Complete walkthrough for Part 10 of Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, covering Shipwreck Shore. Find all puzzle pieces, KONG letters, and secrets.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Start by heading left and ground-pounding boxes to reveal a hidden handle for a puzzle piece.
  2. 2
    The next handle to the right dispenses a watermelon bomb; use it to blow up enemies.
  3. 3
    A banana coin hovers overhead; use the climbable ceiling to reach it.
  4. 4
    Enter the water near the bulb plant and swim under the ship to find a sunken puzzle piece.
  5. 5
    Break the Dixie barrel on the ship to swap to Diddy Kong.
  6. 6
    Grab the KONG letter 'K' by jumping on the large box to the right, then using the ponytail twirl on the hanging boxes.
  7. 7
    Ground-pound the suspicious floor section under the right hanging box to access a bonus area. Collect all bananas on the bouncy platforms for a puzzle piece.
  8. 8
    The KONG letter 'O' is between two hanging platforms; use a ponytail twirl to grab it.
  9. 9
    If you ponytail twirl off the right box into the wall above the bulb plant, a winged banana appears, leading to a giant banana bunch.
  10. 10
    Swim back under the ship from the right for another giant banana bunch.
  11. 11
    Checkpoint #1 reached.
  12. 12
    Grab the climbable ceiling, follow it left, and jump into the wall to reveal a hidden area with a puzzle piece.
  13. 13
    Continue climbing walls and ceilings to the right. Ground-pound the bulb flower above two turtles to reveal a bag; throw tuff tucks at it for a puzzle piece.
  14. 14
    On the next climbable ceiling, head left for a hidden giant banana bunch.
  15. 15
    A required swimming section follows. Watch your oxygen meter; diving helmets provide bubbles for air.
  16. 16
    Head down and left, then corkscrew through wreckage to find a spiral of bananas. Collect them for a puzzle piece.
  17. 17
    Continue right, take the top path at the fork to pick up the KONG letter 'N'.
  18. 18
    Above the 'N', grab bananas to reveal six banana coins.
  19. 19
    Return to the top path, loop back left along the bottom path, and break the first box with a corkscrew for a puzzle piece.
  20. 20
    Continue right and up to reach Checkpoint #2.
  21. 21
    Drop into the first pool of water after the checkpoint and corkscrew next to the barrel under the buoy to reveal a puzzle piece.
  22. 22
    In the next pool, a path of bananas leads downward. Use Dixie's ponytail propeller to swim against the current into a blue portal and smash the slot barrel for a secret level.
  23. 23
    To continue normally, swim right and ground-pound the raft. Collect the four columns of bananas ahead for a puzzle piece.
  24. 24
    Use the monocle Monicas to jump to the climbable ceiling with the KONG letter 'G'. The ceiling slides towards a propeller, so be quick. Duck under the propeller to proceed.
  25. 25
    Ground-pound the bulb plant on the far right for a giant banana bunch, then bounce to the slot barrel to end the level.
