South Wales Police (Welsh: Heddlu De Cymru) is one of the four Home Office police forces in Wales. Its headquarters are based in Bridgend.

The force was formed in 1968 by a merger of the Glamorgan Constabulary along with the borough forces for Cardiff, Swansea and Merthyr Tydfil. In 1974, with the reorganization of local government, the force's area was exp handed to cover the newly-created Mid Glamorgan, South Glamorgan and West Glamorgan.

In further local government reorganization in 1996 the force area lost the Rhymney Valley area to Gwent Police. Today it covers the principle areas of Bridgend, Cardiff, Merthyr Tydfil, Neath Port Talbot, Rhondda Cynon Taff, Swansea and the Vale of Glamorgan — most of the traditional county of Glamorgan.

Glamorgan Constabulary had itself been established in 1841. A separate Neath borough police existed until 1947.

Under proposals made by the Home Secretary on February 6, 2006, the force would merge with North Wales Police, Gwent Police and Dyfed-Powys Police, to form a single strategic force for all of Wales

The current Chief Constable is Barbara Wilding QPM, CBE, CCML.
