Barry Island (Welsh: Ynys y Barri) is a peninsula forming part of the town of Barry in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales.

Since the joining of Barry Island to the mainland, it has grown into a traditional seaside with its pleasure park, amusement arcades with the picturesque crescent sandy beach of Whitmore Bay, and inviting promenade and rock pools. With its many other adjacent beaches along its south facing coastline.

The many amusement arcades provide hours of entertainment for the video game or ‘bandit’ enthusiast, with pool and the more traditional amusements also available. Seafront shops with all manner of gifts, tempt the taste buds with ‘Barry Island rock’, candy floss and fish and chips, and even the odd pub and night club with a wide range of accommodation available.
