Opol, officially the Municipality of Opol (Cebuano: Lungsod sa Opol; Tagalog: Bayan ng Opol), is a municipality in the province of Misamis Oriental, Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 66,836 people.

Historically, Opol was a more rural area focused on agriculture and fishing, which later attracted migrants from Luzon and Visayas in the area by the turn of 20th century. Over the years, however, the municipality is gradually becoming more urbanized, as a result of local population growth and the expansion of nearby Cagayan de Oro, due to another wave of migrants from Luzon and Visayas in the area. The subdivision of rural land for new residential housing is a matter of some controversy amongst locals. The current Mayor, Jayfrancis D. Bago (commonly known as "Jay Bago"), has held office in Opol after Maximo Seno.
