George Stephen Camacho (15 October 1945 – 2 October 2015) was a West Indian international cricketer who played in eleven Test matches from 1968 to 1971 as an opening batsman and occasional leg-spin bowler.

Camacho played first-class cricket for Guyana from 1965 to 1979.{{cite news |last1=Cozier |first1=Tony |title=A background man in the era of West Indian dominance |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/tony-cozier-on-steve-camacho-a-background-man-in-the-era-of-west-indian-dominance-925629 |access-date=5 April 2025 |work=Cricinfo |date=4 October 2015}} He was part of the West Indian Test side for four series: 1967–68, 1968–69, 1969, 1970–71. His final tour was to England in 1973: in only the second game, his cheekbone was fractured by a bouncer from Hampshire's Andy Roberts and he left the side, never to play another Test.
