Море Бофорта (англ. Beaufort Sea, фр. mer de Beaufort) — окраинное море Северного Ледовитого океана, омывающее северные берега Канады и Аляски. Море названо в 1825 году британским мореплавателем Джоном Франклином в честь морского офицера, военного гидрографа и картографа (позже — контр-адмирала) Фрэнсиса Бофорта.
