The Tabernas Desert (Spanish: Desierto de Tabernas) is a desert in Spain and Europe, located within Spain's south-eastern province of Almería. It is in the interior, about 30 kilometers (19 mi) north of the provincial capital Almería, in the Tabernas municipality in Andalusia.

Due to its high elevation and inland location, it has slightly higher annual rainfall (more than 20 cm (7.9 in) per year) and lower annual average temperature than coastal areas of Almeria. A nature reserve (protected area), it spans 280 square kilometers (110 square miles).
