Dwarda is a small town in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, 11 kilometres (7 mi) south of the town of Wandering on the Hotham River.

The name is a contraction of nearby Dwardadine Creek, with dwarda being a Noongar name for dingo.

The townsite was first requested by the Wandering Road Board in 1912, with the hope it could become a future terminus for the Hotham Valley Railway, and the townsite, initially called Dampier, was gazetted in 1914.

In 1940–41 a timber mill was built here by JC "Charlie" Tucak, and operated for some years.

[3] The townsite is owned by the Horan family, though most of the buildings were destroyed by arson in the mid-1980s.
