Retamim () is a kibbutz in the central Negev desert in southern Israel. Located three kilometres northwest of Revivim, it falls under the jurisdiction of Ramat HaNegev Regional Council. In it had a population of .
==History== The community was founded by a group of demobilized IDF soldiers and new immigrants who started to gather in the kibbutz Be'eri in 1978. A second group was established in Revivim in early 1979. The two groups merged in mid-1979 and moved to a caravan site opposite Park Golda after Tlalim had moved to its permanent site in December 1979.
