Marsa Brega (en árabe : مرسى البريقة Marsa al Burayqah), también conocida como Marsa El Brega o Brega, se encuentra en el punto más meridional del golfo de Sirte, en Libia. Está ubicada en el antiguo Distrito de Ajdabiya, que en 2007 se fusionó con el distrito de Al Wahat. Durante las protestas de 2011, la ciudad cayó bajo el control de la oposición y el gobierno democrático de Libia. Las fuerzas de Gadafi trataron de capturar la ciudad el 2 de marzo, pero fueron repelidos por la oposición.
