Marco is a settlement in the Stratford District and the Taranaki Region, in the western North Island of New Zealand. It is located to the northeast of Whangamomona on State Highway 43. The Whangamomona River flows through the area. The Stratford - Okahukura railway line passes to the northwest of the settlement. The settlement is named from Marco Road, which runs a short distance to the northwest. The road was named after a dog owned by the district surveyor, Mr Sladden. Marco was killed in the middle of the road line by a huge boar while he and his master were pig hunting.
