The Glen Melville Dam is a dam supplied by the Orange-Fish River Tunnel, near Grahamstown, Eastern Cape, South Africa. It was established in 1992 and its main purpose is for domestic and industrial use.

The construction of the dam was motivated by the lack of access to sufficient water in Grahamstown.
