Santos de Guápiles Fútbol Club is a Costa Rican football club, which currently plays in the Primera División.

The club plays in Estadio Ebal Rodríguez in Guápiles, Limón, Costa Rica. They have a loyal fan club, who call themselves the La Marea Roja.

The club was founded in 1961 and have never been league champions. They were runner-up twice, in 2001–02 and in the 2012 Verano championship. They reached the top tier after winning promotion in 1999 after beating Municipal Liberia in a May 1999 play-off final marred by violence off the pitch.

Santos play their home games in the Estadio Ebal Rodríguez, where Alajuelense's Wilson Muñoz scored the first Primera División goal in a 1999 4–0 league win over the hosts.
