Two vessels of the Royal Navy have borne the name Holly:

HMS Holly (1809) was a Shamrock-class schooner launched in Bermuda. She participated in the capture of San Sebastián in 1813, a campaign that resulted in the Admiralty awarding her crew the Naval General Service Medal. She was wrecked in January 1814.
HMT Holly (T–19) was the trawler Kingston Coral that Cook, Welton & Gemmill, Beverley launched on 17 April 1930. The Royal Navy purchased her in November 1935 for use as a minesweeper and renamed her Holly. She was sold in 1947 and became the Norwegian trawler Dragaberg, which was wrecked off Faeringehavn, Greenland on 28 July 1961.
