Abavas Velnala (arī Melderu Velna ala, Matkules Velnala, Kandavas Velnala, Kretuļa ala) ir ala Kandavas novada Kandavas pagastā. Izvietojusies Abavas ielejas kreisā krasta sāngravā pie Kalnmuižas—Aizdzires ceļa netālu no Melderu mājām Abavas senlejas dabas parka teritorijā. Iecienīts tūrisma objekts. Ala un atsegums kopš 1957. gada ir aizsargājams ģeoloģisks objekts, bet kopš 1998. gada — valsts nozīmes arheoloģijas piemineklis.

Ala izveidojusies gaišajos smilšakmeņos zem dolomītu slāņkopām. Tā ir 7 m (pēc citiem datiem — 8,6 m) gara un ap 1 m plata, ar šauru un zemu apdarinātu ieeju. Alas samazināšanos un ieejas aizsprostošanos veicina nobiras no kraujas un nokrišņu ūdens ieskalotās smiltis.
