St Annes Lifeboat Station is a former lifeboat station, located on Eastbank Road, in the Fylde coast town of St Annes, Lancashire.

A lifeboat was first stationed here by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) in 1881.[1]

In the 1920s, sand and silt build up in the area destroyed the local fishing industry, which had provided most of the lifeboat crew. St Annes was then deemed a 'half-time' station, only be able to launch around high-tide. It was decided to close the St Annes Lifeboat Station in May 1925.[1]
