Royal Air Force Station Fraserburgh, or more simply RAF Fraserburgh, is a former Royal Air Force station located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, 3.2 miles (5.1 km) south east of Fraserburgh and 12.3 miles (19.8 km) north west of Peterhead.

The following units were based at Fraserburgh at some point:

Cairnbulg Castle was used as the Officers' Mess. The domestic sites were situated either side of the B9033 road, between the Castle and the airfield, and known as Inverallochy RAF Camp and Tershinty RAF Camp.

The north and north western sides have been taken over by housing, and the rest of the site is used for farming.
