Marooner's Bay is a Salmon Run and Salmon Run Next Wave exclusive online multiplayer stage in Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3. It will be released in Splatoon 3 on December 1st, 2022, which is the start of the Chill Season.

Layout

Marooner's Bay features a large metal ship marooned on a sandbar with its stern having three ramps down onto the beach where there are three piers on the starboard side. During low tide, a sandbar will rise to the fore of the ship, revealing a large ring of land and one smaller protrusion.

Tides

• During high tide, only the ship may be accessed with all Salmonids advancing from the stern. The propeller lifts become unusable.
• During low tide, the shoreline is revealed beyond the bow of the ship. While a Cohock Charge occurs, three Ink Cannons will spawn; one atop the ship, and two on the beach.

Trivia

• The internal codename for this stage in the game files is "Shakeship".
• When the tide changes from low to mid, it is possible for a player to go back to the shoreline and jump onto the low tide egg basket's pedestal. When the water finishes rising, they will be stranded there.
  • This is fixed as of Version 3.2.0.
• As of Version 3.2.0, the gusher previously closest to the top of the port side propeller lift is removed, and the moving pattern of the Goldie is adjusted.
• The loadout for the rotation on 21 April, 2018 at 18:00 UTC was Sloshing Machine, Dapple Dualies, Tri-Slosher, and Classic Squiffer, all based on common cleaning supplies in Japan. The fact that this took place on this ship whose Japanese name is Don Burako can be construed as a parody of Momotarō, a popular Japanese folklore that begins with the peach boy protagonist found adrift (donburako) on a river by an old lady who was washing clothes.
• On some of the kebabs with sausages, there is what appears to be the Squidluminati logo. It is unknown whether or not the Salmonids have a connection with it.
• The cargo boat that makes up a significant part of the stage was landlocked several decades ago. Though it was never removed and became inhabited by Salmonids.
• A complex reef surrounds Marooner's Bay, making it dangerous for small boats to come near the area.
