Kanmonkaikyō Mekari Station (関門海峡めかり駅, Kanmonkaikyō-Mekari-eki) is a train station in Moji ward of Kitakyushu, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is on the Mojikō Retro Scenic Line, a heritage railway operated by the Heisei Chikuhō Railway. It is the northernmost train station in Kyushu.

The station name is derived from its position next to the Kanmon Straits and that it's within Mekari Park (和布刈公園).
