Kernick (Cornish: Karnek, meaning rocky place) is a settlement in west Cornwall, England, UK. It is a part of the town of Penryn, now a suburb of Falmouth. The name Kernick is a derivative of Cernic or Carnak meaning 'rocky' in Cornish, like Carnac in Brittany.

Kernick is located near Mabe, a small town on the edge of a new urban area. Kernick has thrived as an industrial area since the late 1970s with two industrial parksoandne large industrial estate, with about 100 factories. An Asda supermarket was recently constructed nearby, which has taken much business from the small town shops. Kernick is also thriving as a suburban housing area, with three housing estates in the vicinity, two of which (Littleoaks and Woodland Avenue) have in excess of 200 houses each. There is also another housing estate nearby, and a large area called Greenwood, which has in excess of 500 houses and bungalows. Kernick is also the site of the new Combined Universities in Cornwall (CUC).

Kernick is also a surname; among those who bear this surname is Dudley Kernick, former manager of Hinckley United F.C..
