Marske railway station serves the village of Marske-by-the-Sea in the borough of Redcar and Cleveland and the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire, England. The station is located on the Tees Valley Line and operated by Northern Trains which provides all passenger train services.

The railway station is the oldest in the large village of Marske with the other (Longbeck) being built in the 1980s. The station was also mentioned in George Bradshaws 1863 railway guide.
