Kernilis (; ) is a commune in the Finistère department of Brittany in northwestern France.

==Geography== ===Description=== Kernilis is located in the Pays de Léon region, about ten kilometers west of Lesneven. The municipal boundary forms a quadrilateral close to a square, bordered to the south by the valley of the Aber Wrac'h, a small coastal river at this point. Its northern boundary coincides with the route of the D 32, an old Roman road (see below). The village of Kernilis is located at an altitude of 60 meters, with altitudes within the municipal territory ranging from 78 meters in the northeastern part, near Croas-ar-Justiçou, to 6 meters in the southwestern corner, where the Aber Wrac'h leaves the municipal territory. The village of Kernilis is clearly located to the south within the municipal boundaries. The main hamlets are Kerscao, Tréverroc, Kerbrat (Kerbrat-an-Dour and Kerbrat Huella), in the northern part, and Kerlouron, Carman, Kergouesnou and Le Moguer in the southern part of the municipal territory. ===Hydrography=== The commune is located in the Loire-Bretagne basin. It is drained by the Aber Vrac'h and various other small rivers.
