Salies-de-Béarn (, literally Salies of Béarn; ) is a commune in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department in south-western France.

The name comes from its naturally occurring saline water (Gascon salias for Standard Occitan salinas). During the expanded, pre-liberation occupation of France by Nazi Germany, Salies was on the border between the occupied zone and the free zone.
