The best resource for that sort of question is Google:
http://www.google.com/
When asked about "Polynesian mythology":
http://www.google.com/search?q=polynesian%20mythology
It'll turn up things like:
http://www.pantheon.org/areas/mythology/oceania/polynesian/
http://www.blackmask.com/books27c/polynesianmyth.htm
http://www.janeresture.com/polynesia_myths/
http://dmoz.org/Arts/Literature/Myths_and_Folktales/Myths/Oceanic/
and so on.
Enjoy!
