Screeb (Irish: An Scríob) is a small village in south-west Connemara, County Galway, Ireland. It is near Casla, south of Oughterard.

Its major claim to fame is that it had one of Ireland's few peat-burning power stations. The economics of the station had been doubtful but it was a welcome source of employment locally at the time.
