Bosansko Primorje (transl. Bosnian Coast, or Bosnian Littoral) is a historical coastal region on the eastern Adriatic shores, which between the beginning of the 14th and the end of the 17th century stretched from the Neretva river delta to Kuril area of Petrovo Selo, near today's Dubrovnik, above Mokošica in Rijeka Dubrovačka. This region is referred in historiography as the Bosansko Primorje, Bosnian Littoral or Bosnian Coast.
Bosansko Primorje as historical region, which comprised entire Primorje Župa, was changing over time in scope and territorial area. It was mentioned in historical documents from the period of the beginning of the 14th century until the end of the 19th century. Since then, the related term Bosanskohercegovačko primorje has been in use.
