Florida's 25th congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of Florida. This district includes Hialeah, Doral, LaBelle, and Clewiston. This district also include Miami International Airport.

The district has a large Cuban American population, making up 44.3% of the population, the most of any district in the country.

The prior 25th district, from 2003 through 2012, stretched across a great swath of the Everglades and included parts of Collier, Miami-Dade, and Hendry counties. It took in the Miami-Dade municipalities of Homestead, Leisure City, and Cutler Bay. Much of this area is now the 26th District, while the current 25th is a reconfiguration of what had been the 21st District from 1993 to 2013.

The district is currently represented by Republican Mario Díaz-Balart.
