The Great Sea holds countless secrets beneath its waves. To truly master navigation and uncover every hidden treasure, you'll need to collect all 49 Sea Charts (including the Great Sea Chart and the 8 Triforce Charts). Each chart often leads to a valuable treasure, including Rupees, Magic Jars, or even Pieces of Heart. Remember to use the Treasure Chart item to pinpoint the exact location of sunken chests.

Regular Sea Charts (40 Total)
These charts lead to various treasures, including Rupees, Magic Jars, and sometimes even Pieces of Heart. They are obtained from several sources:
- Dungeon Chests: Many dungeons contain Treasure Charts as rewards for solving puzzles or defeating mini-bosses.
- Defeating Enemies: Certain powerful enemies (e.g., Big Octos, Gyorgs, Wizzrobes) sometimes drop Treasure Charts.
- Mini-Games: Winning certain mini-games (e.g., Boating Course, Flight Control Platform) can reward you with charts.
- Side Quests: Completing specific side quests for NPCs can sometimes yield a Treasure Chart.
- Beating Reefs: Clearing out all cannons on the various "Eye Reef" islands (e.g., Three-Eye Reef, Four-Eye Reef) often rewards a chart.
- Island Exploration: Some charts are simply found in chests on islands, sometimes requiring bombs, the Hookshot, or the Deku Leaf to reach.
Strategy for Sunken Treasure: Once you have a deciphered Triforce Chart or a regular Treasure Chart, sail to the marked sector on your Sea Chart. A glowing light will indicate the exact spot. Equip your Grappling Hook and use it to retrieve the chest from the seabed. Be prepared for potential enemies like Octoroks or Kargarocs that might appear when you stop your boat.
