The Batova reka () is a 39 km long river in northeastern Bulgaria.
The river takes its source under the name Kavakdere from a karst spring at an altitude of 309 m in the Frangen Plateau some 1.2 km southwest of the village of Kumanovo. Throughout its whole course the Batova reka flows in a canyon-like valley with forest slopes prone to landslides. It flows north until the village of Dolishte, after which it turns east, forming a large arc bulging northwards to bypass the Frangen Plateau. Turning southeast, it flows into the Black Sea at the village of Kranevo. It its mouth is located the Baltata Reserve, which protects the northernmost coastal riverine forest in Bulgaria, while south of it lies Golden Sands Nature Park. Just north of Baltata is the important seaside resort of Albena. The Batova reka is the only river in Southern Dobrudzha with a permanent year-round water flow.
