Harbor Town of Mido is a town located in Western Hyrule in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. It is in a desert, just north of the King's Tomb, and near the dock which is the gateway to Eastern Hyrule. The hammer must be obtained in order to clear the boulders that obstruct the path to the Harbor Town of Mido. The Kokiri, Mido, from Ocarina of Time, is named after this town.

Inside one of Mido's houses lives a powerful knight who teaches Link the Downward Thrust move. However, the main door is locked from the inside, so Link uses the Jump Spell to reach the second story of the house and enters through its open door. The knight at the end of the basement passes on Link's new skill upon talking to him.[1]

An elderly woman also approaches Link and asks for his help in saving her sick daughter.[2] The Water of Life, which is needed to recuperate the health of the mother's child, is found in a cave just west of the Midoro Palace blocked by a boulder. After returning the medicine to the old woman, she rewards Link by allowing him inside her house and letting the young hero meet an Old Man, who teaches him the Fairy Spell in return.[3][4]
