How the polynesian wayfinders navigate the pacific ocean

How did the polynesians navigate without modern day technology? Polynesian wayfinders navigated with Stars (north star and the southern cross) a large amount of clouds to find mountainous islands or some clouds to reflect lagoons, flight patterns of birds, debris, fish, and vegetation.

The navigators used stars to find north and south. The north star was a permanent star that could be seen at night. The southern cross was also a permanent cluster of stars that was close to the direction of the south.

The navigators used clouds to find mountainous islands. If there is a large amount of clouds in that area, it is often above a mountainous island. To find lagoons. lagoons reflect off the underside of some clouds.

The navigators used birds to find islands since birds can’t go that far away from land so you can use their flight patterns to find islands. They also used fish and what type of fish they were. Debris and vegetation also helped them navigate to islands.

In conclusion the polynesians used the north star and the southern cross to find south and north. They also use clouds to find islands. Lastly they used birds to find landmasses. In 2017 a voyage using these techniques successfully sailed across the world. Do you think you could do that?
