The River Morar is a river that flows from Loch Morar in the west Highlands of Scotland. It flows from the western end of the loch to the estuary of Morar Bay, an inlet of the Sound of Sleat. It is one of Scotland's shortest rivers, and is known for its white sands beaches where it flows through Morar Bay.

The river is crossed by three bridges, and is the site of a hydro-electric power station, built as part of the first constructional scheme promoted by the newly-formed North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board, to demonstrate its commitment to supplying the remote areas of Scotland with electricity. It was commissioned in 1948.
