When you start, swim down to the bottom and open up the clam.

Get onto the platform with the blue coin switch, hit it, and grab the six blue coins.

You only need to get five of the red coins, so you can ignore coins five, six, and seven.

Hit the ! Switch and head up to the platforms with the poles.

Swim up to the top and get onto the dock.

Swim to the top and use a metal cap if you have trouble. It can be very difficult to get them, as the current is very strong.

Near the black tunnel, there is a column of five coins.

Swim through the tunnel, down to the bottom, and past the 3 clams.

Near and in the tunnel, there are three rings of yellow coins, for 24 coins in total.

There are two vertical columns of five yellow coins near the whirlpool.

Swim down to the bottom, where there are three coins near each other.

As soon as you enter, swim around the top sides of The Bay, until you find a line of five yellow coins.

This is one of the harder coin missions in the game, with just 106 coins. If you are still needing coins, get the Wario cap and break the black bricks. The first line of coins has been replaced by additional coins on the bottom of The Bay. Once there, grab onto the other pole and ride it over to the final red coin.

Head back to the platform where the star will appear, but instead of continuing back to where you started, grab onto the other pole off to the side, and keep jumping poles until you get to a platform with a blue coin block.

The sixth and seventh red coins are in the way.

Now you have to jump onto another pole, except this time both the poles are moving, making it even more difficult.

Keep holding onto that pole into the fifth red coin.

If you fall, climb back up to where you were and try again. This is where it gets difficult, as you have to jump off your pole and land on the other one right next to it when it stops. Hold onto it until you get to the platform where the star will appear, at which point let go and grab onto the next pole in the same direction.

Once you're on the first platform, grab onto the other pole.

Wait until the pole comes over to you, then grab onto it and slide up and down it as necessary to grab the three coins.

The next three coins are all to the left of you.

The first coin is right in front of you on the same platform as you're currently on.

You have to hit the same switch as star 1, but climb the other steps.

Note: You have to defeat Bowser in the Fire Sea (30 stars and one from Dire, Dire Docks) for the poles to appear.

Also, it can be cheated by simply playing as Mario and using the Flower Power to float up to the top. This was made much easier in the Nintendo DS version, as there is a platform for the poles that pass over coins 6 and 7, and you only need to use one pole to get to the blue coin block.
