USS Tabora (AKA-45) was an Artemis-class attack cargo ship in service with the United States Navy from 1945 to 1946.

Tabora departed Boston on 9 June and — after nine days of shakedown training out of Hampton Roads, Va. — headed for France.

On the last day of October, she got underway for Buckner Bay; loaded 340 marines; and sailed for San Francisco.

Tabora continued shuttling troops from Pacific bases to the United States until early 1946 when she was scheduled for inactivation.

Tabora was decommissioned on 29 May, returned to the Maritime Commission on 30 June, and struck from the Navy list on 3 July 1946.
