Marin is a teenage girl who bears slight resemblance to the [[Princess Zelda]] from ''A Link to the Past''; this fact is noted by Link, who mistakes Marin for her upon first waking up. Marin possesses long orange hair that reaches down to her waist, in which she keeps a red hibiscus flower for decoration. Artwork for ''Link's Awakening'' and its remakes depict Marin with solid black pupils in her eyes, though ''Hyrule Warriors'' instead gave her orange eyes. She wears a light blue dress with dark blue trim - artwork for ''Link's Awakening'' and her ''Hyrule Warriors'' design also include golden accents embroidered within and around such trim. Marin also wears a red diamond-shaped pendant attached to a gold chain around her neck, a silver bracelet on her left wrist, and a thick pink ribbon around her waist. In artwork for ''Link's Awakening'' and in ''Hyrule Warriors'' Marin wears fancy sandals with a brown ribbon-like design and darker brown soles; the ribbon-like design around her ankles is changed to pink in artwork for ''Link's Awakening DX'', while her sandals are changed to a much simpler design for the [[Nintendo Switch]] remake of ''Link's Awakening''.

In Link's Awakening, Marin is a teenage girl with red hair. She is almost always seen wearing a pale blue dress with dark blue and gold stripes around the sleeves and hem of the dress.

— Marin, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

Marin is a character from The Legend of Zelda series. A young girl who resides in Mabe Village, Marin is the first to discover Link after he washes up on the shore of Koholint Island at the beginning of Link's Awakening. She is a songstress who dreams of becoming a seagull.

Throughout the duration of Link's Awakening Marin remains near her home singing the Ballad of the Wind Fish, though does sometimes end up travelling alongside the Hylian as he explores Koholint Island. Near the end of the game Marin is kidnapped by monsters while singing to the Wind Fish's Egg and can be found on a rotting segment of a bridge across Tal Tal Heights, where she admits to Link that she is afraid of heights.
