Seven ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Britomart, after the Britomartis of Greek mythology:

  • HMS Britomart was a 16-gun brig-sloop captured from the Danes in 1807 and commissioned as {{HMS|Glommen|1807|6}}. She was renamed HMS Britomart in 1808, but the name change was rescinded before she wrecked in 1809.
  • {{HMS|Britomart|1808}} was a 10-gun {{sclass-|Cherokee|brig-sloop}} launched in 1808 and sold in 1819. She then entered mercantile service and in 1822, at least, was transporting passengers from London to Van Diemen's Land. She foundered in 1839 on her way between Port Phillip and Hobart. Lloyd's Register for 1840 has the annotation "missing" by her name.[1]
  • {{HMS|Britomart|1820}} was another 10-gun Cherokee-class brig-sloop, launched in 1820 and sold in 1843. Captain William Hobson, of Britomart, asserted British sovereignty over New Zealand in 1840
  • {{HMS|Britomart|1847}} was an 8-gun brig launched in 1847. She was used as a coastguard vessel from 1857 and was renamed WV25 in 1863. She was broken up by 1874.
  • {{HMS|Britomart|1860}} was a wood screw {{sclass-|Britomart|gunboat}} launched in 1860. She was sold in 1892, and then resold as a mooring hulk, being broken up in 1946.
  • {{HMS|Britomart|1899}} was a {{sclass-|Bramble|gunboat|2||1898}} launched in 1899 and sold in 1920 into civilian service, being renamed Sakuntala.
  • {{HMS|Britomart|J22}} was a {{sclass-|Halcyon|minesweeper}} launched in 1938 and sunk in 1944.
