Jambo Caribe is an album by trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie recorded in 1964 and released on the Limelight label.

The Allmusic review states "The populist Dizzy Gillespie gets full rein in this lively, happy collection of tunes exploring rhythms and idioms from the Caribbean. Gillespie is in an ebullient mood, even offering some sly lead calypso vocals on three numbers".
