The general shape of this tattoo is a manta, symbolic of freedom and harmony, with a turtle inside for family, that incorporates a Marquesan cross and a sun (balance, joy and eternity).
On the sides of the turtle there are a lizard (good luck) and a row of birds (travel, higher perspective) with fish for prosperity.
The tiki on the tips of the wings are for protection.
