Buarbreen is a glacier in Ullensvang Municipality in Vestland county, Norway, an offshoot of the larger Folgefonna glacier. It descends into the Buardalen valley about 6 kilometers southwest of the town of Odda and splits into two arms on either side of a small mountain peak, both draining into the Jordalselvi river, which flows through the valley into the lake Sandvinvatnet.
