Clube de Desportos da Costa do Sol, commonly known as CD Costa do Sol or simply Costa do Sol, is a Mozambican sports club based in Maputo. It is best known for the professional football team playing in Moçambola, the top flight of Mozambican footbal.

Founded in 15 of October 1955, Costa do Sol won its first title in 1979, the Mozambican league, and today is the club with the most titles won since national independence. They are nicknamed canarinhos (little canaries) for their equipment colour.

The club plays their home matches at Estádio do Costa do Sol and has a maximum capacity of 10,000 people. The venue is located about 500 meters from the Costa do Sol beach in Maputo - which inspired the refoundation of the club's name in 1978.
