'''Whale Bay''' is a location in ''[[Rayman 2]]''. It follows [[the Canopy]] in all versions of the game but the PlayStation version, in which it follows [[the Bayou]], and [[Rayman 2 Forever|the Game Boy Color version]], in which it is set directly after [[the Marshes of Awakening]]. In [[Rayman Revolution]] it can be accessed straight after arriving at [[Globox House]], however ~~it's~~ official position is still between [[~~The~~ Canopy]] and [[~~The~~ Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]]. This is where [[Rayman]] rescues [[Carmen]] the Whale from the [[Robo-Pirate]]s who planned to use her blubber for fuel. She then takes him to a grounded ship, or to [[the Sanctuary of Water and Ice]] in the PlayStation version, where he will fight [[Axel]] and find [[Four Masks of Polokus|the first mask of Polokus]].

Line 73:

[[Carmen]]'s journey is also majorly different, to a story-changing degree. Instead of taking [[Rayman]] to a grounded ship, she takes him to [[the Sanctuary of Water and Ice]]. This essentially merges the two levels together; however, the first part of [[The Sanctuary of Water and Ice|the Sanctuary]], as well as the sliding portion, have been cut out. As such, the only part remaining is the fight against [[Axel]].

As such, the boss of Whale Bay in the [[Rayman 2 (PlayStation)|PlayStation version]] is [[Axel]], the Guardian of [[the Sanctuary of Water and Ice]]. Whale Bay's rendition is also unique in that it is the only appearance of [[Axel]]'s to have dialogue. He states that he does not know [[Rayman]]'s true ~~intention~~, and consequently [[Rayman]] is forced to prove his bravery by fighting him.

''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' adds a connection between [[the Canopy]] and Whale Bay levels, compared to the odd linear connection in the other versions. Here, [[Rayman]] must rescue both [[Globox]] from [[the Canopy]] and [[Carmen]] from Whale Bay, otherwise he will not be able to access [[~~The Sanctuary of Stone and Fire|~~Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]].

Whale Bay can be accessed as soon as [[Rayman]] arrives at [[Globox House]], therefore it can be played as the fifth level in this game. However, [[Rayman]] is not prompted to go there until after [[~~The~~ Canopy]], suggesting that this may have been a development oversight.

To access Whale Bay in this version, [[Rayman]] must take a [[Baby Globox]] to the [[Skull Cave]], where the child will help him allude the two [[Robo-Pirate]] guards blocking the entrance to the bay, and open the door for him.
