The Oyabe River (小矢部川, Oyabe-gawa) is a river in Toyama Prefecture, Japan. The river rises from Mount Daimon on the border of Ishikawa Prefecture and enters the sea at Toyama Bay.

The river runs through the city of Fukumitsu in Toyama, where two kilometres are lined with trees for cherry blossom-viewing.
