Dyffryn Ardudwy is a compact coastal ward in Gwynedd, Wales, set on the shores of Cardigan Bay between Harlech and Barmouth. The landscape is a striking mix of sandy beaches and dune systems by the sea, with the hills of Snowdonia rising not far inland; the area is served by its own stop on the Cambrian Coast railway, making it popular with walkers and coastal travellers.

Locally the economy leans on tourism, holiday accommodation and traditional farming, while a strong community life revolves around the village hall, pubs and small shops. The locality also has a long human history with visible traces of earlier settlements on the surrounding slopes, and its combination of coastal scenery and easy access to mountain walking gives it a quietly attractive character for visitors and residents alike.
