Delight was an English sailing ship that ran aground off Sable Island, while she was on Sir Humphrey Gilbert's expedition with Squirrel to Newfoundland in North America.

Delight and Squirrel left England in 1583 to take part in Sir Humphrey Gilbert's expedition to Newfoundland.

At 7 am on 29 August 1583 Delight sank after running aground on one of Sable Island's sandbars.

Captain Clarke quickly led 16 men to a small lifeboat (which had only one oar) and rowed clear of the fast sinking ship.

Delight sank to a depth of 10 metres (33 ft) and took 85 men (including Stephanus Parmenius) and most of the expedition's supplies with her.
