Delfi, (grekiska Δελφοί Delphoi, latin Delphi) är både en modern och en forngrekisk stad i prefekturen Fokis i Grekland. Dess stora betydelse härrörde under antiken från det berömda orakel som fanns i stadens Apollontempel. Det arkeologiska området i Delfi blev 1987 uppsatt på Unescos världsarvslista.
