The Aonami Line (あおなみ線, Aonami-sen) is a third-sector commuter railway line in the city of Nagoya operated by the Nagoya Rinkai Rapid Transit (名古屋臨海高速鉄道, Nagoya Rinkai Kōsoku Tetsudō). Officially called the Nishi-Nagoyakō Line (西名古屋港線, Nishi-Nagoyakō-sen, West Nagoya Port Line), it connects Nagoya Station with Kinjō-futō Station.

The line was formerly a freight branch line of Tokaido Main Line, converted for passenger usage in October 2004.[2] It is still operated as a freight line by Japan Freight Railway Company between Nagoya and Nagoya Freight Terminal; thus, the section between Nagoya and Arako Station is used for both passenger and freight traffic. Since its opening in 2017, the Aonami Line is used as the main rapid transit access to Legoland Japan Resort, located nearby the terminus.

The line's name is a combination of the company's color ao ("blue"), na for Nagoya, and mi for Minato ward.[3]
