Félix Sarriugarte (born November 6, Durango, Vizcaya) is a Spanish Basque football manager.

As a player, Sarriugarte represented Athletic Bilbao for 5 seasons, scoring 18 goals in 83 games. Following his retirement in 1996, he worked for Athletic in various minor coaching capacities, before attracting the attention of the president at the time, Fernando Lamikiz. He was appointed manager on July 8, 2006, by Lamikiz, following the resignation of Javier Clemente. He was sacked on November 27, 2006, following a 1-3 home defeat to Sevilla FC which saw the club drop into 18th position in La Liga, and facing the prospect of a second season fighting relegation.
