[[File:Maridia.png|thumb|The sandy section of Maridia.]]

'''Maridia''' is large, a semi-aquatic section of Planet [[Zebes]] in ''[[Super Metroid]]''. The area is only accessable after {{samus}} acquires the [[Gravity Suit]] in the [[Wrecked Ship]]. Most of the area is submerged with water, however a large portion of the area consists of sand walls and quicksand floors. Maridia is said to have once been part of [[Brinstar]], but an epidemic flooded the caverns, similar to the [[Torvus Bog|Torvus Forest]] of Planet [[Aether]].

The first access point to Maridia, which is the only one available at the time, is in a tunnel in the middle of Brinstar. In order to access Maridia from the tunnel, Samus must lay a [[Power Bomb]] and break the tunnel apart. However, the water-filled room cannot be ascended without the Gravity Suit. There are three upgrades to be acquired in Maridia, which are the [[Space Jump]], the [[Plasma Beam]], and the [[Spring Ball]]. Two bosses inhabit the area, those of which are [[Botwoon]] and [[Draygon]].
