Tingle Island is one of the many [[Ballad of Gales]] [[warp]] locations.

[[Tingle's Tower]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'' looks similar to the tower on Tingle island.
A [[Piece of Heart]] can be retrieved from the bottom of the sea by defeating a [[Big Octo]] located near this Island.


==Trivia==
==Nomenclature==
*Knuckle's statue in the Nintendo Gallery suggests that there is an art studio atop Tingle Tower,<ref>{{Cite|He finished carving Tingle Tower when he was ten years old. The head is his studio.|[[Nintendo Gallery]] figurine description|TWW}}</ref> even though no such room can be found there. However, the studio actually exists in the game data, but it is unused.<ref>[http://tcrf.net/The_Legend_of_Zelda:_The_Wind_Waker/Unused_Rooms#tincle The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker/Unused Rooms - The Cutting Room Floor]</ref> Strangely, when loaded, the walls, floor, and ceiling of the room use the same texture as the easel (a crude drawing of a man and an ''Ocarina of Time''-styled fairy), clearly indicating that it is unfinished. It was likely scrapped due to time constraints.
