The Gare de Noyelles is a railway station serving the town Noyelles-sur-Mer, Somme department, northern France. It is served by mainline trains on the Boulogne - Abbeville line, and also by the Chemin de Fer de la Baie de Somme heritage railway trains to Le Crotoy, Saint-Valery-sur-Somme and Cayeux-sur-Mer.

Gare de Noyelles station opened in 1845 when the Chemin de Fer du Nord standard gauge line between Boulogne, Pas-de-Calais and Amiens, Somme opened.

In 1858, a 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) standard gauge branch to St. Valery Quai was opened. Extension of the line was desired in the 1880s, but it was considered that it would be too expensive to build the line as standard gauge. Instead, the exetnsions were to be laid with metre gauge track. A 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) extension to Le Crotoy opened on 1 July 1887. A 19 kilometres (12 mi) metre gauge line to Cayeux-sur-Mer opened on 6 September 1887. This line was laid as a dual gauge line as far as St. Valery, with the metre gauge rails laid between the standard gauge rails. On 28 August 1892, an 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) metre gauge line opened to Forest-l'Abbaye, joining with a 42 kilometres (26 mi) long line between Abbeville and Dompierre-sur-Authie which had opened on 19 June 1892. The whole system became known as the Réseau des Bains de Mer.
