The 2014 Euro Beach Soccer Cup was the fourteenth edition of the Euro Beach Soccer Cup, one of Europe's main, regular international beach soccer championships organised every two years by Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW), held in August 2014, in Baku, Azerbaijan.

Just six nations took part as in 2008, compared to the usual eight, and the teams were not the top-ranked nations from the preceding Euro Beach Soccer League season as in the past but a mix of teams from the divisions as listed below. The competition started with a round-robin ground stage for only the third time, instead of a straight knock-out tournament, with the top two nations from the groups competing in a final match for the title, the others in the respective positions in their groups playing for third and fifth place in classifying matches to determine the final standings.^[1]

Spain won the championship for the fourth time, their third win in their last five appearances and their fourth title overall.^[2]

The teams were announced on August 7.^[1]
