N. Sanity Beach

N. Sanity Beach is the first level in Crash Bandicoot. This level is the second easiest level in the game, after Jungle Rollers, due to the crate bridge on the right side of the fork. It starts off with Crash washing up on the beach and he gets up and scratches his head. He realizes that he left his girlfriend, Tawna Bandicoot. There are two parts of this level. One is the beach, the other is the jungle. In the beach section, there a few boxes and three crabs. Next, there is a big temple wall that Crash must climb over in order to get to the jungle part. One weird thing is that there is a metal box crate on the left side of the wall, which serves no purpose whatsoever. After the temple wall. The player will see a checkpoint crate and an Aku Aku crate. This marks the beginning of the jungle part. Along the way, there are turtles, rows of skunks, and holes. Before the end of the level is a fork. The left side is only a turtle, a brick stone pole on the ground that the player needs to jump over, and two boxes. But the right side contains a crate bridge. This part is considered to be very hard. One trick is to get all three Aku Aku masks and quickly run through the crates, which will break all of them, before the invincibility goes away.Then at the part where the fork meets up again, there is a hole and a crate. Then there is the exit.
