← All areas in this guide

Gale Isle is a windswept island located in the northern sector of the Great Sea, known primarily as the entrance to the Wind Temple. Strong gales prevent entry into the cavern until you use the Iron Boots to walk through the wind barrier and smash the stone face with the Skull Hammer. Inside, you learn the Wind God's Aria to awaken Makar as the new Wind Sage.
