Apohaqui is an unincorporated Canadian community in Kings County, New Brunswick, located on the Kennebecasis River at the confluence of the Millstream River. Apohaqui straddles the Kennebecasis, which is also the Studholm and Sussex parish boundary.

The name is also used for a special service area and taxing authority within the local service district of the parish of Sussex; the special service area does not extend into Studholm Parish.

The name Apohaqui originates from the Maliseet word Apolog'aneek, and means "The joining of two waters" or "the joining of two rivers".

Apohaqui is also home to the Apohaqui Elementary School, Jones Memorial Park, Apohaqui Community Church, Silas James Memorial Church, and the Atlantic Transport Training Academy.
