'''Newport Bay''' ([[Welsh language|Welsh]]: ''Bae Trefdraeth'') is a bay on a section of the north [[Pembrokeshire]] coast, [[Wales]] which is within the [[Pembrokeshire Coast National Park]]. Fronting onto the much larger [[Cardigan Bay]], it stretches from [[Dinas Island]] (actually a peninsula) to the headland of Pen-y-bal, two miles to the east. Several smaller inlets pierce its southern shore whilst in the southeast it is backed by Newport Sands, a beach which extends across the mouth of the [[River Nevern]] (Welsh: ''Afon Nyfer'') estuary, immediately south of which is the village of [[Newport, Pembrokeshire|Newport]]. The hamlet of [[Cwm-yr-Eglwys]] is sited at the southwest corner of the bay. Newport Links Golf Club extends across the dune system at the east side of the bay. There is a waterfall known as Pen Pistyll just to its north where a stream drops to the beach.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>

The [[Pembrokeshire Coast Path]], itself a part of the longer [[Wales Coast Path]] runs around the bay, taking a detour inland at the estuary to cross using the lowermost road bridge.
