The '''Southern Swamp''' is a murky wetland explored in the southern region of [[Woodfall]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Accessed by the [[Road to the Swamp]], the Southern Swamp is the largest landmark in Woodfall, being overlooked by the summit of the similarly named [[Woodfall (Location)|Woodfall]]. In this swamp is mainly home to the [[Deku Scrub]]s who reside within the [[Deku Palace]]. The swamp is also home to the [[Monkey]]s of Termina as well as the Twin sorcerers, [[Twinrova]].  

[[Link]] first enters the swamp when he is tasked with reviving one of the [[Four Giants]]. Due to the menacing work of the [[Skull Kid]], the swamps waters have turned poisonous. Due to this inconvenience Link cannot traverse the waters, however putting on the [[Deku Mask]] allows Link to swiftly hop across the poisonous swamp, from lily pad to lily pad. Link is unable to access the deeper confines of the swamp due to the [[Big Octo]] that blocks the path.  

Link alternatively takes a left into the [[Woods of Mystery]], here Link rescues Koume. Now saved, Koume returns to her role in the [[Swamp Tourist Center]]. Koume runs a boat tour here, which allows Link to safely cross the swamp and the boat takes out the Big Octo, revealing the deeper section of the swamp. This new area of the swamp contains the Deku Palace. After talking to the [[Monkey]], Link takes a shortcut over the swamp and onto [[Woodfall (Location)|Woodfall]]. This is where Link first meets [[Kaepora Gaebora]], the owl from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', and he teaches Link the [[Song of Soaring]].
