The Santa Cruz River (Tagalog: Ilog ng Santa Cruz) is a river system in Santa Cruz, Laguna, on the island of Luzon, in the Philippines.

It is one of 21 tributaries of Laguna de Bay, contributing about 15% of the total water in the lake. It is thus regularly monitored by the Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) through one of its 15 river monitoring stations.[1]
