Morvah is a civil parish and village on the Penwith peninsula in west Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The village is situated approximately eight miles (13 km) west-southwest of St Ives and 5 ¹⁄₂ miles (8.9 km) north-west of Penzance. Morvah parish encompasses the settlements of Chypraze and Rosemergy and is bounded by the parishes of St. Just to the west, Zennor to the north-east, Madron to the south and by the sea in the north. The parish consists of 1,270 acres (5 km²) of land, 1-acre (4,000 m²) of water and 14 acres (57,000 m²) of foreshore.

The small churchtown of Morvah lies along the B3306 road which connects St Ives to the A30 road and consists of housing, an art gallery, a dairy farm and the parish church, St Bridget's. The chancel and nave was rebuilt in 1828, leaving the two-staged, unbuttressed west tower from the 14th-century.

Morvah lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park. The South West Coast Path, which follows the coast of south west England from Somerset to Dorset passes by on the cliffs to the north of Morvah churchtown.
