 The main landmass of Spira is surrounded by small islands , including : Besaid , a tropical town serving as the origin of Yuna 's pilgrimage ; Kilika , a larger island featuring dense jungles and numerous conflicts during the games ; and the desert island of Bikanel , which is also the location of the Al Bhed 's headquarters — " Home " . The ruins of Baaj Temple are on an island to the south of the Spira mainland ; this is where Tidus begins his journey in Spira .
