Jaunciems (Livonian: Ūžkilā) is a small village in the Tārgale Parish of Ventspils Municipality in the Courland region of Latvia. It is one of the twelve Livonian villages on Līvõd rānda - the Livonian Coast. Both the Latvian and Livonian names mean "new village".

Most homes in the village are not inhabited year-round after the Livonian Coast was made into a closed border area of the Iron Curtain for fifty years during the Soviet occupation of Latvia.
