The Åland Social Democrats (Swedish: Ålands Socialdemokrater) are a social-democratic political party on the Åland Islands. In the 2023 parliamentary election, the party won 12.82% of the popular vote and 4 out of 30 seats, a gain of one seat.

The current organisation was founded in 1971, although workers’ associations have existed on Åland since 1906. After the independence of Finland, the Åland Social Democrats were more closely aligned with the Swedish Social Democratic Party than with the Social Democratic Party of Finland. Following the Second World War, the Social Democrats competed with supporters of the far-left Finnish People's Democratic League, which briefly became the largest political movement on the islands.
