Baruc ward encompasses the coastal town of Barry and its immediate surrounding areas. The district includes Barry Island, a peninsula known for its extensive sandy beach and traditional seaside amenities.

A prominent feature is the Barry War Museum, housed in a restored wartime hut complex. The area's geography is defined by the Bristol Channel, with coastal paths offering views across the water. Residential streets are a mix of housing types, from Victorian terraces near the old town centre to more modern developments further inland.
