Tai Hang (大坑) (Meaning: The Big Water Channel) is an area southeast of Causeway Bay located in the mid-north of Hong Kong Island in Hong Kong. The area is mainly residential.

Tai Hang is a valley with opening to the reclaimed Causeway Bay in north and So Kon Po in west. Its south and east are hills. The former coast is marked by Tung Lo Wan Road and the main road Tai Hang Road winds in the hills throughout the area.

The area of Tai Hang is divided into hilly south and plain north. The hilly area includes a public housing estate Lai Tak Tsuen and some highrise residential blocks for affluents. The plain south is full of old residential blocks. Its named after a stream (or drainage) from nearby hills.

The famous Tiger Balm Garden is also located in the area.
