'''Palm Shore''' is a battle course in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' that takes place in a set of small islands. It resembles [[Sunshine Isles]] from ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' and the course [[DS Cheep Cheep Beach|Cheep Cheep Beach]]. It was later added as a retro battle course in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''.

== ''Mario Kart DS'' ==
'''Palm Shore''' is a battle course in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', which has a resemblance to [[Sunshine Isles]] and [[Cheep Cheep Beach]], by being carried out in a set of small islands. The course contains no obstacles, having just a palm tree on one of the islands and surrounded by a shallow sea. The tide tends to change considerably the course; the water rises and falls every few seconds, flooding the center of the course. If racers run into deeper waters, their [[kart]]s will slow down drastically, open for a potential opponent's attack. Many [[Item Box]]es are just located in the center of the course. If racers run into dark blue water area, they will stop and get picked up by [[Lakitu]] and brought back to the course, losing one balloon (in Balloon Battle) or [[Shine Sprite]] (in Shine Runners). The [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|Mission]] 4-2 takes place here. [[Yoshi]] must blast 20 [[crab]]s in two minutes, using only [[Green Shell]]s, Triple Green Shells and [[Bob-omb]]s.
Palm Shore is a round stage that is mostly empty besides having three sandy islands. One is a round-shaped central island with a single patch of grass, while the other two are shaped like curves and surround the central island. The western island has a patch of grass and a palm tree, while the eastern island is completely made of sand. Most of the [[Item Box]]es are in the center of Palm Shore, although some are more spread out along the inner sides of the western and eastern islands.


==Appearance in ''Mario Kart 7''==
All three islands are surrounded by a shallow sea, of which its tide changes considerably. The water rises and falls every few seconds, which can flood the center of the course. If racers run into deeper waters, their [[kart]]s slow drastically, making them vulnerable to an opponent's attack. Additionally, driving into the darker-colored waters surrounding the battle course is treated as if the player fell into a [[bottomless pit]], causing them to be fished out by [[Lakitu]] and be penalized accordingly in [[Battle Mode]].
Palm Shore reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as a retro battle course. The course now offers water terrain which uses the propeller. This is the only battle course to use underwater features. Also, in the game, there are three palm trees instead of one and all of the item boxes can be found at the center island instead of them being spread out all over the stage. Some [[Sidestepper]]s have also been added to the stage. When players go outside of the island, they can drive a small portion of the stage under water, something which was not included in ''Mario Kart DS''.

In Shine Runners, there are eight possible spawning locations for the [[Shine Sprite]]s. Seven of these spawning locations are distributed on both the western and eastern islands, with three on the former and four on the latter. A single Shine Sprite can also spawn on the center island as well.
 
===Missions===
There is one [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|mission]] that takes place on Palm Shore:
*'''Mission 4-2''': The player controls [[Yoshi]], who must use take out 20 [[Sidestepper]]s within 120 seconds. Each [[Item Box]] contains either a [[Bob-omb]], a [[Green Shell]], or [[Triple Green Shells]].
 
== ''Mario Kart 7'' ==
Palm Shore returns in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. The course uses the ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' arrangement of [[DS Twilight House]], while retaining its ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' layout. The racers are now able to drive in shallow [[Underwater driving|underwater areas]] (including a small portion away from the island), so they are no longer slowed by the water. Three palm trees were added to the center island, and every Item Box has been relocated there. Some [[Sidestepper]]s were also added to Palm Shore. It is the only battle course to have underwater features.

Palm Shore is a battle course in Mario Kart DS that takes place in a set of small islands. It resembles Sunshine Isles from Super Mario 64 DS and the course Cheep Cheep Beach. It was later added as a retro battle course in Mario Kart 7.

Mario Kart DS[edit]

Palm Shore is a round stage that is mostly empty besides having three sandy islands. One is a round-shaped central island with a single patch of grass, while the other two are shaped like curves and surround the central island. The western island has a patch of grass and a palm tree, while the eastern island is completely made of sand. Most of the Item Boxes are in the center of Palm Shore, although some are more spread out along the inner sides of the western and eastern islands.

All three islands are surrounded by a shallow sea, of which its tide changes considerably. The water rises and falls every few seconds, which can flood the center of the course. If racers run into deeper waters, their karts slow drastically, making them vulnerable to an opponent's attack. Additionally, driving into the darker-colored waters surrounding the battle course is treated as if the player fell into a bottomless pit, causing them to be fished out by Lakitu and be penalized accordingly in Battle Mode.

In Shine Runners, there are eight possible spawning locations for the Shine Sprites. Seven of these spawning locations are distributed on both the western and eastern islands, with three on the former and four on the latter. A single Shine Sprite can also spawn on the center island as well.

Missions[edit]

There is one mission that takes place on Palm Shore:

Mario Kart 7[edit]

Palm Shore returns in Mario Kart 7. The course uses the Mario Kart Wii arrangement of DS Twilight House, while retaining its Mario Kart DS layout. The racers are now able to drive in shallow underwater areas (including a small portion away from the island), so they are no longer slowed by the water. Three palm trees were added to the center island, and every Item Box has been relocated there. Some Sidesteppers were also added to Palm Shore. It is the only battle course to have underwater features.
