Tõhela is a village in Pärnu municipality, Pärnu County, in southwestern Estonia. It has a population of 51 (as of 1 January 2011).[1]

Tõhela was first mentioned in 1518 as Toegel and Toigel. But the place itself has been inhabited earlier before, as prove the gravesites from the beginning of the 2nd millennium.[2]

Lake Tõhela is located south, in the neighbouring Männikuste village.
