Yokosuka (横須賀市 Yokosuka-shi?) es una ciudad costera japonesa, en la prefectura de Kanagawa. Su población es de 428.940 habitantes (2006). Está incluida en la conurbación de Tokio.

Está ubicada en la boca de la bahía de Tokio, concretamente en la península de Miura, que ocupa hasta la Bahía de Sagami. Sus poblaciones vecinas o colindantes son Yokohama, Miura, Hayama, y Zushi.

Una de las razones por la que es conocida esta ciudad, es que en Yokosuka nació Hide, guitarrista del legenario grupo de rock X Japan, así como por ser mencionada en el capítulo 7 de Evangelion, por ser el lugar a donde llegarían con la unidad 02. Otra de las razones es debido a que la primera entrega de la aventura gráfica Shenmue, desarrollada por AM2 y lanzada en la Dreamcast, fue ambientada en esta ciudad. El juego se caracterizaba por su alto grado de realismo e incluía detalladas reproducciones virtuales de los barrios de Yamanose, Sakuragaoka y Dobuita, así como del puerto de Yokosuka.
