Mask

Zora Mask

Reach Great Bay Coast after opening the westward route with Epona. Mikau is floating offshore. Bring him onto the beach, listen to him, and play the Song of Healing after his collapse. The resulting Zora Mask lets Link take on his form, connecting the coast’s story to the transformation needed for its underwater route.

Get the mask

Reach Great Bay Coast after opening the westward route with Epona. Mikau is floating offshore. Bring him onto the beach, listen to him, and play the Song of Healing after his collapse. The resulting Zora Mask lets Link take on his form, connecting the coast’s story to the transformation needed for its underwater route.

Complete the interaction

Zora Link can dive, walk along the sea floor, swim, launch returning fins and use an electric barrier. Swimming behavior is an important edition difference. The N64 version offers fast swimming directly, while the 3DS remake separates slower movement from the magic-consuming fast-swim barrier. An instruction to swim at maximum speed therefore needs its version context.

Use and rewards

The first major collection task is recovering Lulu’s seven eggs. Four are in the Pirates’ Fortress and three are in Pinnacle Rock. Bring bottles and return eggs to the Marine Research Lab; a single trip is not required if your bottle inventory is small. The Hookshot obtained in the fortress is another key tool, separate from the Zora Mask itself.

Route and edition notes

After all eggs reach the lab, learn the New Wave Bossa Nova and play it for Lulu. That sequence wakes the turtle that carries Link to Great Bay Temple. In the dungeon, use the form to navigate water and pipe routes, then follow the edition-specific Gyorg strategy. The mask is a permanent transformation and is not one of the twenty ordinary masks traded to the Moon Children.
