Beverly Shores is a train station in Beverly Shores, Indiana, United States, which is served by South Shore Line trains. The station also serves the nearby Town of Pines. It is a flag stop.

This is one of nine such stations built along Insull lines, which included the Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee line. Of the nine, only this station and the North Shore Line's Briergate station still exist. The Mediterranean Revival Style was used for a series of buildings adjacent to the station, including the Bartlett Real Estate Office.

Beverly Shores Station is the last example of the "Insull Spanish" architecture style used for station houses along the electric railroad lines acquired by Samuel Insull in the first part of the twentieth century. It was a Mediterranean Revival style designed by Insull's staff-architect, Arthur U. Gerber. The station is served by daily passenger trains of the South Shore Line. Although freight trains pass daily in either direction, no freight service is offered from this location. The station housed an agent at one time. This section is now an art gallery. The most notable characteristic of the station, aside from the Spanish style, is the large neon sign reading "Beverly Shores".

The station house is located north of the track. There is a rudimentary paved platform structure directly in front of it. A small parking lot is located right behind the depot.

The South Shore line began in 1901 as the Chicago and Indiana Air Line Railway. It was incorporated in 1925, when several stations were added, including the Beverly Shores Station at Broadway and another at Central Avenue. The station was designed by architect Arthur Gerber and built in 1929.
