==[[Rayman 2 (PlayStation)|PlayStation version]]==

In the PlayStation version of ''[[Rayman 2]]'', Whale Bay follows [[the Bayou]] level instead of [[the Canopy]]. The level is notably more difficult than in any other version, requiring the player to battle many camouflaged [[Barrel Pirate]]s where in other versions the player would have just had to journey through respawning [[Robo-Pirate]]s and not have to fight any [[Barrel Pirate]]s. It is possible, however, to avoid all encounters except for one. The ocean where [[Rayman]] rescues [[Carmen]] has been changed; instead of finding his way into a ship and triggering a [[switch]], he has to find 4 [[switch]]es around the ocean, similar to [[the Echoing Caves]].

[[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 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 intensions, and consequently [[Rayman]] is forced to prove his bravery by fighting him.
