Attalia (/æˈtæljə/) is an extinct town in Walla Walla County, Washington. The GNIS classifies it as a populated place. Attalia was located on the East shore of the Columbia River some 8 miles downriver from Burbank.

A post office called Attalia was established in 1906, and remained in operation until 1952. According to tradition, the town was named after a place in Italy.

Attalia was a stop on both the Northern Pacific Railway and the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company in 1909.
