Wexford Lifeboat Station is the base for a Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) inshore lifeboat at Wexford in Ireland. The first lifeboat for Wexford Harbour was at Rosslare Fort Lifeboat Station from 1838. A second, larger lifeboat for Wexford was stationed here from 1858 although the smaller lifeboat continued to be known as the Rosslare Fort lifeboat until 1866. The station at Rosslare Fort was closed in 1925 due to coastal erosion, the lifeboat operating from Wexford Quay until 1927 when the station was closed. The RNLI returned to Wexford in 2002 and opened the current station in 2007.
