The Caribbean Revolutionary Alliance (French: Alliance révolutionnaire caraïbe) was a militant autonomist organization active in the Caribbean-located overseas department of Guadeloupe in the 1980s. The group demanded the independence of Guadeloupe, Martinique and French Guiana.[1] The group was outlawed by the French government following a series of bombings in 1984.

The group also carried out bombings in protest of the Route du Rhum sailing event in November 1986.[2] The group was active from 1983 to 1988.[1]
