The Mount Maunganui branch is a short industrial branch line in Tauranga, New Zealand, servicing the Port of Tauranga. It branches from the East Coast Main Trunk at a triangle junction outside Baypark Stadium before running north-west through Mount Maunganui to the port complex.

A number of services use the branch each day, carrying goods to and from the port to Te Rapa and Auckland and export timber and timber products from local forests and the Kinleith Mill.
