Mystery Island

Mystery Island is the first world in Crash Tag Team Racing. The world's theme is a pirate theme and features a large pirate ship in the middle of it. The world features three race tracks, each named with a connection to pirates or underwater. The name of the three tracks are: Tiki Turbo, Pirates of the Carburetor and Deep Sea Driving. There is also a battle arena called Jungle Rumble. This world features many die-o-ramas that involve being eaten by sharks, shot by a cannon, getting squished by gears and being blown up by monkeys and chickens.

Like every world in Crash Tag Team Racing, there is a jump pad which needs to use a certain amount of crystals in order to get to the next power gem. In this case, you need eight to access the jump pad. The jump pad is located next to Cortex. Cortex is the only other playable character that you see in Mystery Island.

The track Deep Sea Driving also has a track secret that can be accessed by shooting a cannon at a ship, causing it to drop onto the track.
