The Joma Marsh (ジョマの沼 Joma no Numa?, lit. "Swamp of Joma"), also called the Cieresor Swamp in the Castlevania Anniversary Collection, is a location in Castlevania II: Simon's Quest. It is a swamp area. The path enters the marsh from the Devious Woods, leads to the Laruba Mansion, and again heads toward and through to the Joma Marsh, and takes the player to the other side of Camilla Cemetery that was encountered earlier. The marshes are poisonous and can take a while to get through and some parts are uncrossable without consuming at least one Laurel. Fortunately, there is a Gypsy in the nearby Laruba Mansion who will fill up the player's supply of Laurels.

The path taken in Super Castlevania IV to Dracula's Castle generally aligns with the optimal path that can be taken in Simon's Quest to the castle. The Joma Marsh corresponds with the Poison Lake found in the second stage.
