River Divie (Scottish Gaelic: Abhainn Divie) is a river in Moray, Scotland that originates from the River Findhorn, and flows up to the Moray boundary close to the Lùb Ghlas (shieling) where it forms into Allt Dearg.

The River Divie passes through the Divie Viaduct, a notable landmark despite the river's relative obscurity, and then it flows southeast into Dava Moor passing Glenmore (presumably used to be a cottage or a farm).

The river features two fords before the end of the river and several footbridges at the start of it.

At its end, a very small unnamed stream contributes to the formation of Allt Dearg.
