The Nicobi River is a tributary of the southeastern shore of Lichen Lake (crossed by Opawica River), within the territory of Eeyou Istchee James Bay (municipality), in the administrative region of Nord-du-Québec, in province of Quebec, in Canada.

The surface of the Nicobi River is generally frozen from early December to late April. Forestry is the main economic activity of the sector; recreational tourism activities, second.

Forest roads R1015 (North-South) and R1051 (East-West) are closest to the South side of the Nicobi River Valley. While the North side is served by road 113 which connects Lebel-sur-Quévillon to Chibougamau.
