HaBonim ( _he. הבונים) is a moshav shitufi in northern Israel. Located 5 km south of Atlit and 3 km north of Kibbutz Nahsholim, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hof HaCarmel Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 259.

The moshav was founded in 1949 by the HaBonim movement on land which had previously belonged to the abandoned Arab village of Kafr Lam. The first residents were from the United Kingdom and South Africa. It came to national prominence on 11 June 1985 due to the HaBonim disaster, in which a bus and train collided, killing 22 people, of which 19 were schoolchildren.

Located in the eastern part of the moshav grounds is the ruined medieval fortress of Cafarlet, sometimes referred to as "HaBonim Fortress".
