Template:Enemy Whirlpools are recurring elements in the Zelda series
Characteristics and Weaknesses
A Link to the Past
Whirlpools are first seen in Template:ALTTP, known as Whirlpool Waterways and are scattered throughout Hyrule. Link may use certain Whirlpools to Warp to different areas in Hyrule. Whirlpools also indicate the surfacing of River Zoras from bodies of water.
Ocarina of Time
Whirlpools appear in the Water Temple of Template:OOT, though they were known as Vortexes.[1] They pull in nearby water and attempt to suck Link in with it.
Oracle of Ages
Whirlpools appear in the Sea of Storms in Template:OOA. They are impassible barriers that will swallow Link whole if he attempts to cross them. The only means of passing them is through an underwater entrance in the past.
Four Swords
Whirlpools appear in the Sea of Trees in Four Swords. If Link falls into one, he will drown and receive two Hearts of damage before resurfacing on dry land.
The Wind Waker
Whirlpools are found all over the Great Sea in The Wind Waker. Whirlpools form around various obstacles, such as the barrier to Jabun's cave on Outset Island or when water is displaced from Big Octos surfacing. Whenever they appear, Link must complete the task at hand within a timely manner or he will be swallowed by the Whirlpool. Entering a Whirlpool in The Wind Waker causes the weather to become stormy until the Whirlpool disappears.
Four Swords Adventures
Whirlpools appear in Four Swords Adventures, where they suck the Links down into small, underwater caverns.
Phantom Hourglass
In Phantom Hourglass, Whirlpools only appear as miniature varieties that can damage the S.S. Linebeck. Once Link obtains the Cannon, he can destroy the Whirlpools with the cannonballs.
