The Marvelous Magnifico - These gnomes have stolen some magic from the sorceress. They will do some tricks that help you along the way, but some of them are only temporary. If the magic wares out go talk to them again.

Swimming Glitch - At the second pool with 3 moving crystal platforms (the one outside) you can activate the famous Swimming Glitch. This glitch lets you swim throughout the whole level. Get in the water and swim on the surface toward the edge of the water on the right. There should be a slight angle in the land. Face Spyro toward the land, into the angle, and get his head over the land while his body is still in the water. Press the square button to dive but instead of diving under water you may find Spyro Swimming in the air. It may take a couple tries to get this to work.
