Emerald Coast is the first action stage in Sonic Adventure. Most Sonic games start with a Green Hill style stage, but SA instead starts with this run along the beach near the Station Square Hotel. The beach is rendered in great detail, from footprints visible in the sand all the way down to a very realistic looking lens flair from the sunlight above. The stage has three possible areas:

Azure Blue World

This is the first part where Sonic starts. There are a lot of beach chairs scattered about and wooden bridges to walk across. This part also features the classic loop-to-loop that made the first Sonic the Hedgehog game so famous.. now done in 3D! E-102 gets a slightly altered version of this section for his version of the Emerald Coast stage.

Windy and Ripply

This second section is only available in Sonic's game. It features a run behind some waterfalls.

Big Fishin'

This area is only available to Big. Think of it as his secret fishing spot. Big can not go outside this area and it looks a lot like the area Sonic sees just before entering the "Windy and Ripply" section. If you wander around enough with Big, you'll find a small island out in the water with an entrance on one side. If you swim through this underwater passage, you'll end up inside the island's interior and there will be a secret place to fish.
