Hod HaSharon (Hebrew: הוד השרון, lit. 'Splendor of the Sharon') is a city in the Central District of Israel. The city is located approximately ten kilometres (six miles) east of the Mediterranean coastline, south of Kfar Saba, southeast of Ra'anana, and northeast of Ramat HaSharon. In 2024 it had a population of 66,398.

Hod HaSharon was officially formed and made a local council in 1964 by the merging of four moshavot: Magdiel, Ramatayim, Kfar Hadar, and Ramat Hadar. The land area of Hod HaSharon is 19.2 square kilometres (7+7⁄16 sq mi).
