Aberporth is a small town on the West Wales coast. It lies at the southern end of Cardigan Bay about seven miles north of Cardigan and ten miles south of New Quay. It is located at 52°13′N 4°55′W / 52.217°N 4.917°W / 52.217; -4.917.

It was once a fishing village, but the main industry is now tourism.

Near Aberporth there is a site for testing rockets of the British military, which is also used for launching civil rockets for atmospheric research.
