Scarborough Lifeboat Station is located at West Pier on Foreshore Road in Scarborough, a seaside resort and port on the east coast of North Yorkshire, England.
A lifeboat was established at Scarborough in 1801, which makes it the third oldest operational lifeboat station in the United Kingdom (after Montrose and Sunderland). Management of the station was transferred to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) in 1861.
The station currently operates 13-15 Frederick William Plaxton (ON 1322), a Shannon-class All-weather lifeboat, on station since 2016, and the John Wesley Hillard IV (D-856), an Inshore D-class lifeboat, on station since 2021.
