Sir Thomas Dale (died August 19, 1619) is a British naval commander and deputy-governor of the Virginia Colony in 1611 and from 1614 to 1616.

Governor Dale is best remembered for the energy and the extreme rigor of his administration in Virginia, which establishes order and in various ways seems to have benefited the colony.

He is also credited with the establishment of Bermuda Hundred, Bermuda Cittie (sic), and the ill-fated development at Henricus.
