The Lanayru Sand Sea is a location from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. It is a sea of Sinksand located where a great body of water (the Ancient Sea, a 'great sea') once existed in the Lanayru Desert. Link uses a Motorboat captained by LD-301N Skipper to traverse the area, as the boat has a built-in Timeshift Stone that transforms the sand near to the boat back into water. The Motorboat can be docked at several locations around the sea, including the Ancient Harbor, Skipper's Retreat, the Shipyard, the Pirate Stronghold, and the Sandship, which is located north of Skipper's Retreat.
