Bîc (Bâc or Byk) is a river in Moldova, a right tributary of Dniester.

The upper flow of Bîc cuts a deep canyon in Codri Hills. The capital of Moldova, Chişinău, is situated by Bîc. A dam at Bîc by Chişinău holds the Chişinău Sea reservoir of area about 10 km². In summer Bîc often dries out and turns into a chain of lakes. Bîc is heavily polluted.
