit just right.

Bellossom RL 1

Right at the end of the first section of the beach is a large Exeggutor that is blocking your path. If you stay there for a moment, to the left near the crystalbloom flower are two hidden Bellossom. Simply lure them out by playing some music, then play music again and they will begin to dance for you. You can bring them closer to you with a trail of fluffruit as well.

Pikachu RL 1

Need to wait or lure the Pikachu to the nearby shovel in the sand, and Pikachu will start inspecting it. Snap a picture as it does, which will net a special pose that is worth 3 stars at least.

Raichu RL 2

Alolan Raichu is seen surfing the sand dunes towards the end of the course. There are few ways to earn 3 or more stars with it. The first is to snap a photo as it launches off the dunes with a leap. You can also use some music to make it jump and stand in place, giving you ample time to shoot a good photo with Raichu up close. 

Blastoise RL 3
A Blastoise is sleeping on the beach towards the end of the course. Simply throw two pieces of fluffruit at it, and it will wake up and begin shooting water out of its cannons.

There is a horde of Belossom that you need to play music for. Thankfully, Exeggutor blocks your pathway still, so you can set up the perfect shot.

Machamp RL 2

The Machamp looking out to sea is just waiting for an illumina orb. Hit it while facing him, and he will flex in front of you for a 4-star shot.

Zangoose RL 2

The same procedure as the 3-star photo, you need to hit the Primarina with an illumina orb to get Zangoose to the bushes on the far side of the beach. As it practices its moves, if you lure out the Seviper, it will then brandish its claws for real, netting several chances for a 4-star photo. 

Primarina RL 2

At the start of the stage there is a Primarina on a far rock, out in the ocean. You will have to hit with an illumina orb to get it to swim off it before it leaves on its own.
