The village is located along the south coast of the Ranfjorden, about {{convert|10|km}} west of the village of Hemnesberget. The village surrounds the Bardalselva river which flows into the fjord. Bardal Church was built in 1887 on a hill near the mouth of the river. The Bardal area was historically part of both Nesna Municipality (to the north) and Hemnes Municipality (to the east), but it became part of Leirfjord Municipality in 1964.{{Cite web |last=Jukvam |first=Dag |year=1999 |title=Historisk oversikt over endringer i kommune- og fylkesinndelingen |url=http://www.ssb.no/emner/00/90/rapp_9913/rapp_9913.pdf |publisher=Statistisk sentralbyrå |language=Norwegian}}
