Cei Llydan is an intermediate railway station on the Llanberis Lake Railway (LLR),{{sfn|Yonge |Padgett |Szwenk |2013 |loc=Map 51F}} located in Llanberis, Gwynedd, Wales.{{sfn|Carrington|Rushworth|1973|p=55}}

Most of the LLR was laid around 1970 on part of the trackbed of the closed and lifted Padarn Railway. The line opened between {{rws|Gilfach Ddu (LLR)}} and Cei Llydan on 28 May 1971, being extended northwards to {{rws|Penllyn (LLR)}} in 1972, changing Cei Llydan from a terminus to a through station.{{sfn|Boyd|1986|pp=219-222}} For thirty years {{rws|Gilfach Ddu (LLR)}} was the new line's southern terminus, situated a short distance south of the site of the Padarn Railway's former workmen's station, also named Gilfach Ddu. In 2003 a wholly new extension was opened south westwards, with {{rws|Llanberis (LLR)}} station as the line's new southern terminus. With this extension Gilfach Ddu (LLR) changed from a terminus to a through station.

The line and station primarily serve tourists and railway enthusiasts, with Cei Llydan recommended for picnics and viewing the scenery.[http://www.llanberis.com/lakerailway.html The station and railway, via Llanberis.com][https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJQwuHRCO9o The station and railway, via YouTube]
