Porthmadog, originally Portmadoc until 1972 and known locally as Port, is a coastal town and community in the Eifionydd area of Gwynedd, Wales, and the historic county Caernarfonshire. It lies 5 miles (8 km) east of Criccieth, 11 miles (18 km) south-west of Blaenau Ffestiniog, 25 miles (40 km) north of Dolgellau and 20 miles (32 km) south of Caernarfon. The community population was 4,185 in the 2011 census and was put at 4,134 in 2019. It grew in the 19th century as a port for local slate, but as trade declined it continued as a shopping and tourism centre, being close to Snowdonia National Park and the Ffestiniog Railway. The 1987 National Eisteddfod was held there. It includes nearby Borth-y-Gest, Morfa Bychan and Tremadog.

Located in the heart of Snowdonia National Park, Porthmadog offers a unique blend of natural beauty and rich history. This small town on the Welsh coast is known for its stunning views of the nearby mountains, including Mount Snowdon, and its proximity to some of the most beautiful beaches in the region.

One of the town's main attractions is the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways, which takes passengers on a scenic journey through the stunning Snowdonia landscape. You can sit back, relax and enjoy the stunning views as the train winds its way through the countryside, passing through quaint villages and over majestic bridges.
