The 2005–06 season was **Deportivo de La Coruña'**s 35th season in La Liga, the top division of Spanish football. They also competed in the Copa del Rey and the UEFA Intertoto Cup. The season covered the period 1 July 2005 to 30 June 2006.

The season began with Deportivo searching for a new manager, following the departure of Javier Irureta after seven highly successful seasons. He was replaced by Joaquín Caparrós, who joined from Sevilla. Caparrós lead Depor to 8th in his first La Liga campaign, the same result as Irureta had achieved the previous year.

Greater success was to be had in cup competitions, as they reached the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey for the first time since 2002–03, before being defeated by eventual champions Espanyol. They also reached the final stage of the 2005 UEFA Intertoto Cup, where they lost to French side Olympique de Marseille.

Deportivo's kit was manufactured by Joma and sponsored by Fadesa.
