Otahuhu is a suburb of Auckland, New Zealand. It is located 14 kilometres to the southeast of the city centre, on a narrow isthmus between an arm of the Manukau Harbour to the west and the Tamaki River estuary to the east, and as such is an important part of Auckland's southern transportation approaches for both road and rail.

The isthmus is the narrowest connection between the North Auckland Peninsula and the rest of the North Island, being only some 1200 metres wide at its narrowest point, between the Otahuhu Creek and the Mangere Inlet. The aptly named Portage Road runs across the isthmus at this point.

The suburb was established in 1847, initially as a garrison town to protect the settlement of Auckland from the Maori lands around the Waikato.
