There’s a huge amount for players to explore in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom — from Hyrule, the Depths, and the Sky Islands. With such a massive map in the game, however, it can be tricky to navigate the world and find everything you’re looking for.
Sky Islands are extremely handy as they can cut down your traveling time, and they also provide you with Sage’s Will and Zonai Devices. There are plenty of these islands to visit in the game, and we’ve got a rundown of them all right here.
So, here are map details for the Sky Islands in Tears of the Kingdom, as well as some useful Shrine locations.
What are Sky Island Shrines in Tears of the Kingdom?
Shrines are extremely useful in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and should be accessed whenever you come across one or whenever you fancy searching.
Just like regular Shrines, the Sky Islands also feature them. It’s here where you can solve puzzles, fight Zonai Constructs, and gain Light of Blessings, which will be the primary material to update your Heart Container and Stamina Vessels.
On top of this, once discovered, you can fast travel to their location meaning the more you find, the easier it is to traverse the Sky Islands.
Tears of the Kingdom: Where to find Shrines in the Sky Island
These are just some of the Shrines locations in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s Sky Islands, as there are tons to find.
Below, we’ve detailed a little more about where you can find some of those Shrines:
- Eldin and North Hyrule Shrine locations
- Necluda and Thunderhead Isles Shrine locations
- North Necluda and South Lanayru Shrine locations
- Great Sky Island and South Hyrule Shrine locations
- Faron and other smaller islands’ Shrine locations
Eldin and North Hyrule Shrine locations
There’s practically one on each major island in this section so head over to South Eldin, North Hyrule, and just below Sokkala for five handy Shrines.
Necluda and Thunderhead Isles Shrine locations
West Necluda is relatively bare in terms of landmarks, but the center of Necluda and the Thunderhead Isles nearby have three handy Shrines in total. Just make sure you collect the two available on Thunderhead Isles
North Necluda and South Lanayru Shrine locations
The Great Sky Island has tons of Shrines to find, and a more detailed map is below. Other than that, head over to the North Necluda and South Lanayru for a Shrine each. Then we recommend heading west straight to Great Sky Island for Shrines galore.
Great Sky Island and South Hyrule Shrine locations
South Hyrule has one shrine on its island but Great Sky Island has four, with one on the north, east, south, and west side of the island. Getting hold of these makes this island so much easier to traverse in the long run.
Faron and other smaller islands’ Shrine locations
Other than the larger islands, you can find two Shrines on Faron, one on Necluda, and tons more dotted around the map itself. We recommend heading to these islands and then going through each location and exploring further. Who knows what you might find?
