Burayka was a Palestinian Arab village in the Haifa Subdistrict. It was depopulated during the 1947–1948 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine on May 5, 1948. It was located 29 km south of Haifa.

A school, founded in 1889 during the Ottoman period, was located in the village, but was closed during the British Mandate period.

In 1945 the village had a population of 290.

Today, a civilian explosives factory is located on the site.[2]
