Kurort (Russian: Куро́рт) is a railway station in Sestroretsk, Russia. This station is intensively used by people from St. Petersburg to access the beaches at the Gulf of Finland in summer. All over the years the station serves the numerous sanatoriums located in the nearby.

The station was constructed simultaneously with the central sanatorium, the Sestroretsk Kurort (1900). In the beginning of the 20th century, a short Kurort-Shkolnaya-Dyuny rail branch started here which is now demolished.
