RFA Bacchus was a stores freighter and distilling ship of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary.

[1] On 4 May 1928, Bacchus was in collision with the Greek cargo ship Ioannis Falafos in the English Channel 20 nautical miles (37 km) south of St. Alban's Head, Dorset.

The survivors were initially rescued by Bacchus but she was severely damaged at the bows and was abandoned as it was thought that she would sink too.

She was sunk as target on 15 November 1938 over the Hurd Deep, 10 miles (16 km) off Alderney in the Channel Islands, by gunfire from the cruiser HMS Dunedin.
