Yarelys Barrios Castañeda (also Yarelis Barrios Castañeda; born July 12, 1983 in Pinar del Río) is a female discus thrower from Cuba.

She won the Diamond Race in the women's discus throw of the IAAF Diamond League both in 2010 and in 2011.

She won the 2012 Cuban National Championships with a personal best throw of 68.03 metres.

Barrios finished the Olympic discus competition in 2008 in the second place, but was disqualified by the IOC on September 1, 2016 because of doping due to a sample reanalysis which resulted in a positive test for the prohibited substance Acetazolamide.

Barrios sold her Olympic silver medal on auction site, eBay, for unknown reasons, and it was bought for $11,000 (£9,000).
