Being that this trope is about beach levels, I think the trope name is bad. Palmtree Panic in Sonic CD is a Green Hill Zone, through and through. This would require some pretty significant rewrites, but the confusion between "beach level" and "grass level that has palm trees" is strongly evident in the examples.

It would at worst be a case of This Index Is Not an Example. I don't think a rewrite is needed (if it did, besides, then you'd have to go to a full-on Trope Repair Shop thread on the forums).

I feel this topic has way too much overlap with Green Hill Zone. They're the same types of zones, both organic and green, both usually meant to be introductory zones, it's just that Palmtree Panic has a beach in it.

They're even both named after Sonic levels. And the article admits there's a lot of overlap.

I feel like they should be merged.

Should we put "No real life examples" to this page?
