Degania Bet (, Dganya Bet) is a kvutza in northern Israel. Located to the south of the Sea of Galilee adjacent to Degania Alef, it falls under the jurisdiction of Emek HaYarden Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 491. The village was founded in 1920 by immigrants from the Second Aliyah. During the 1936-39 Arab revolt it served as a base for establishing tower and stockade settlements. In the 1948 Arab-Israeli War the residents of Degania Alef and Bet succeeded in halting the advance of the Syrian army into the Jordan Valley; one Syrian tank stopped in the fighting remains today.
