Abergele (/æbɜːrˈɡɛlɪ/; Welsh: [ˌabɛrˈɡɛlɛ]; ⓘ) is a market town and community, situated on the north coast of Wales between the holiday resorts of Colwyn Bay and Rhyl, in Conwy County Borough and in the historic county of Denbighshire. Its northern suburb of Pensarn lies on the Irish Sea coast. Abergele and Pensarn railway station serves both resorts.
