Goddess Cubes are objects found in Skyward Sword. There are 27 in total, and they each lead to a reward found in the form of Goddess Chests located in The Sky. Link must perform a Skyward Strike on a cube in order to unlock its corresponding chest. This guide shows the locations and rewards for each Goddess Cube, as well as maps showcasing the precise locations.

Goddess Cube Locations

Location: Deep Woods
Reward: Adventure Pouch Upgrade
Goddess Cube #1: Once you reach the Deep Woods and after you've crossed the tightropes, you'll come across Gorko the Goron. This is the first Goddess Cube that you find, so Gorko will give you a rundown of how they work.
Location: Deep Woods
Reward: Piece of Heart
Goddess Cube #2: This cube can be found just outside the Skyview Temple. Use a Skyward Strike to send it to the Sky.
Location: Skyview Temple
Reward: Gold Rupee (300)
Goddess Cube #3: After completing Skyview Temple, jump into the water of the Skyview Spring. Run behind the Goddess Statue platform and you'll find it hiding there. If you missed this cube, don't worry, you can enter the temple again and pass through the boss chamber to get it.
Location: Eldin Volcano
Reward: Small Seed Satchel
Goddess Cube #4: Located right at the start of the Eldin Volcano region. Just walk forward a bit and take the first left and drop down to the lower ledge to find the Goddess Cube.

Goddess Cube #5: After passing the Mogma who teaches you how to use Bomb Flowers, run ahead to the new area, past the Bird Statue. The pathway splits three ways.

Location: Eldin Volcano
Reward: Gold Rupee (300)
Goddess Cube #6: During your first journey through the Eldin Volcano, you'll reach a small volcano. Once you jump down it, tilt the Wiimote to guide your fall and as you drop, you will see a Goddess Cube on the right. Hover over it and use the Sailcloth to glide your way down to the pillar with the cube. If you mess up, simply drop down and take the northern exit (air geyser) to return to the surface, circle around and try again.
Location: Eldin Volcano
Reward: Gold Rupee (300)
Goddess Cube #7: Just to the west of the entrance to the Earth Temple you'll find some soft soil locations on the ground.

Once you are back outside, walk counter-clockwise around the tree for just a bit until you are at the southeast part of the tree. Look down below and you'll see the Goddess Cube.

Alternatively, you can stand on solid ground, get close to the edge, and you should be able to barely reach it (True Master Sword only).
NOTE: If you're playing on Hero Mode, you will have the maximum range Skyward Strike for the entire game, meaning you can technically get this Cube even earlier.
