Cauca (spansk: Río Cauca) er den største sideelva til Rio Magdalena i Colombia, og landets nest lengste elv. Elva går fra sør til nord i den vestlige delen av landet mellom fjellkjedene Cordillera Occidental og Cordillera Central. Cauca er om lag 1 180 kilometer lang. Elva starter i provinsen Cauca sør for byen Popayan og millionbyen Cali, og renner nesten rett nordover og bøyer vest for Medellín før den får tilsig av elva Porce fra vest – ei sideelv som starter ved Medellín. Cauca-elva er utbygd med vannkraft, deriblant regnet ovenfra El Pescador-demningen, Salvajina-demningen, og Cañafisto-demningen.
