Beit Yehoshua (, lit. House of Yehoshua) is a moshav in central Israel. Located in the coastal plain near Netanya, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hof HaSharon Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 784. The village was established as a kibbutz on 17 August, 1938 by members of the Bnei Akiva movement as part of the tower and stockade settlement programme. It was named after Yehoshua Tahon, a Zionist activist. In 1950 it became a moshav shitufi, and later a moshav ovdim (a more common form of moshav.) The moshav is served by Beit Yehoshua Railway Station.
