Zdravko-Ćiro Kovačić (July 6, 1925, Šibenik, Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes – April 1, 2015, Rijeka, Croatia) was a Croat water polo player who competed for Yugoslavia in the 1948 Summer Olympics, in the 1952 Summer Olympics, and in the 1956 Summer Olympics.
Kovačič was born in Šibenik in 1925, but moved to Sušak the next year and therefore considered himself a native of Rijeka.

Four years later he won the silver medal with the Yugoslav team in the 1952 tournament. He played all nine matches as goalkeeper.
