HaHotrim (Hebrew: הַחוֹתְרִים‎, lit. The Rowers) is a kibbutz in northern Israel. Located near Tirat Carmel, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hof HaCarmel Regional Council. In 2015 it had a population of 730.

The beginnings of the kibbutz were in December 1941, with the formation of a work company near Kiryat Haim by Jewish refugees from Czechoslovakia and Germany. The kibbutz was established in 1952 on the land of a depopulated Palestinian village named al-Tira.
