Bempton railway station serves the village of Bempton in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is located on the Yorkshire Coast Line and is operated by Northern who provide all passenger train services. It is located on the single track section between Hunmanby and Bridlington and is the nearest railway station to the RSPB nature reserve at Bempton Cliffs (1.5 miles (2.4 km) away to the east).
The station formerly had two platforms and a signal box (which supervised the now automated level crossing here), but the second platform has been disused since the Bridlington to Hunmanby section was singled in 1969. Goods sidings and weighbridge were located immediately north of the station.
