Where To Buy the Opal Earrings in Tears of the Kingdom

Fortunately, you only need to travel to Gerudo Town of the Gerudo Desert to get the Opal Earrings in TotK. Link can reach the town quickly from the teleportation tower in the region. Afterward, players can glide to the plaza of the desert town. If you have not yet unlocked the tower, we recommend our guide to complete Soryotanog Shrine. This step will ease the way to the other side of Hyrule, where the desert is.
