|[[File:Donkey Kong Island (DK64).png|256px]]<br>'''[[Donkey Kong Island|Kong Isle]]'''
|Kong Isle is the home of the Kongs and the centerpiece of DK Isles. Much like in previous games, it is depicted as being shaped like [[Donkey Kong]]'s head. It contains the starting area of the game, a small jungle region where [[DK's Tree House]] stands. To leave this area, DK needs to obtain the [[Simian Slam]] potion from [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] after completing his [[Training Barrel]]s. The outer portion of the island consists of a beach surrounded by a few cliffs and caves. The entrances to [[Jungle Japes]], [[Angry Aztec]], [[Fungi Forest]], and [[Crystal Caves]] are located here. After [[K. Lumsy]] is freed from his prison, he causes K. Rool's airship to crash land on the beach, setting up the game's final battle.

|[[File:Mechanical Crocodle Isle.png|256px]]<br>'''[[Crocodile Isle (Donkey Kong 64)|Crocodile Isle]]'''
|This is not a true part of DK Isles, but rather a large, fortified, mechanical island which K. Rool positioned in front of Kong Isle with the intent of firing the Blast-o-Matic from it and destroying the Kongs' home. Regardless, it is considered a part of the game's hub world. The entrances to [[Frantic Factory]], [[Gloomy Galleon]], [[Creepy Castle]], and [[Hideout Helm]] are located here. [[Snide's HQ]] is also here. Attached to Crocodile Isle is a [[K. Lumsy's Prison|small prison]] where K. Lumsy is being held.

|[[File:Banana Fairy Island.png|256px]]<br>'''[[Banana Fairy Island]]'''
|This island is the home of the Banana Fairies. It features a large structure shaped like a Banana Fairy's head, which Tiny is able to enter after learning the [[Mini-Monkey]] move, since the entrance is too small to go through otherwise. Upon doing so, she meets the [[Banana Fairy Princess]], who asks her to find the other Banana Fairies, who have gone missing from the island.

|Several small, unnamed islands surround Kong Isle. Two of them feature large rocks that, when destroyed, reveal cannons, which are used to access Fungi Forest and Creepy Castle. Another one features a large "X" which can be Simian Slammed by [[Hunky Chunky]] to reveal a Golden Banana.
