DakuwaqaIn iTaukei tellings across Fiji, Dakuwaqa is a shark deity and ancestral guardian of reefs and certain vanua — feared, petitioned, and still named in living oral history from Beqa to Cakaudrove, not a generic sea monster.PonaturiIn Māori tradition, ponaturi are pale, red-haired sea beings — sometimes called sea fairies — who live beneath the ocean by day, come ashore at night, and die in sunlight, as in the Tāwhaki cycle of revenge for Hemā.
