'''Soda Lake''' is a secret underwater area reached by entering the secret [[Giant Gate]] of [[Cheese Bridge Area]] in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. This [[level]] is located in the [[Twin Bridges]] area. [[Torpedo Ted]]s, underwater [[Bullet Bill]] relatives, are exclusive to this level, where they are dropped from [[torpedo tube]]s. They can travel through walls and are always deployed in [[Mario]]'s (or [[Luigi]]'s) direction. When Mario clears the area, he unlocks the third [[Star Road (Super Mario World)|Star Road]].

==Access==
To access this level, players must enter Cheese Bridge Area and use a [[Cape Feather]] or [[Yoshi]] to make their way under the first Giant Gate to reach an alternate Giant Gate, making it possible to access Soda Lake.

==Overview==
At the start, the player descends from a [[Warp Pipe|gray pipe]]. They first encounter a [[Blurp]], and a torpedo tube appears. Proceeding past the enemies, the player encounters another three Blurps near a [[? Block|Prize Block]], which contains either a [[Super Mushroom]] or a [[Fire Flower]]. Past this Prize Block are two torpedo tubes and a line of Blurps passing through the bottom of the screen. The first [[Dragon Coin]] is situated between two torpedo tubes.

Up ahead, four Blurps travel from a row of descending torpedo tubes. Along with many regular [[coin]]s, the second Dragon Coin sits near the middle torpedo tube. The next open area has a lone pillar and more pockets of Blurps, containing either five or six of them. A nearby chasm contains the third Dragon Coin, where four torpedo tubes are situated near it along with three more Blurps. The fourth Dragon Coin is in plain sight right in front of another torpedo tube.

Beyond said torpedo tube, there is another one higher up, with two Blurps coming towards the player. This second torpedo tube becomes the first of three in a row, all surrounding the final Dragon Coin. A column of four Blurps blocks passageway until they pass by. Three more Blurps travel past as the player arrives at a passage where Torpedo Teds spawn above the player. The pipe at the end takes the player to the Giant Gate to complete the level.

The player can avoid most Blurps and Torpedo Teds by [[swim]]ming at the very bottom of the screen for nearly the entire level. The obstacles are penetrable at the bottom of the screen, though the player must be mindful not to sink too far below the viewable area of the screen.
