In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Fire Arrows are valuable for high ranged damage and puzzle-solving.
Not only do they double your bow's damage, but shooting Fire Arrows sets your targets on fire. It's the only ranged weapon that can kill a Skulltula from the front, so it's pretty strong. Additionally, you'll need to solve puzzle tasks from a distance.
Here's how to unlock these essential arrows.
How to Get Fire Arrows in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Before trying to unlock Fire Arrows, you'll need to ensure you have the Fairy Bow from the Forest Temple and have completed the Water Temple in Lake Hylia.
If you've completed the Water Temple, head to the largest island in the middle of the lake and interact with the tablet on the southeast side. The tablet reads, "When the lake is full and dawn breaks, release an arrow toward the halo of light."

Now, you'll need to shoot an arrow towards the rising sun. If it isn't daytime yet, use the Sun's Song to change the time. While aiming at the sun, you'll notice a red circle appear around it - this is when you shoot your arrow.
If done correctly, a cutscene will play where an arrow lands in front of you. After the cutscene ends, pick it up. And just like that, you're the proud owner of the Fire Arrows.
