Katwijk (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈkɑtʋɛik]), also spelled Katwyk, is a coastal municipality and town in the province of South Holland, which is situated in the mid-western part of the Netherlands. Katwijk is also the largest town in The Netherlands, without railway transportation (rail connection in public transport).

The Oude Rijn ("Old Rhine") river flows through the town and into the North Sea.

Katwijk is located on the North Sea, northwest of Leiden and 16 km north of The Hague. It shares its borders with the municipalities of Noordwijk, Teylingen, Oegstgeest, Leiden, and Wassenaar.

Katwijk covers an area of 31.15 km² (12.03 sq mi), of which 6.40 km² (2.47 sq mi) is water.

Katwijk is by far the largest town in the Duin- en Bollenstreek ("Dune and Bulb Region").
