The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time

Gold Skulltula Locations

Gerudo Fortress

Adult Link:

51. In the Horse Archery area, it's on one of the tall targets, you, obviously, need the LongShot. Also note that you would have had to save all four carpenters, since you can't get up there before then (dumb guards...).
52. If you've explored around the Fortrees, you should have found this one by now. An easy way to get over there to actually collect the token it drops is to use the Hoverboots.

Haunted Wasterland

Adult Link:

53. Once you get to the stone structure where your Poe Guide is, go around to the side and fall down the hole. At the bottom of the tunnel is, yes you guessed it, a Skulltula! Unlike most, you can look for this in the middle of the day. Strange...

Desert Colossus

Child Link:

54. There is some soft soil near the entrance to the Spirit Temple.

Adult Link:

55. On a big old boulder near the Fairy Fountain (ride the magical bean platform to get there).
56. On a palm tree; use the HookShot to collect it.

(The rest are dungeons. Keep in mind that you can see if you've collected all the Skulltulas in the particular dungeon by checking the map. If there is a Golden Skulltula Icon at the top, you have.)

Deku Tree Dungeon

Child Link:

57. In the room where you press the switch to raise three platforms (you get the Compass here), one of the platforms leads to a small alcove. It's in there. Just don't be too quick to jump, a Giant Skulltula will fall from above, so if you do, you'll be knocked down!
58. After breaking the first spider web you'll be in a water room. If you try to climb out on the vines, you'll notice this one, which is also on the ivy. Use the Slingshot to kill it, then climb the vines to collect the token.
59. In the same room as above, there is a hole with bars covering it, there it is! You don't need the Boomerang to collect the token, as a lot of people have sad. Just jump from the nearby platform (the one where you press the switch to make the nearby torch light).
60. In one room you will have to torch a spider web where you will then follow a small tunnel to the highest platform from the water room (see above). One of the spiderwebs seems to go with a dead-end, with a single Deku Baba. But, the dead-end has a strange looking wall...use a bomb and...WAHOO! There you go. Use the Boomerang to collect the token it leaves behind.

Dodongo's Cavern

Child Link:

61. In the hall just right of the main room (area where you must shove a statue onto a switch to keep it down) are several Dodongo Larvas...and an odd part of the wall. Before collecting the Bomb Bag, kill a Larva near the wall and hen it dies it will blow it away. Obviously, if you have bombs it's a bit easier. Inside is a room with an Armos Statue; look behind it for this tricky spider.
62. Remember where you had to blow away a bunch of bombs at once to form a series of stairs to an above area? Same room, up the stairs, on some vines. That was pretty simple...
63. After going through the Giant Dodongo Head, go through the tunnel, climb the blocks...WAIT! Look on the wall, to your right. There should be a strange part there, bomb it to reveal a door. Inside is an Armos, kill it and it will be behind it.
64. *GASP* This one actually requires EFFORT! First off, make sure everything is reset in this dungeon (just leave and come back in). Then, in the main room, hop on the elevator platform and go through the door there. Now drop down to the switchblade maze, and climb up the ladder (NOT the one with the blue block). Go across the bridge...now we should be in the room where you had to bomb the pillar to make some stairs...but on the wrong side! Follow the path left, climb the vines against the pillar, and you'll find a Skullula. Kill it, then grab the token with your Boomerang. This took me ages to figure out...

Adult Link:

65. In the hallway with Larva Dodongos, the area where you had to push a statue onto a switch to make it stay down, when Navi flies up to a ledge and turns green, but nothing is there, play the Scarecrow's Song and use Pierre and the HookShot to get up there. I believe you can take it from there...

Lord Jabu-Jabu's Belly

Child Link:

66. In the room with a switch that raises the water, it's on some vines. Kill it with the Slingshot and then climb up to retrieve it. If you missed this one, I am frightened.
67. After falling don the hole that the green tentacle was covering, look on the wall, you'll need the Boomerang.
68. The same as above, except only a few feet away, on the same wall.
69. All hail 69! In the room before the boss, on some vines. Just kill it with the Slingshot and then collect it...

Forest Temple

Adult Link:

70. In the first room, on the vines. Just use your HookShot to defeat it, then climb up to get the token.
71. In the main room (with the four torches and an elevator to the Boss Door), on the wall. Hard to miss!
72. In the plant room where you fell down a well to retrieve a key, you've probably spotted a Golden Skulltula on a wall, but it's just out of reach! The hard way is to come back with the Longshot. The easy way is to use the small chest that is up there as an HookShot target and oull yourself up there!
73. Basically, look over the balcony in one of the plant rooms, you'll spot a ledge that can only be reached by dropping down. Voila! Skulltula!
74. In the final room before the Boss Door, where you rotate the wall, it will be in the aclove with a Giant Skulltula (go inside and scan the wall). Use the HookShot to get it.
