The optical fiber comprises a glass fiber including a core and a cladding. The cladding includes an inner cladding surrounding an outer periphery of the core, a trench surrounding an outer periphery of the inner cladding, and an outer cladding surrounding an outer periphery of the trench. The inner cladding has a refractive index lower than a refractive index of the core. The trench has a refractive index lower than the refractive index of the inner cladding. The outer cladding has a refractive index higher than the refractive index of the trench and lower than the refractive index of the core. The core is doped with germanium. The inner cladding has an average chlorine mass concentration of 500 ppm or more and 5000 ppm or less.
