Porthdinllaen (sometimes Porth Dinllaen in English) is a small coastal village on the Llŷn Peninsula in the Dwyfor area of Gwynedd, Wales, built on a small promontory, and historically in Caernarfonshire. It is near the larger village of Morfa Nefyn.

It has been owned by the National Trust since 1994. With views across to Yr Eifl and Snowdonia, Porthdinllaen, with Nefyn and Morfa Nefyn, forms a bay. There are only about two dozen buildings at Porthdinllaen, with the Tŷ Coch Inn at the centre of the village.
