Strangford (from Old Norse Strangr fjörðr, meaning "strong sea-inlet")[3][4] is a small village at the mouth of Strangford Lough, on the Lecale peninsula in County Down, Northern Ireland.

It had a population of 475 at the 2001 census.

On the other side of the lough is Portaferry on the Ards Peninsula, and there is a ferry service between the two villages.

[5] The village has a small harbour, which is overlooked by rows of 19th-century cottages and a fine Georgian terrace.
