Rafts are recurring items and objects in The Legend of Zelda series. They are used by Link to travel across large bodies of water, like a lake.[1]

The Legend of Zelda

Raft sprite from The Legend of Zelda

The only use of the Raft in The Legend of Zelda is to travel across large bodies of water to reach the other side. The Raft is found in the third dungeon of The Legend of Zelda, Level 3: The Manji; and in Level 4 of the Second Quest. It can only be used from docks.

In the First Quest, there are only two of these:

  • The Raft is required to reach Level 4: The Snake, as it is found on a little island that is found in the middle of the large lake in the middle of Hyrule. If Link walks up to the dock in the screen right below the dungeon, he can walk off and the Raft automatically takes off and sends Link to the entrance to The Snake.
  • On the other side of Hyrule, there is also a small island that is seemingly unreachable. However, Link can use his Raft again and he is sent right to this island. On this island, there is an entrance to a cave that looks very much like a dungeon. Inside, the Old Man offers Link a Heart Container and a 2nd Potion. He says to choose whichever one Link wants.[2] This is one of four of such locations.

The Adventure of Link

Raft sprite from The Adventure of Link

The Raft is found inside the Island Palace. Once acquired, Link can travel to Eastern Hyrule via the dock near the Harbor Town of Mido. This is the Raft's only use in The Adventure of Link.

Link's Awakening

Raft sprite from Link's Awakening (Game Boy)

Link can hire a raft from the Raft Shop to negotiate the Rapids Ride in the east of Koholint Island. During the ride, jumping from the raft at the right time can gain him the floating items including Magic Powder, rupees, hearts, arrows and bombs. He can disembark at stairs out of the water to obtain items on islands he passes by.
