Oysterhaven is a sea-inlet on the coast of County Cork, Ireland; it is the inlet immediately to the east of Kinsale harbour. The land bordering the northern and eastern sides of the inlet is also known as Oysterhaven.

During the Siege of Kinsale, the English forces besieging the town brought supplies to their camp (which was located to the north of the town) by ship into Oysterhaven and thence by boat up the creek to Brown's Mills.
