A '''Cyclone''' is an object appearing in {{TWW}} and {{PH}}. Although they are harmless in ''The Wind Waker'', touching a cyclone in ''Phantom Hourglass'' causes damage the [[S.S. Linebeck]]. They can only be found while out in the sea.

In {{TWW}}, the deity [[Cyclos]] harnesses the power of cyclones.

Smaller cyclones called [[Whirlwind (Object)|Whirlwinds]] can also be found throughout the sea. They are harmless and, if Link's ship runs into one of them, it will cause the [[King of Red Lions]] to change his direction. Some of these Whirlwinds will allow Link to gain altitude if he approaches them while floating with the [[Deku Leaf]], mostly in the [[Bird-Man Contest]].

In {{PH}}, the smaller cyclones hurt Link's ship if he sails into them. They can be destroyed if Link shoots them with his [[cannon]] two times.
In {{PH}}, the smaller cyclones are hard to see at times, which is their only real strength. They have no attacks and can only hurt Link's ship if he sails into them. They can be destroyed if Link shoots them with his cannon two times.
The bigger cyclones are rarer to find and mostly serve as obstacles to impede Link from accessing certain islands. To make the cyclones disappear, Link has to complete certain dungeons or obtain specific items, such as obtaining the [[Regal Necklace]] to eradicate the cyclone preventing entrance to the [[Isle of Ruins]]. If Link obtains the [[Cyclone Slate]] and has the necessary symbols from the [[Golden Frog]]s, the young hero can ride a cyclone to warp to a different sector of the [[World of the Ocean King]] by drawing the correspondent symbol.
