Which indigenous community is known for its traditional navigation skills in the Pacific?

The Polynesians

The Polynesians, remarkable navigators and explorers, populated a vast triangle in the Pacific Ocean, including Hawaii, Easter Island, and New Zealand, using only the stars, ocean currents, and bird behavior as guides. Their ability to traverse vast expanses of open ocean in double-hulled canoes without modern navigational instruments demonstrates a deep understanding of nature and the sea. This navigation tradition, after nearly disappearing, is experiencing a revival, symbolizing the resilience and cultural renewal of the Polynesian peoples.
