'''Crystal Caves''' is a level in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. It is officially the sixth level in the game, though the player can choose to enter and complete [[Creepy Castle]] before it if they have enough Golden Bananas. It is a cavern complex filled with light blue crystals and jagged ore deposits. Wooden cabins, an ice castle, and an igloo are found here. A [[Giant Viking Kremling]] lurks in the highest part of the caves, raining stalactites down on the unsuspecting [[Kong]]s. This level's boss is a rematch with [[Army Dillo]], the boss from [[Jungle Japes]], and requires 350 regular bananas to give to [[Scoff]] and allow [[Troff]] to unlock the door to the boss. Entering Crystal Caves requires 65 [[Golden Banana]]s: After [[Dogadon]] is defeated a second time and the key is taken to [[K. Lumsy]], his jumping up and down will cause vibrations that explode a rock out of the right ear of [[DK Isles]]. The Crystal Caves lobby can typically be reached with [[Tiny Kong]]'s [[Ponytail Twirl]] or with [[Diddy Kong]]'s jetpack, though it also works with precise jumps from the other Kongs.

*#Chunky Kong must cross the waters where the Gnawty is. Chunky Kong can climb up the rocks in the left area to reach an ice castle. A [[boulder]] is located behind the ice castle, which can be placed on a boulder switch up a slope. This causes an igloo to be broken and reveals a boulder in another area. By going to the right in the area with Gnawty, Chunky Kong can break open an ice wall and obtain the boulder. Putting this boulder on another switch causes another igloo to blow up, leaving behind Chunky Kong's Golden Banana.

*#Chunky's room in the cabin near Candy's shop is full of searchlights. Chunky Kong must Simian Slam the targets when the light is not shining on them. If spotted, Kroc will trigger and immediately blast Chunky. After breaking all of the targets, a Chunky Pad activates, which he can use to activate [[Gorilla Gone]], sneak through the spotlight in the center of the room, and play a round of [[Searchlight Seek]] to obtain a Golden Banana.

*#In the area with igloos, Diddy Kong must fly through yellow and red DK stars to reveal instrument pads in front of the doors. Chunky Kong must find the triangle music pad and play his instrument to go inside. Once inside, Chunky Kong needs to defeat five [[Flame (Donkey Kong 64)|flames]] before they reach a [[TNT Barrel]] with the [[Rabbit (character)|Rabbit]] tied to it. The Rabbit rewards Chunky Kong with a Golden Banana once it is saved.
