Tudweiliog (or Dweiliog for short) is a small, predominantly Welsh-speaking village and community on the northern coast of the Llŷn Peninsula in the Welsh county of Gwynedd. The population has risen from 801 in 2001 to 970 in 2011.

Agriculture is the main industry in Tudweiliog, with numerous farms both pastoral and arable.

Tourism also plays an important role in the village economy during the summer.

There are numerous campsites in and around Tudweiliog and a Caravan site. There are also a handful of cottages rent and B&Bs available to stay at. The local public house also provides a B&B service.

The village has a post office (which also functions as a village store), village hall, public house (called 'The Lion Hotel'), smithy, parish church, Nonconformist chapel and a primary school, which celebrated its centenary in 2007.
