Goponga Swamp is a location from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. It is a region of Koholint Island.

Goponga Swamp is a large swamp filled with Goponga Flowers, an indigenous strain of plant, some of which block the way to the Bottle Grotto. To destroy all of them, Link must utilize the Bow-Wow that he rescued from the Moblin Cave. Another enemy type found in the area are Cheep-Cheeps, a type of fish that attacks Link by diving out of the swamp.

Etymology Edit

"Goponga" is most likely a pun on the word "Pong", an informal word for an unpleasant smell.
