The Acolin () is a long river in France. It is a left tributary of the Loire, which it meets near Decize. It flows through the departments of Allier and Nièvre.

==Course== The Acolin has its source south of the town of Mercy (Allier) in a wooded area covered with many ponds. The source is some south-east of Moulins. Its basin drains the area between the lower reaches of the Allier in the west and the Besbre to the east. Like its neighbors, it maintains a northerly direction, for more than and eventually empties into the Loire near the town of Avril-sur-Loire, just downstream from Decize.
