Al Jawf (Arabic: الجوف Al Ğawf) is a town in southeastern Libya, the capital of the Kufra district in Libya.

The city has an elevation of 382.2 m (1,254 feet). In 2022, the city's population was 18,587.[1] Al Jawf receives almost no rain, averaging only 2.5 millimetres or 0.1 inches per year. Summer high temperatures average above 38 °C or 100 °F.

The city lies in the largest oasis in the Kufra basin,[2] extracting the water from the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System. It is one of the most heavily irrigated oases in the Sahara. The surrounding area contains clusters of center-pivot irrigation systems used for agriculture. The distinctive pattern was photographed from orbit by the crew of the International Space Station in 2016.[3]
