- The second San Jacinto (CVL-30) was a light aircraft carrier that saw action in the latter half of World War II and was decommissioned in 1947.
- The third San Jacinto (CG-56) is a guided missile cruiser commissioned in 1988 and in service as of 2004.
The SS San Jacinto was a civilian steamship that collided with the USS Oosterdijk in 1918.
