The Forest Haven, comprised of two main islands, is found in The Wind Waker. It is home to the Koroks, who once took humanoid form and were called Kokiri. They are watched over and protected by the Great Deku Tree. The main island takes the form of an enormous dead tree trunk, out of which flows a stream. Link must traverse the stream, defeating Boko Babas and Octoroks, in order to enter the island. The Forbidden Woods are located on the second-largest island, and the Nintendo Gallery can be found hidden on a smaller island.

Upon first arriving at Forest Haven, Link finds the Deku Tree infested with ChuChus. Once they are defeated and the Deku Tree restored, the place becomes serene and calming. The water flowing from inside the Forest Haven has special purity, and it may be bottled and used to invigorate the Korok's saplings. However, this purity does have a time limit, and is present only in the water found within the walls of the tree. Hovering above the water can be found several fireflies, which may be bottled and used in the creation of the Deluxe Picto Box. The interior of the island contains many Baba Buds which Link must use to reach the highest branches of the Great Deku Tree, where he will be rewarded with the Deku Leaf, a vital tool in reaching and exploring the nearby Forbidden Woods.

The distinctive, lilting theme heard at the Forest Haven is similar to Saria's Song. It is theorised that the Forest Haven may be formed from the mountain tops of Kokiri Forest, or even the remains of the Great Deku Tree from Ocarina of Time on the outside, with the younger sprouting Deku Tree seen in Ocarina of Time as an adult, within the Forest Haven itself.

Fishman's hint on Forest Haven:
Just a wee bit north of this island, I've sometimes seen a merchant of incredible girth with a monstrous pack on his back. Now, what could he be doing on that lonely little isle? I tell you, there are some strange folk in the world, fry...
