Tahuna is a small rural settlement located 18 km north of Morrinsville. In the Māori language Tahuna means sandbank, likely to refer to the sandbanks along the nearby Piako River, where a Māori settlement started. Tahuna is seen as the upper limit for navigatable travel on the Piako River.[1] The settlement has a primary school, rugby club, lawn bowls, golf club, fuel station, motorcycle shop and a volunteer fire brigade.

Although Tahuna is in the Matamata-Piako District for local government, its representation in national government is within the Coromandel electorate due the abolition of the Piako electorate for the {{NZ election link|2008}}.[2]

There are two marae in the Tahuna area. The Waiti-Raungaunu marae and Paoa meeting house are also associated with the Waikato Tainui hapū of Ngāti Makirangi, and with the iwi of Ngāti Paoa. Hoe o Tainui marae and surrounding settlement is affiliated just with Ngāti Makirangi.[3][4]
