Talacre is a village in Flintshire on the North Wales Coast with large Holiday Caravan parks adjacent. It is near Point of Ayr on the west side of the River Dee estuary and has a sandy beach with dunes. The hills of the Clwydian Range behind the village form the eastern boundary of the Vale of Clwyd.

The village is often used as part of Paul O'Grady's comedy act, telling stories of how he spent many summers "Stuck in a four berth caravan in Talacre", and is therefore now part of popular culture as a famous typically British seaside holiday resort

The village is probably most popular for the lighthouse on the near beach, and the Talacre Beach Caravan Park. It is near beach walk away from the Presthaven sands holiday park. This is the place to go for a romantic couple.
