There are theoretically two ways to reach the Star Coin below the giant Urchin. Enter the pipe, and you’ll see that another giant Urchin is blocking your way. Star Coin 3: After you collect the second Star Coin, you’ll pass by a few giant Urchins before you see one guarding a pipe. A trail of coins will appear and lead you below this platform, where a hidden P Switch will release coins and a Star Coin from above. Star Coin 2: Just after the checkpoint, you’ll see a platform with a giant Porcupuffer on either side. You’ll find the first Star Coin drifting along the side of these pipes.

Star Coin 1: Look for a collection of three pipes (red, then yellow, then red) pointing up and to the left.
