Islet Cave is an optional dungeon featured in Golden Sun: The Lost Age. It becomes accessible during the arc of the game in which Felix's party sails the Eastern Sea searching for pieces of the Trident needed to pass into the Sea of Time. Islet Cave is hidden in Sea of Time Islet, located southeast of the Sea of Time, but it can only be accessed after the party has earned the Sand Psynergy from completing Gaia Rock; this is because Sand is needed to reach one of the NPCs that take part in a chain of rare item trades spanning various islets. The last item in this sequence is the Li'l Turtle, which is given to the turtle living at Sea of Time Islet so that it will voluntarily ferry Felix to Islet Cave and back. Unlocking the earlier portion of this short dungeon allows the player to collect the Venus Djinni Meld, but a deeper portion of it can only be reached by using the Teleport Psynergy — found near the end of the game — on a "Teleport pad" that brings the party to a long, underground path. Another Djinni, the Mercury Djinni Serac, can be collected along the way to the end of the path, and the optional boss Sentinel guards the Catastrophe summon tablet at the end of the hallway. The underground hallway is also the best spot for endgame level-grinding because the party can randomly fight Wonder Birds that award over 8,000 experience when felled.
