Nadezhdinsky District (Russian: Наде́ждинский райо́н) is an administrative and municipal district (raion), one of the twenty-two in Primorsky Krai, Russia. It is located on the southern coast of the krai. The area of the district is 1,595.7 square kilometers (616.1 sq mi). Its administrative center is the rural locality (a selo) of Volno-Nadezhdinskoye. Population: 39,161 (2010 Census);40,197 (2002 Census);43,012 (1989 Census). The population of Volno-Nadezhdinskoye accounts for 17.1% of the district's total population.

The Razdolnaya River crosses the territory of the district. Despite the high density of the population, close location to the large city, and the developed road network, Nadezhdinsky District boasts the unique nature attractions such as the yew (Taxus cuspidata) grove with an area of 400,000 square meters (4,300,000 sq ft), and Korean pine forests.

The district was established in 1937.

The favorable climatic conditions and closeness to Vladivostok (the administrative center of the krai) predetermined the district's specialization. There are seven agricultural enterprises which provide Vladivostok with meat, milk, eggs, vegetables, and potatoes. Mink, foxes, , and deer are bred in the district.
