The '''Alma''' ({{Lang-uk|Альма}}; {{Lang-ru|Альма}}, {{Lang-crh|Alma}}) is a small river in [[Crimea]] that flows from the [[Crimean Mountains]] in a broadly west-north-west direction to the [[Black Sea]]. Its mouth lies just south of {{ill|Pishchane|uk|Піщане (Бахчисарайський район)}}, halfway between [[Yevpatoria]] and [[Sevastopol]]. ''Alma'' is the [[Crimean Tatar language|Crimean Tatar]] word for an "apple".
