*In the room where Link fights Big Octo, if he attempts to enter the room without Ruto, he cannot get to the Zora Sapphire on his own. He must throw Ruto into the circle to get it.

*A similar dungeon called [[Jabu-Jabu's Belly]] can be found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]''.
*In the first room after fighting the [[Big Octo]], there is a ramp to the right. If the player changes the camera angle so that it goes through the wall for a few seconds, a [[Hookshot]] target can be seen.

*This is the only dungeon in the game where Link is accompanied by another character ([[Princess Ruto]]) when he is warping to the dungeon's exit after defeating a boss. Interestingly, it's unknown how she arrived there, since she was taken to the '''second''' floor after taking the sacred Sapphire, and the boss's arena is in the '''first''' floor.
