Moravice (Template:Lang-de) is a river in the Czech Republic, the right tributary of the Opava River. It originates in the Hrubý Jeseník mountain range at the elevation of 1,135 m and flows south-eastward. Near Opava it enters the Opava River. It is 100.5 km long, and its basin area is 899.9 km2.[1] The river partially forms the historical border between Moravia and Silesia.

It flows through Malá Morávka, Dolní Moravice, Břidličná, Kružberk, Jánské Koupele, Hradec nad Moravicí, Branka u Opavy and Opava. The Slezská Harta Dam and Kružberk Dam are constructed on the river. Its major tributary is Hvozdnice.
