If Link has 500 Rupees to spare, he should ask for the Flippers. After he receives the Flippers, Link will be able to swim in even the deepest of water. Buy them as soon as possible."
The Flippers in A Link to the Past are known as the Zora's Flippers. Zora's Flippers can be bought at the remarkable price of 500 rupees at Zora's Waterfall.

Pressing the A button allows him to briefly paddle faster, and pressing B allows him to dive. In some locations, items such as Pieces of Heart can be found underwater.
