Porthkerry (Welsh: Porthceri) is a hamlet in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. It lies on the Bristol Channel coast of South Wales within the community of Rhoose between that village and the town of Barry to the east. It is very close to the end of the runway of Cardiff International Airport. To the east of the hamlet is Porthkerry Country Park which occupies the valley leading down to the coast.
