Julien Bahain (born 20 April 1986, in Angers) is a rower of French/Canadian origin. He competed at the 2008 Summer Olympics, where he won a bronze medal in the quadruple sculls with Jonathan Coeffic, Pierre-Jean Peltier and Cédric Berrest.[1] In 2014, he decided to retire from the French rowing team to row for Canada.

In 2013, he rowed across the Atlantic Ocean with Patrick Favre. It took them 49 days to row from Tarfaya (Morocco) to Tartane (Martinique).

In June 2016, he was officially named to Canada's 2016 Olympic team.[2]
