"Caribbean Queen" is a song by Billy Ocean. Co-written and co-produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange, it climbed to number one on both the soul singles and Hot 100, in the U.S.. and number six in the UK in 1984.

The song was recorded under different titles for different parts of the world—resulting in versions such as "European Queen" and "African Queen."

In 2004, the song was re-released as a digital single for its 20th anniversary, shooting up to #25 on the Billboard digital singles chart and garnering radio play across the US and UK.

A remix of the single by Will.I.Am was released in 2005, and it later appeared on Pitchfork's "Top 500 Tracks of the 2000s" countdown, at #87.
