Lake Hylia

What opens it

  • A switch indoors (Lake Hylia): once it is pressed, the water outside Swamp Palace and in its first room changes, and the way in opens.

From the official guides

This area holds Lake Hylia, one of the largest lakes in Hyrule. Once you can swim, search every corner of it. All sorts of things are hidden here.
