Si Basilio ng Caesarea o San Basil ang Dakila, (329 o 330 CE[5] – 1 Enero 379 CE) (Griyego: Ἅγιος Βασίλειος ὁ Μέγας) ang Griyegong obispo ng Caesarea Mazaca sa Cappadocia, Asia Menor (modernong Turkey). Siya ay isang maimpluwensiya (influential) na teologo na sumuporta sa kredong Niceno at sumalungat sa mga erehiya ng maagang simbahang Kristiyano. Kanyang nilabanan ang parehong Arianismo at mga tagasunod ni Apollinaris ni Laodicea. Ang kanyang kakayahan na balansihin ang kanyang mga konbiksiyong teolohikal sa kanyang mga koneksiyong pampolitika ay gumawa sa kanyang isang makapangyarihang tagapagtaguyod ng posisyong Niceno. Siya ay kabilang sa mga amang Capadocio.
