Station Six-Sahara is a 1962 British-West German drama film directed by Seth Holt and starring Carroll Baker, Peter van Eyck and Ian Bannen. It is a remake of the 1938 film S.O.S. Sahara, which had been based on a play by Jean Martet.

When an attractive young woman arrives at an isolated oil station in the Sahara Desert, she provokes a growing tension in the male employees.

The film was part of an ambitious plan by the German production firm CCC Films to begin making films in London, which ended after only two releases. The film was reasonably successful on its release in both Britain and Germany.

Contemporary reviewers The Times commented that "for once in a British film some real erotic tension is palpable on the screen", while Dilys Powell described the film as "true cinema".

The film was greatly admired by Martin Scorsese.
