Rosscarbery or Roscarbery is a town in County Cork. The town is on a shallow estuary, which opens onto Rosscarbery Bay.

The town itself has witnessed unprecedented growth in recent times, despite the lack of any major industry in the area, and being just outside the commuter belt for the city of Cork. The majority of new housing is holiday accommodation, which results in an annual swell in population during summer months. According to the 2006 census, the population of the town is 936.
