The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker/Islands

In The Wind Waker, the Great Sea is divided into 49 equal square sectors, and arranged in a 7×7 square. The islands listed below are arranged as they appear on the map of the Great Sea in the game. Islands of particular importance to the plot are listed in bold.

There is a difference between the island information here and side-quests. Items to be gained, locations of submarines, secrets caves, and Merman hints are discussed here (among many other things). However, longer character interactions leading to items, and trading sequences are not mentioned here, but on the Side-quests page. Also, dungeon info and items are not discussed here, but on the Walkthrough pages.

Forsaken Fortress (A1)
"Merman: 'I hear there's a fellow on Windfall Island who's collecting Skull Necklaces. You know who it is, fry? I don't. Sorry. What I CAN tell you is that those piggish monsters you see here in the Forsaken Fortress seem to carry those Skull Necklaces around all the time. Not that I think it's easy work stealing anything from the likes of those guys.'"

 * Silver rupee: Treasure Chart #25
 * Piece of Heart: Go to room at Southern end of fortress. Step on a hidden switch to open a jail cell. Piece of Heart in chest in jail cell.

Star Island (A2)
"Merman: 'I hear that somewhere out in the wild world is a handy arrow that can freeze anything. With something like that, you could even freeze that nasty monster in the Forsaken Fortress... for awhile anyway. But then, what would you do with a frozen monster, you say? Good question, fry. Why, I'd say that you'd give that thing a whack and watch it shatter into teeny-tiny pieces!'"

Star Island is shaped like a small, six-pointed star, and has several large boulders and a Wilted Deku Tree.

It's a pretty cool magical relic, from what I've heard. If you want him to give it to you, try staring deep into his eyes and winning him over with flattery, fry! Ahhhh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!'"

Let me just tell you a little secret... if you go five squares south and one square east from here, you'll reach Ice Ring Isle, where you'll find an item that will make you as heavy as stone. If you get that item, you won't have to worry about being blown over by the winds.'"

Items

General info
This small rock is shaped like a crescent moon. Surrounding the island are many small wooden platforms holding jars with rupees inside.

But the cliff face rises sharply, and even if you wanted to climb it, there aren't any ledges or footings for you to grab onto. So what are you going to do, small fry?'"

General info
This island looks like a set of small towers rising out of the ocean. Hidden inside is a secret cave reachable only if Link hookshots up to the roof (using the palm trees) and drops down. Inside the secret cave is a Triforce Chart, only obtainable if Link fights many enemies, including four Darknuts at a time.

Four-Eye Reef (B1)

General info
Four-Eye Reef is the first of six "reefs" consisting of a square shaped enclosed lagoon with a number of little islands inside corresponding to the number in the island's name. The objective at each one of these "reefs" is to destroy the cannons that hang from the walls, and the gunboats, in order to make a chest appear on top of one of the islands. Link then climbs up on the enclosing ring, and using the Deku Leaf, glides to the island in the middle.

Mother & Child Isles (B2)
"Merman: 'They say that inside the ring of rocks that makes up the perimeter of that island, there lives an incredibly beautiful fairy. But the thing is, nobody's ever met her. Supposedly, the only way you'll ever meet her is to take a ride on a whirlwind and drop inside that rock perimeter from above. Doesn't sound easy, fry.'"

General info
Mother & Child Isles is host to the Queen of Fairies, who will give Link the Fire and Ice Arrows, but only after you save Aryll from the Forsaken Fortress. The inner grotto where she lives can only be reached by warping there using the Ballad of Gales. As for "Child Isle", the smaller rock next door, a Goron Merchant and a Wilted Deku Tree wait here.

"Merman: 'Out on the cape of this island is this crazy dancing fool who can't tell you day from night! The guy's nuts...but you've got to respect someone who's not afraid to just let it all hang out like that, you know? I've been watching him, thinking I'd try to learn that dance and compete with him from out here in the ocean... But I just can't seem to swing with that crazy, funky rhythm of his. That guy's incredible!'"

General info
Most of the possibilities on Windfall are covered in the Walkthrough and the Side-quests page, but there is one special treasure chest that contains a Piece of Heart which can only be reached with the fire arrows in your quiver.

Items

 * Heart Piece:
 * During nighttime on Windfall Island, direct the wind North, then talk to the man in orange on the stairs leading to the Windmill/Ferris Wheel. He will tell Link that the Ferris Wheel can be started by pressing the switch behind the lighthouse. Go back to the door. Now, climb the railing near the door and leap down to the ledge where you see a ladder. Climb the ladder and press the switch.


 * Now, with the Ferris Wheel moving, return to the Ferris Wheel and enter one of its gondolas, riding it upwards. When you are halfway up, take out your Fire Arrows and get ready to shoot. At the apex of the ride, the lighthouse light should be turned to face you exactly. Shoot a fire arrow directly into the light fixture, aiming for the small torch in the center. If you aim correctly, the lighthouse should light and a chest will be revealed on a tiny island near the Bomb Shop. You can either set the wind to that direction and glide there, or Hookshot to the chest at close range (if you have the Hookshot).

They're those slimy, monster-like puddles of goo that turn into blobs of jelly, stand up, and start jumping at you like crazy when you came near them. Well, in any case, there's lots of them on that island over there, so if you see any, I'd avoid them. They can get...nasty. Now that I think about it, every once and a while I see the potion brewer who lives on Windfall Island come here... Now why would he do that, fry?'"

Other features

"Merman: 'There's a real peculiar cave toward the backside of this here Dragon Roost Island. Yeah, real peculiar. But I'll doubt you'll ever get there to see it, small fry- unless you manage to sprout wings and fly, that is... 'Cause you won't be getting there otherwise!'"

I hear you can throw that thing at monsters and use it to grab treasure they've hidden in their pockets. Talk about cool. Oh, and have you seen those imp-like creatures called Bokoblins that hang out on the lookout platforms at sea and stare through their telescopes? I hear those guys keep Joy Pendants hidden in the pockets, so if you get one of those Grappling Hooks, you can use it to swipe their pendants! "

It was quite a grand sight, I tell you, the way that ray of light shone out like a shaft of gold through the cold darkness. I used to gaze at it with dear Gillian... Anyway, I bet if someone could shoot a powerful spark into the top of that lighthouse, it would light up again! Of course, that's just my intuition talking...

Tingle Island (C3)
"Merman: 'Let me tell you a little something about that island over there, small fry... The guy who lives there is named Tingle, but he won't grow up and act his age. He still dresses like a little kid. That...is not normal. Still, from what I hear, he can decipher maps like nobody's business! It just goes to show that you can't judge a person on appearance alone, fry! Of course, the thing about this Tingle guy is that when it comes to pay his deciphering fee, you'd better be ready to fork over some serious dough. Anyone who doesn't have a deep wallet won't be reading any maps, that's for sure.'"

Auctions may be a race to see who can bid the highest, but I'll let you in on a little secret: the key to winning an auction is to be both patient and bold. I'm serious, fry! From what I hear, they get some great things up on that auction block, too... Like heart-shaped stuff, among other things. Maybe that's just a rumor. You should try it out, small fry.
