HMS Lively was a 38-gun frigate of the Royal Navy launched and commissioned in 1804. In October of the same year, under the command of Captain Sir Graham Hamond, she joined a squadron commanded by Graham Moore consisting of four frigates, which intercepted and captured a Spanish treasure fleet of four frigates carrying bullion from South America back to Spain, which was, at that time, neutral. The Spanish frigate Clara struck her colours to Lively.
In March 1805, she was attached to a military expedition to Italy. Lively escorted the fleet of transports to Malta.
On August 26 1810, while escorting another convoy to Malta, Lively ran aground on rocks near and was wrecked. No lives were lost.
