Emerald Coast (Sonic Generations)

Emerald Coast is a level in the video game Sonic Generations that originally appeared in the game Sonic Adventure. It is exclusive to the 3DS version and it's the first stage of the Adventure Era. The Orca from the original stage appears to chase both Sonics (Classic in 2D and Modern in 3D)

Act 1
In Act 1, the level begins next to the Resort from Station Square. In the first part of the level, Classic Sonic crosses the beach, climbs the rocky structures and escapes from the orca. After the chase and crossing the lighthouse, Sonic runs on the walls, uses jump panels as well red and blue platforms and uses the wind to avoid falling in the water.There's also a little underwater section in a lower route. The level ends in a similar way to the original level.

Act 2
In Act 2, Modern Sonic starts on a bridge close to the rocky structures rather than in the beach. There, Sonic goes from dock to dock while boosting through a rainbow and red rings. There's some fast-paced platforming that require Sonic using the boost and jumping at the right time to reach the higher routes. He can also use jump panels. The level also features some blue dolphins, similar to the ones from Pirates' Island (Sonic Rush Adventure) that help Sonic cross the water. At the end of Modern Sonic's stage, he gets attacked by the Orca and then gets boosted into the air by a Spring.Performing Combo Tricks is necessary to avoid getting eaten by the Orca.
