Gloomy Galleon: Diddy Kong Strategy
In general, try to complete all the Things to Do tasks before attempting to grab any golden bananas - many require the completion of special tasks or ability upgrades to get them.
1. After Donkey turns on the lighthouse, with the water raised, go to the lighthouse island and use the jet pack barrel. Land on the K. Rool ship circling the island. Simian slam the green stomp switch with Diddy's face on it, which shoots out a banana. Jump off the ship, return to the island, and use the jump pack barrel to grab the banana atop the lighthouse.
2. Near Funky's arsenal, look for a cactus-shaped rock formation. On one rock is Diddy's guitar pad. Play the guitar gazump to unlock a passageway into a sunken ship. Dive into the water and swim like mad to the horizontal sunken ship. Look for a small opening on the side and swim in. Follow the red bananas into a room with a bonus barrel. Complete a rather difficult Splish Splash Salvage for the banana.
3. Once the water level is raised in the lighthouse area, go to the lighthouse island. Look for the jet pack barrel and use it to land on the top of the lighthouse. Play the guitar gazump on the guitar pad to let loose the orange mechanical fish in the sunken ship area. Quickly drop into the water (to save health) and get back onto the island to take the 5 bananaport to the sunken ship area. Dive in the water and swim into the fish's mouth. Kill the bee first and grab the ammo (it'll make things easier). Then, within the time limit, shoot the three circle targets on the fish's heart until they break.
4. With the water raised, and after Lanky uses the swordfish to unlock the DK gate that leads to the treasure room, look for a circular pad with Diddy's face on it. Press Z while on the pad to spring up to the bonus barrel. Complete Stealthy Snoop for the banana - and don't forget to jump to get it!
5. With the water lowered, fight the big red-haired Kasplat near Chunky's triangle music pad in the lighthouse area. Get the blueprint piece and return to Snide for the banana.
100 Red Bananas to Find
In each level there are 100 bananas for each Kong to find. Diddy has to collect the red ones. When you collect 75 you get a Banana Medal. The bananas are scattered loose (1 piece), in bunches (5 pieces) and in balloons (10 pieces). Below are the locations of the bananas, devided in single, bunched and ballooned bananas.
