There are many blue coins that cannot be found with specific levels, they are hidden around Delfino Plaza itself.
There are twenty blue coins that cannot be found within specific levels, except for one in the airport, they are hidden around Delfino Plaza itself.
 
==Visible==
===Jail===
Locate the building with the bell tower in the southeast corner of the plaza, in other words at the opposite end of the beach from the lighthouse. On the south side, over the water, is an open window. Hop from the ledge nearby and hover into the window to land in a room with barred windows. Liberate the coin that's doing time in there.

===Pineapple lady===
===Pineapple lady===
This woman is standing next to the giant Shine Gate north of the central dock area and she asks for pineapples. Her basket is high off the ground so you'll need to throw (jump + B) the fruits in. Finding the best place to throw from takes a bit of trial and error but isn't as hard as it seems. Alternatively, you can bounce on her head three times and if you land on the edge of the basket, you can then simply drop the fruit in.

Locate a graffiti cross on the east side of the base of the Pianta statue (right of the Bianco Hills entrance). Locate a corresponding cross one the west side of the southwest tower (the one with the radio dish). Wash one cross off to make a blue coin appear at the other cross, then quickly get to the other cross to collect the coin before it disappears. The slip-slide move is very useful here for covering the distance in time, or wait until you get the turbo nozzle and use it. Do both crosses to collect two coins.

==Miscellaneous washing (x3)==
===Flaming Pianta===
This might sound like the name of a refreshing cocktail, but after you open Gelato Beach there actually is a Pianta fellow running around wearing a backpack that's on fire! He normally is found on the beach near the lighthouse but may also appear next to the central dock. You need to chase him around with FLUDD going to put out the fire, then talk to him to be rewarded with a blue coin. After collecting the coin, the same Pianta can be seen wandering around with his backpack full of red mushrooms.


==Flaming Pianta==
===Blue parrots (x2)===
This might sound like the name of a refreshing cocktail, but early on in the game there actually is a Pianta fellow running around the streets on fire! He'll appear after you've collected your first few shines. So, when you see him, make his day and give him a quick squirt. In return he'll give you a blue coin.
There are 2 blue [[../Enemies#Parrot|parrots]] flying around Delfino Plaza which turn in to blue coins when you spray them. They fly around but if left alone they perch in the following locations:


*On the roof of the building to the left of the shine gate.
*On the roof of the building north of the Pianta statue.


==Blue birds (x2)==
The blue birds usually hang around with some green birds, and are very wary of Mario's presence so you'll have to squirt them from quite far away if you want to catch them sitting still. You can also wait where they would normally land and squirt them in mid air. When you squirt them they fly away for a bit and then come back to the same spot. A few good hits should be enough to turn them into coins.
There are 2 blue birds flying around Delfino Plaza which turn in to blue turns when you spray them. Their locations are:


*On the roof of the crate smashing game (or very nearby).
==Subterranean tunnels (x3)==
*On the roof near the red pipe that warps you to Sirena Beach.
===North===
The north end of a tunnel under the shine gate.


The blue birds usually hang around with some green birds, and are very wary of Mario's presence so you'll have to squirt them from quite far away. When you squirt them they fly off for a few seconds and then land pretty much where the were before - but if you are too close they won't land again, so give them some space. If you spray them enough times, they will turn into blue coins.
===Center===
A tunnel under the main dock.


==Stone pillars in the sea==
===West===
The underground passage that leads to the island with the coconut lady.


Near the tower on the east beach, where the portal to Gelato Beach is, there are some stone pillars a little way out to sea - you've probably been there before by this point. One of the further-out pillars has a double door in the bottom of it, which hides a blue coin. Use FLUDD's Turbo Nozzle (if you haven't unlocked it yet, you'll have to wait a while) to skim across the ocean and smash through the double doors and grab the coin.
==Yoshi needed (x2)==
===Northeast tower window===
Go to the rooftops in the northeast section of the plaza, between the shine gate and the lighthouse. Look on the north side to find some orange goop covering a window. Get Yoshi and spray the goop with fruit juice and it melts away. You can now hop into the window and collect the coin there. When you re-enter the plaza the goop will be restored even though there is no coin behind it.


