The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Hints
How do I activate the third statue?
1 of 9: The third statue is not in plain sight, but its guardians will make themselves very visible if you go directly south of the temple (around to the right past the second statue).
2 of 9: Two of the monsters with the sword and shield that you fought last time you were on this island will spring from the water.
3 of 9: Since there are two of them, this can be a fairly tough fight -- it certainly took me a few tries.
4 of 9: The key is to focus on one of them at a time, take one out, then work on the other.
5 of 9: Avoid their flame attacks, and roll to the side when they're about to strike with their swords.
6 of 9: When they have, you have a split-second chance to tap them a couple of times and lay in some attacks of your own.
7 of 9: It may take a couple of tries but it will happen eventually.
8 of 9: Once it has, the third statue will appear.
9 of 9: Rotate it as you did with the previous one so that it faces the door (directly north).
