Talsarnau is a small village and community in Gwynedd, Wales, sitting beside the estuary of the Afon Dwyryd with open views towards Snowdonia and the coast. It has a railway station on the Cambrian Coast Line, providing rural links to nearby towns such as Harlech and Porthmadog.
The village combines traditional farming and a close-knit Welsh-speaking community with a modest tourism economy - walkers, birdwatchers and visitors seeking coastal scenery are drawn by the wildlife-rich estuary and easy access to mountains and beaches. Historically the estuary helped move slate and goods to the coast, and today the mix of cottages, holiday lets and small local businesses maintains a quiet, rural character.