==Two jelly covered hatches==
===Northwest tower window===
#On the rooftops in the north-east of Delfino Plaza, near the tower that warps you to Gelato Beach, there is a small tower with a hatch covered by yellow jelly. Use Yoshi to squirt juice on the jelly, melting it and revealing a blue coin.
Go to the rooftops in the northwest section of the plaza, near the red cannon, and look on the east side of the tower to find some orange goop covering a window near the top. Get Yoshi and spray the goop with fruit juice so it melts away. Yoshi's fruit juice range is pretty good so you can to this from the next building over. You can now do one of the following:
#The other tower is very tall and near the crate guy. After spraying it with Yoshi, you can do one of the following:
*Abandon Yoshi and climb the small ledge circling the tower. The sidestep move may come in handy here.
#*Abandon Yoshi and climb the small ledge circling the tower.
*More difficult, do a spin jump and float with Yoshi all the way up there.
#*Try to do a spin jump and float with Yoshi all the way up there.
Collect the coin when you reach the window.


==Turbo needed==
===Stone pillars in the sea===
Locate the pillars a little out to sea from the lighthouse. One of the further-out pillars has a double door in the bottom of it, which hides a blue coin. Equip the Turbo Nozzle and smash through the double doors to get the coin.


==Airport==
Note, even though this is in the airport, it shows up in coin count for the plaza. You can only get this coin after you have entered Corona Mountain at least once (whether you defeat Bowser or exit stage).


==List of all 20==
===Waiting room ice===
''This should be integrated and expanded upon like the above coins.''
Collect 10 gold coins in the plaza and talk to the Pianta by the boat at the southwest dock. Pay the fare to be taken back to the airport. You should see a turbo crate near the landing, so grab it and equip the turbo nozzle. Smash through the double doors of the building at the end of the landing to gain entrance to the airport waiting room. On the right find a block of ice. Switch to the squirt nozzle and spray the ice until it melts away leaving a blue coin.


#Go to Delfino Airstrip if you have unlocked it. Get the Turbo Nozzle and go through the door (yes, you break it). You should see a block of ice. With the Squirt Nozzle, spray it until it melts. Collect the coin and exit the area.
#The two corresponding X marks. One is on the statue leading to Bianco Hills and the other is near the Pianta who takes you to the Airstrip.
#Same as above.
#M Graffiti behind a crate.
#There is a Pianta on fire! Spray him until the fire is out and talk to him.
#There is a lady Pianta on the island. Talk to her. She wants you to put three coconuts in the basket. There is a coconut tree right next to her, so I don't know why she can't get it herself. Spray down the coconuts, put three in her basket and then talk to her.
#There is a Pianta lady near the Shine Gate. She wants three pineapples. Get the pineapples from the shop and put/throw it in her basket.
#There is a Pianta lady across the water. Talk to her and she wants three durians. Go to the shop. The catch is that you can't carry the durians, you can only kick it. Kick it above the wall to the next level, then kick it across the water. Put the durians in her basket.
#There is a Pianta lady across from Pianta lady from number 6. She wants three bananas. Put three bananas in the basket (if you didn't notice, she said three bananas. There are three bananas in one bunch, So technically, she wants NINE bananas).
#There is a M Graffiti behind the crate near the Shine Gate.
#There is a M Graffiti behind a building on the wall.
#Get Yoshi. There is a force field on the top of a building near the Pianta on the roof,
#Same as 11, but the force field is on a building near the lighthouse.
#There is a blue bird on the roof near the statue.
#There is a blue bird across from the force field in 12. Go across all the roofs to find it.
#Get the Turbo Nozzle. On one of the pillars, there is a small door. Go through it for a blue coin.
#In the jail cell under the bell tower nearer to the beach.
#In the sewers near Corona Mountain.
#In the sewers near the center of Delfino Plaza.
#In the sewers beneath the ocean.
