Pukearuhe marae is located along the west coast off SH3, roughly 45 km north of New Plymouth. It affiliates to the iwi Ngāti Tama.
The marae connects ancestrally to the waka Tokomaru. It takes its name from the nearby pā at the southern end of Parininihi (the White Cliffs), which has guarded the entrance to Taranaki for many centuries.
