Ringfad (from Irish: An Rinn Fhada, meaning "the long point or headland") is a townland of 181 acres in County Down, Northern Ireland. It is situated in the civil parish of Ardglass and the historic barony of Lecale Lower.

The name refers to the broad peninsula adjoining Ardglass on the south and forming the eastern side of Coney Island Bay. The point of land at the end of the peninsula is known as Ringfad Point.
