Limasol (1894–1916) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. She showed promising form as a two-year-old despite failing to win any of her three starts and recorded her biggest success on her three-year-old debut when she upset the odds-on favourite Chelandry to take the Epsom Oaks. She was subsequently campaigned over extreme distances against male opposition and never won again. She made no impact as a broodmare.
