Sha'ar HaAmakim (Hebrew: שַׁעַר הַעֲמָקִים‎‎, lit. Gate of the Valleys) is a kibbutz in northern Israel. Located near Kiryat Tiv'on, it falls under the jurisdiction of Zevulun Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 548.

The village was founded in 1935 by immigrants from Romania and Yugoslavia. Its name is derived from the nearby confluence of the Jezreel and Zevulun Valleys.

Most of the kibbutz members work in the Chromogen solar water heater factory, whilst the remainder work in agriculture.
