{{game help|p4|Fill in the infobox and describe the area.}}
'''Serene Shores''' is the third [[area]] in Pikmin 4. It is set on a beach, with a large sand-castle structure as a focal point.

Uniquely, this area will change depending on the time of [[day]] it currently is, as the water levels will decrease at midday. This area has {{sparklium|p4|7,945}} worth of treasure, of which {{sparklium|p4|3,255}} is above ground.

== Plot ==
{{game help|p4|Describe plot points in this area, if there are any.}}
After collecting more Sparklium, [[Collin]] detects more signals from a beach area. The [[Red Leafling]] is here with another [[castaway]].

== Layout ==
The following notable features can be found in this area.
* Sandy and rocky terrain.
* Low-lying vegetation.
* Palm trees in the distance.
* Giant oceans 
=== Bases ===
* Blossoming Dunes: This is the default landing site, found to the right of the sand castle. While they do not stop it from being unlocked, during [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]], two [[Whiptongue Bulborb]]s can be found by this base.
* Water's Edge: This base is unguarded by creatures, but is covered with sand. It can be found towards the map's center, past the pools of water. During [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]], this is the default landing site upon first visiting.
* The Sand Keep: This base is guarded by a [[Crusted Rumpup]] at the top of the large sandcastle near the player's initial landing site. During [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale]], a [[Sovereign Bulblax]] will guard this base.

== Caves ==
*[[Seafloor Resort]]
*[[Subzero Sauna]]
*[[Below-Grade Discotheque]]
*[[Engulfed Castle]]

=== Dandori Challenge 1 ===
Found in the elevated area of the level, accessed only through the exit of the [[Engulfed Castle]]. The entrance to the Dandori Challenge is in a nearby alcove past the [[Whiptongue Bulborb]].

=== Dandori Challenge 2 ===
In the large body of water where the [[Slapstick Crescent]] and the [[Giant's Fossil]] are found, the entrance is hidden in some seaweed. Because its entrance is fully submerged, it is the only Dandori Challenge or Dandori Battle cave without a cutscene encounter with the [[Leafling]] of the level, instead simply opening the hole like any regular cave entrance. Oatchi will also emerge regularly from the hole, landing on the seabed and only floating to the top of the water once the exit cutscene has ended.

=== Dandori Battle ===
A Dandori Battle can be found near the 1st base, Blossoming Dunes. To the left, the cave's entrance is surrounded by water. As [[Pikmin 4 player character|the player]] and [[Oatchi]] are immune to water, they can simply travel up the slope to access the entrance. However, to transport the castaway earned from completing the battle safely, it's recommended the bridge connecting the cave to the mainland is built or the water surrounding it is frozen.
