NRP Bartolomeu Dias was a sloop of the Portuguese Navy. The ship was the second of the Afonso de Albuquerque-class sloop, which also included the lead ship of the class, the NRP Afonso de Albuquerque. These ships were classified, by the Portuguese Navy, as avisos coloniais de 1ª classe (colonial aviso 1st class) and were designed for colonial service in the Overseas territories of Portugal.
Following the failed 1936 Naval Revolt, an investigation was opened into discipline aboard the ship.
