There are a few things you need to know about the Great Sea - and one of them is about your boat! After clearing the fog, you can return to Toad Town to purchase an engine upgrade for your ship. It's only 5 coins and I highly recommend grabbing them. You can earn tons of money in the Great Sea by completing a Battle Trial in the lower left corner of the map. You can also find tons of treasures by chatting with toads or saving toads hidden on each island.
Below I will walk you through how to reach Diamond Island and map all the other islands on the map.
