River Divie (Scottish Gaelic: Abhainn Divie) is a river in Moray, Scotland, that is tributary to the River Findhorn. It begins near the Moray boundary, close to Lùb Ghlas (shieling), from the junction of an unnamed stream with the Allt Dearg stream.

The River Divie passes through Glenmore (presumably a former cottage, farm or a locality), after flowing northwestward through Dava Moor, it passes the Divie Viaduct, a notable landmark despite the river's relative obscurity.

The river features approximately two fords, as well as several footbridges near its end.
