The Battle of Fayal was a naval engagement between the United States and the United Kingdom fought in September 1814 during the War of 1812 in the Portuguese city of Horta, Faial, in the Azores. Three British warships and several boats filled with sailors and marines under assignment for the Louisiana Campaign attacked an American privateer in port. After repulsing two attacks from British troops and sailors, killing one of their commanders, the Americans won a tactical victory and scuttled their ship the following morning to prevent its capture.
