Ventry (Ceann Trá in Irish) is a village in County Kerry, Ireland. Located on the Dingle Peninsula, some 7 km west of Dingle town, the tiny village of Ventry was once the main port of the peninsula.

6 km west of Ventry are the ruins of Dunbeg (An Dún Beag), an Iron Age promontory fort located on the edge of a steep cliff. Close to Dunbeg is Kilvicadownig, home to other archeologial ruins, including examples of the beehive house and the grave of Caol or Cháil Mic Crimthainn, the last to die in the Battle of Ventry from the well-known Fenian Cycle myths.

Ventry is home to Páidí Ó Sé, footballer.
