In the [[geometry]] of [[Hyperbolic space|hyperbolic 3-space]], the '''order-8-3 hexagonal honeycomb''' (or '''6,8,3 honeycomb''') a regular space-filling [[tessellation]] (or [[honeycomb (geometry)|honeycomb]]). Each infinite cell consists of aan [[order-6 hexagonal tiling]] whose vertices lie on a [[Hypercycle (geometry)|2-hypercycle]], each of which has a limiting circle on the ideal sphere.

The [[Schläfli symbol]] of the ''order-8-3 hexagonal honeycomb'' is {6,8,3}, with three order-5 hexagonal tilings meeting at each edge. The [[vertex figure]] of this honeycomb is an octagonal tiling, {8,3}.
