Haifa–Hof HaCarmel railway station (Hebrew: תחנת הרכבת חיפה – חוף הכרמל, Taḥanat HaRakevet Haifa Ḥof HaCarmel, lit. Carmel Coast or Carmel Beach, sometimes spelled Haifa–Hof HaKarmel; Arabic: محطة قطار حيفا – حوف هكرمل or محطة قطار حيفا – شاطئ الكرمل) is an Israel Railways station serving the city of Haifa, Israel.
Although it is not Haifa's official central railway station, its location next to the Carmel Beach central bus station makes it the busiest in the city, and in the country outside of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Furthermore, it has the most platforms out of any Haifa station, effectively making it the central railway station de facto.
