Porthcawl Lifeboat Station (based in Porthcawl, Bridgend, Wales) opened in 1860 and a boathouse was subsequently built on the promenade to house the lifeboat.[1] This station was closed in 1902 when Porthcawl Dock was closed.
The station reopened in 1965 as an Inshore Lifeboat Station with a D-class (EA16) lifeboat. The current boathouse was built in 1996 to house a new Atlantic 75-class lifeboat, which now houses an Atlantic 85-class lifeboat.
