'''World 3''' is third main world in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' This world features a large beach-covered island, with many ocean- and beach-themed levels featuring [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-Cheep]]s, as well as the first [[Ghost House]] in the game. World 3 has a total of eleven exits, and the boss of the world is the [[Cheepskipper]]. After the completion of this world, the player instantly gains access to [[World 5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5]]. 

World 3 can be skipped if the player gains access to [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 4]] by finding the alternate exit in World 2-3, or defeating [[Mummipokey]], the boss of [[World 2 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 2]], in [[Mini Mario (form)|mini form]].
