The Dromadaire was a 24-gun store ship of the French Navy.
On 29 March 1811, she departed Toulon under lieutenant Morin, carrying 8 tonnes of gunpowder and ammunition for Corfu, escorted by the frigates Adrienne and Amélie. Two days later, the ships ran across a British squadron comprising HMS Unite and HMS Ajax. Dromadaire was captured, while the frigates managed to escape to Portoferraio. Morin was acquitted for the loss of his ship on 28 December 1811.
