Ōkawa Station (大川駅, Ōkawa-eki) is a passenger railway station located in Kawasaki-ku, Kawasaki, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East).

Ōkawa Station is the terminus of the Ōkawa branch of the Tsurumi Line, and is 5.1 km from the western terminus of the line at Tsurumi Station.
