The Libyan Sea (Greek: Λιβυκό(ν) πέλαγος) is a portion of the Mediterranean Sea situated north of the country of Libya and generally southerly of the island of Crete.

The southern coastline of Crete which borders the Libyan Sea includes the Asterousia Mountains and Mesara Plain; this area is the locus of considerable ancient Bronze Age settlement including the sites of Kommos, Hagia Triada and Phaistos.
