Getting to the Wind Temple
Teleport to Windfall Island and set sail north to find the island with the wind spout. Use the Iron Boots to get to the source of the wind and then smash it with the Skull Hammer. Enter the cave and learn the song that is on the stone tablet - the Wind God's Aria.
After the cutscene head back to the King of Red Lions and teleport to the Forest Haven located at F6 on the Sea Chart. Travel to the top of the ledge near the top of the waterfall and jump down into the right waterfall - the one with the music notes coming out of it.
Speak with Makar and teach him the Wind God's Aria. After learning the song - Makar will gain the knowledge that he is the sage of the Wind Temple. Now take Makar to the island located at D1 on the Sea Chart. Use the Wind Waker to play the Wind God's Aria near the stone tablet to open the entrance to the Wind Temple.
Wind Temple
Take Makar inside the temple and through the first door. In this room should be two cyclones along with a couple switches resembling springs. Take control of Makar and travel to the opposite side of the room pass the cyclones. Fly up and land on the ledge to find a switch that you must step on - making the cyclones cease.
Now take control of Link once more and climb onto any of the spring switches. Use the Iron Boot to weight it down and then unequip them to spring into the air - making sure to have the Deku Leaf ready so that you can float across to the other side of the room onto the ledge with Makar.
Grab Makar and travel through the door nearby. Use the Bow to stun the enemies in this room and kill them with the sword. Use the Deku Leaf on the propeller to move the obstacle out of the pathway. Pick up Makar and run to the other side of the room where the two soil patches are located.
Use Makar to plant seeds in both of the soil patches in order to unlock the door forward. In the next room take control of Makar and then fly over to each of the ledges to plant seeds in all of the patches of soil. The door forward will get unlocked as well as Makar getting grabbed by a Floormaster.
Head through the door to the right of the room and Makar will shout at you. Walk over and speak with Makar to learn that you can free him by becoming as heavy as the Great Deku Tree. Go through the door opposite of the one you entered and kill off the Peahats.

Jump and float towards the west section of the room through the gate making sure to use the whirlwind to land on the next gate that Link comes across. Now use the next whirlwind to make it to the ledge with the Wizzrobe. Kill it and then enter the door to find a switch.
Use the Iron Boots to press the switch and then use the Skull Hammer to break the wood on top of the blue cauldron. Now use the Deku Leaf to float down into the newly opened area and over to the chest that contains the Compass.
