The Caimanes de Barranquilla (Barranquilla Alligators) are a Colombian League team based in Barranquilla, Atlántico and play their home games at Estadio Édgar Rentería. The Caimanes won the championship in their inaugural season (1984-85) and have won the league title 11 times. They were temporarily relocated and became the Caimanes de Lorica during reconstruction of the stadium in 2015-2017. The Caimanes are the only team to play in every LCBP season since the league returned in 1994-95.

In 2022, they became the first team from Colombia to win a Caribbean Series title, defeating Gigantes del Cibao in the championship game.
