HMS Hibernia was a Royal Navy 110-gun first rate ship of the line.

She was flagship of the British Mediterranean Fleet from 1816 until 1855, when she became the flagship for the Royal Navy's base at Malta and stationed in Grand Harbour. She remained in this role until she was sold in 1902.

Her figurehead is in the Maritime Museum, Vittoriosa, Malta.
