{{About|Tusker Rock in Wales||Tuskar Rock (disambiguation){{!}}Tuskar Rock}}Tusker Rock (Welsh: Ynys Twsgr), is a rock in the Bristol Channel, about {{convert|2|mi}} west of Ogmore-by-Sea, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. It takes its name from Tuska the Viking, a Dane whose fellow Vikings semi-colonised the Vale of Glamorgan.^[1]

It is fully visible only at low tide, and was formerly a notorious hazard for ships.

Today, the waters around Tusker Rock are a popular diving location.
