Problem to be solved: to provide an actuator and a haptic device capable of achieving both miniaturization and increased driving force.In the actuator 1, there is provided a connection body 4 made of a viscoelastic member between the support 2 having the Coyle 6 and the holder 7 and the movable body 3 having the magnet 5 and the yoke 8 opposed to the Coyle 6 in the first direction Z.Accordingly, when the electric current is supplied to the Coyle 6, the movable body 3 vibrates in the direction perpendicular to the first direction Z with respect to the support body 2.In the second direction X, the connection body 4 is provided at a portion in which the holder 7 provided on the support 2 and the yoke 8 provided on the movable body 3 are opposed to each other in the second direction X.Accordingly, since there is no large space for providing the connection body 4 outside the yoke 8, even if the size of the actuator 1 in the second direction X is reduced, the size of the second direction X of the magnets 5 and 6 can be increased.Diagram
