One ship of the United States Navy has been named Poseidon for the Greek god of the sea.

  • USS Poseidon (ARL-12), an Achelous-class repair ship, served during World War II.
  • A fictitious USS Poseidon (SSN-729) is the title "character" in the 2005 film USS Poseidon: Phantom Below. No vessel has ever had the hull classification symbol SSN-729. SSGN-729 (formerly SSBN-729) is the USS Georgia.
