Saroma (佐呂間町, Saroma-chō) is a town in the Okhotsk Subprefecture, Hokkaido, Japan.

The first permanent Japanese settler was Jingorou Suzuki, who homesteaded near present-day Hamasaroma, on Saroma Lake.

The following decade saw the establishment of a city hall, a railroad, agricultural zoning, and the building of roads.

In the early Shōwa period (1930s), additional railroad connections were built to Saroma and several hundred households moved to the area.

With the privatization of Japan Railways in 1987, the Yūmō Line through Saroma was closed, and replaced with a bus service paralleling the former train routes.

The following year the Saroma Tunnel was opened through Rukushi pass, allowing year-round access to the nearby city of Kitami.

This new modern facility opened in April 2015 and features 19 hospital beds, daily outpatient services, a full MRI machine.

Oda Clinic also closed at the same time, leaving Saroma with no full care facility.

Saroma High School [ja] (北海道佐呂間高等学校) (grades 10-12) is managed by Hokkaido Prefecture.
