Polynesian tattoos are now a very popular type of tribal tattoo design. Polynesia refers to a region in the South Pacific which includes many traditional islands and cultures, including Hawaiian, Tahitian, Samoan and Maori among others. Each of these places has it's own culture, beliefs and, of course, tattoo styles.
