The Fairy Islands are heart-shaped landmarks on the Great Sea in The Wind Waker, home to five different Great Fairies. While these islands may look alike, the method used to enter the Great Fairy Fountain is different for each, as is the equipment upgrade that Link receives as a gift for visiting each Great Fairy.

Overview
Northern Fairy Island
Northern Fairy Island is a small, heart-shaped island located on quadrant A3 of the Great Sea. Unlike the other Fairy Islands, the entrance to the shell is not blocked by any obstacle. Link can enter to find a Great Fairy inside, who will upgrade the holding capacity of his Rupee Wallet to either 1000 Rupees or 5000 Rupees, depending whether or not he has received the wallet upgrade in Outset Island.

| The little shop master on Windfall Island apparently got his hands on a truly amazing treasure. He calls it Magic Armor or something like that. 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! |

| Mr. Fairy! Mr. Fairy! Why can't you see me? |
Western Fairy Island
Western Fairy Island is a small, heart-shaped island located on the Great Sea. The entrance to a shell on the island is blocked by a ring of fire, though by hitting a plunger with the Skull Hammer, the fire will recede, allowing Link to enter and receive a Quiver upgrade from the Great Fairy within.

| I hear the bird-people who live on Dragon Roost Island east of here have invented an incredibly useful device that they call a Grappling Hook.... No lie, fry! 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! |

| My telepathy senses the aura of a fairy in that area. Could it be? |
Eastern Fairy Island
The Eastern Fairy Island is an island located on the Great Sea. The entrance to the fairy shell on the island is blocked by a giant boulder, so bombs or Power Bracelets are necessary to get inside. The Great Fairy that resides within will grant Link an upgrade to his Bomb Bag. Interestingly, despite its name, the island is actually in a portion of the Great Sea's northeastern region.
This island is home to a rare Blue ChuChu, and it's also where the Korok Olivio and one of the withered trees can be found.

| Word is, they hold an auction every night over there on Windfall Island. Every night the people gather in the Hall of Wealth to amuse themselves by spending a little money. Ah, the rich! 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. You might just like it! |

| ??? ! !!! I can sense a fairy's telepathy! TI-N-G-LE loves you! Whoa! People are staring! |
Southern Fairy Island
Southern Fairy Island is a small, heart-shaped island located on the Great Sea. The entrance to a shell on the island is blocked, but by using a Fire Arrow or bomb, Link can open the entrance and enter to receive an upgrade to his Bomb Bag from the Great Fairy within. This is the only fairy island Link can warp directly to with the Ballad of Gales melody.
Once Link has bought the Treasure Chart from the expensive Beedle Shop, Link can retrieve a Piece of Heart from the bottom of the sea with the help of the Grappling Hook. Also, after every ship and wall-mounted cannon have been destroyed in every reef, a treasure chest will appear in this island containing Treasure Chart #40.

| Listen up, small fry-this is just between you and me... On Outset Island, buried beneath the black soil...there's some serious treasure. I know it sounds like I'm trying to pull your leg, but I'm serious. Try digging there! |

| Hmm!! Ah!! Sniff sniff!! I smell a fairy!! |
Thorned Fairy Island
Thorned Fairy Island is one of the islands located on the Great Sea. The entrance to the fairy shell is blocked by vines that will only disappear by hitting the three switches with the Skull Hammer. Once inside, Link can receive a Quiver upgrade from the Great Fairy.
A Piece of Heart can be pulled from the bottom of the sea once Link finds and opens a Treasure Chart from the Wind Temple.

| Tell me, small fry, do you have any of them Golden Feathers? I hear those things are the rage with Rito ladies on Dragon Roost Island these days. They just go ga-ga over them! But the thing is, the only way to get a Golden Feather is to defeat one of those bird-monsters... or so they say. Yup! Rito men who have girlfriends sure have tough lots in life, I tell you! |

| Somewhere in the world, there should be a mysterious item that uses magic as a shield. If we had it, we'd be safe even if our ship got shot with a cannon! The peddler who gave us the sail would know about rare items... |
