The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask guide · After learning the New Wave Bossa Nova

After learning the "New Wave Bossa Nova", you can summon the giant turtle sleeping near the Marine Research Lab by playing the melody while standing on the pedestal in front of him. Using the Hookshot on the palm tree on the turtle's back transports Link directly to the Great Bay Temple. The coast also serves as the staging ground for several optional Heart Pieces and side objectives using newly acquired abilities.
