Thorpeness railway station was a station serving the seaside resort of Thorpeness in Suffolk.

It was opened in 1914 by the Great Eastern Railway on its 8.5-mile (13.7 km) branch line from Saxmundham, and was closed in 1966 as part of the Beeching Axe.

As of 2016 the platform of the former station survives, through overgrown with vegetation, and the trackbed is now a footpath.
