Qathet Regional District, Regional district in British Columbia, Canada.

Qathet Regional District encompasses 5,075 square kilometers of diverse terrain including coastal areas, forests, and mountains along the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia.

The district changed its name from Powell River Regional District to Qathet in 2018, adopting a term from the ʔayʔaǰuθəm language meaning working together.
