Robin Hood's Bay railway station was a railway station on the Scarborough & Whitby Railway situated 15 miles (24 km) from Scarborough and 6 miles (9.7 km) from Whitby. It served the fishing village of Robin Hood's Bay, and to a lesser extent the village of Fylingthorpe. The station initially opened in 1885, and finally closed in 1965, along with the rest of the line. The station buildings survive, along with the station master's house, and are used for holiday accommodation, whilst the station yard is used as a car park. The Cinder Track multi-user path from Scarborough to Whitby passes through the site.
