Bodferin is a former civil parish in the Welsh county of Gwynedd. It was abolished in 1934, and incorporated into Aberdaron.
John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales (1870-72) describes it as having been "on the coast, 4½ miles N by W of Aberdaron, and 14 WSW of Pwllheli rail station. Post Town, Aberdaron, under Pwllheli. Acres, 511. Real property, £278. Pop., 50. Houses, 12. The living is a perpetual curacy, united with Llaniestyn, in the diocese of Bangor. The church has disappeared; but there are ruins of an ancient chapel."
