Ocarina of Time Fairy Fountains
In Ocarina of Time, Link can find a total of 12 Fairy Fountains. Six of which are Great Fairy Fountains. Only the first two Great Fairy Fountains are required to complete the quest, while the remainder of the fountains will allow Link to acquire some upgrades and new abilities. At any point during his quest, Link can revisit a Great Fairy Fountain to fill up both his Life and Magic Meter.
The six regular fairy fountains are filled with fairies that Link can use to heal up, or capture them into an Empty Bottle for later use.
Great Fairy Locations
Location: Death Mountain Trail
Conditions: Acquire Bombs
Reward: The Magic Meter and Spin Attack
Located at the very peak of the Death Mountain Trail. Link will need to have acquired the Bombs from Dodongo's Cavern in order to scale Death Mountain. Right next to Kaepora Gaebora, there is a wall that can blasted open with a Bomb and inside is the Greay Fairy. The Great Fairy will teach you the Spin Attack ability and in the process grant you the Magic Meter. This is a required Great Fairy as you will need magic to use the required magic-based weapons that are later acquired.Location: Hyrule Castle

Reward: Din's Fire
Located on the pathway leading to Hyrule Castle. Reach this area from the Market and then climb up the nearby vines. Jump beyond the gate and you'll find a sign that says Dead End, with a boulder behind it. Blast the boulder and crawl into the Great Fairy Fountain. Link will need to first visit the Great Fairy Fountain on Death Mountain before he can acquire this item. This Great Fairy Fountain is required, as the reward is Din's Fire, which is essential to enter the Shadow Temple.Location: Zora's Fountain
Conditions: Acquire Bombs
Reward: Farore's Wind
Located at the southeast corner of Zora's Fountain, behind Lord Jabu-Jabu. Place a bomb against the brown boulder to explode the entire wall, revealing the Great Fairy Fountain.

This ability even allows Link to warp across dungeons. While it is not essential, it is helpful in quickly navigating through dungeons.
