Almog ( _he. אַלְמוֹג) is a kibbutz and Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Located near Jericho on the northwestern shores of the Dead Sea in the Jordan Rift Valley, it falls under the jurisdiction of Megilot Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 192.

The village was founded as a Nahal settlement in 1977, before becoming a kibbutz in 1979, when it was joined people from other kibbutzim. It is named after Yehuda Kopolevitz Almog, one of the first settlers in the area, who founded the potassium mining operation in the south of Israel. Almog was also one of the founders of the nearby pre-war kibbutz Beit HaArava.
