Sancha of Portugal (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsɐ̃ʃɐ]) (2 February 1264 – 1279/c. 1284) was a Portuguese infanta, daughter of King Afonso III of Portugal and his second wife Beatrice of Castile.

Sancha was born on 2 February 1264. Little is known about her life. She travelled with her mother and sister Blanche to Seville where she died in 1279 or around 1284. In 1302, her remains were transferred to Portugal where she was buried at the Monastery of Alcobaça, Alcobaça.
