A map of the Sky Islands is handy to have in Tears of the Kingdom, particularly if you’re looking for Shrines. So, here are all the maps you’ll need to find Shrines on the Sky Islands in the beloved Zelda sequel.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has a huge world for fans to explore from the vast lands of Hyrule to the hostile Depths and the Sky Islands. There are a lot of Sky Islands in particular in the game but it can be overwhelming if you’re hunting for Shrines throughout them all.

Not only can you find Shrines on Sky Islands, but they can also be used to get more Zonai Devices, and Sage’s Will, so it’s important to explore the areas thoroughly whenever you can in TOTK. If you’re struggling to find your way, however, a map of the floating islands can come in extremely handy.

With that in mind, here are a handful of Sky Island maps you can reference when playing Tears of the Kingdom, including 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.

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.

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?
