Cove Bay, known locally as Cove, is a suburb on the south-east edge of Aberdeen, Scotland.

Today Cove is home to around 8,000 people. It is a popular residential location owing to its village-like status. It is a quiet suburb at the Southern edge of Aberdeen City and in 2020 won the Silver Gilt award for Scotland in Bloom. Altens and Tullos Industrial Estates offer nearby employment opportunities. There is also easy access to the new AWPR A90.
