FC Gagra (Georgian: გაგრა) is a Georgian football club which currently plays in Umaglesi Liga.
The new club was formed as FC Gagra in 2004 at Regionuli Liga, where the club won promotion to the Pirveli Liga. After winning their second-tier division, Gagra lost the promotion play-off in 2005–06 and 2006–07 and failed to promote to the Umaglesi Liga. In 2007–08, they again lost the promotion play-off, but after some withdrawals in the Umaglesi Liga the team was promoted finally. In the 2008–09 season, the team played in the top league, but were to be relegated in the end. Only after higher placed teams withdrew from the league Gagra weren't relegated. Gagra won the first League of 2010–2011 season, and became the winner of the Georgian Cup, defeating three-time winners FC Torpedo Kutaisi 1–0 after extra time.
