South Chennai is a geographic term used to denote the new southern neighbourhoods of Chennai city, India. It is roughly used for the neighbourhoods and suburbs that lie south of the Adyar River. None of these places were part of Chennai Corporation before 1947 and most were included as recently as 2012.

South Chennai has two notified reserve forests and has a rich human history indicated by the presence of many palaeolithic, neolithic and megalithic remains.
