Banana Wind is the twentieth studio album by American popular music singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett.

It was released on MCA and Margaritaville Records on June 4, 1996, debuting at number four on the Billboard 200.

The plane was shot; shortly before, Buffett, U2's Bono, and Island Records producer Chris Blackwell had been aboard.

The song "False Echoes (Havana 1921)" references the ship captained by Jimmy's grandfather, the five-masted barkentine Chickamauga, named after the civil war vessel CSS Chickamauga.
